Title

A variable resistor that can be connected as a voltage divider, or as a variable resistance. Leads are intended for through hole. The wiper of the potentiometer is moved between the leads to create a variable resistance. Connect the outer leads to GND and VCC and the middle lead to the output voltage to create a voltage divider. To create a variable resistance, the resistance will be across one of the outer leads and the middle lead.

  • Where can I get a motor driver "TX14207", or a substitute with instructions?

    I would recommend using our 5.6 amp driver as a replacement for the TX14207 driver. Apparently, those drivers are found in the 6040 CNC routers and will not contain documentation since it is typically sold as a part of a greater assembly. Here is the link to the recommended driver: https://buildyourcnc.com/item/electronicsAndMotors-stepper-driver-6!0a

  • What is each axis' resolution for the blueChick in mm or �m?

    The resolution for any of our machines is based on the driver microsetting setting and the machanical parts used for each axis. For example: The blueChick uses 9 tooth drive sprockets for the x and y axes. To determine resolution use this formula: Resolution = steps / inch or the travel in steps for one revolution of the drive sprocket Steps = (motor steps) * (driver microsteps) or natural motor steps * microstepping setting on the driver Inches = t(ooth coun)t *( tooth pitch) or the number of teeth for the drive sprocket Resolution = ((motor steps) * (microsteps)) / (teeth * pitch) In this example, the microsteps is 16 and the pitch is .25 inches = (200 * 16) / (9 * .25") = 3200 / 2.25" = 1422.222 steps per inch For the z axis of the blueChick, the resolution is typically based on 4 micro steps and the travel for one turn of the motor is 1/2". Therefore: Resolution = (200 * 4) / .5" = 800 / .5" = 1600 steps per inch

  • What are the overall dimensions for a greenbull 5x10

    The overall size (Foot Print(Roughly)) is: W: 90" x L: 142.5" x H: 35" Height: Is from table top to highest point and not from the floor to highest point.(H for the 5X/6X can vary in size due to the height of the table/frame, since it can be adjusted to the specific needs of the customer)).

  • There are no instructions on how to assemble the laser control unit housing that came with my 40w blacktooth laser kit. How can I get instructions for how to assemble the control interface housing? Every configuration I try blocks the wire connection ports.

    What laser controller model number do you have? Additional Information: Hey - the model number on the laser controller is AWC708C S/N:708014243 Additional Information: Thanks for the model number. I am going to fabricate the parts and put it together myself to see the issue. We made this modification to the blackTooth laser cutter to better house the new laser controller that we wanted to add to the laser, but that may have been for the AWC608. If there is an issue with my assembly, we will create a new part that will correct the issue and send it to you. Additional Information: Thank you for the update! Additional Information: Have you had a chance to duplicate the issue yet?

  • my 40w blacktooth laser kit with laser control unit only came with one controller connector, but the unit has two controller ports. Should I have two wires or do I just use controller port number one?

    What is the model number of the laser controller? Additional Information: Hey - the model number on the laser controller is AWC708C S/N:708014243 Additional Information: Do you need any additional information here? I really want to get going on it this weekend! Additional Information: Sorry about that. If you are referring to the CN1 and CN2 connector, I don't believe it is needed if it didn't come with the connector. The components that we send to the customer is the same package that is sent from the manufacturer of the product. I would try connecting it to the CN1 connector of both units and test the interface (control panel). Additional Information: The manual for the AWC 708 shows the two ports CN1 and CN2 connected, but that may just be for thorough documentation if the CN2 is needed for some reason. Do you have a copy of the manual or know where to find it? If not, I will put the document link here.

  • How far does the X axis of the blackfoot travel per turn of the stepper motor ?

    The amount traveled per turn in our blackFoot, will be dependent on the steps per inch settings that you will implement to your drivers and within the software (mach3 (ex)) motor tunning: steps per inch/ 1422.22, 1/4 on your driver will give you a different distance if used as 1/2 or 1/8 etc. Here is a in depth tutorial on how to find the correct steps per inch for a specifications: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vY26CIrVwg)

  • How do I configure my control program (i.e. Mach3, EMC2, etc.) for roller chain or timing belt steps per inch?

    First, you will need to know the pitch of the roller chain, or timing belt. For example, #25 roller chain is .25" (1/4") pitch and #40 roller chain is .5" (1/2") pitch. Timing belts are similar and you will need to search the specifications of your particular drive pulley pitch. Take this pitch and multiply this with the number of teeth on the drive pulley/sprocket. This will give you the number of inches around the pulley/sprocket. Now, take the number of steps per revolution that the motor will output. This will be the number of full steps that you motor produces (typically 200, or 1.8 degrees per step) multiplied by the microstepping per step to which the driver is configured. Divide this number by the inches that was calculated from the drive pulley/sprocket. Here is an example: If the motor produces 200 steps per revolution and I am driving it at 1/16 microstepping and my sprocket pitch is .25" with 9 teeth, my formula would be: (200 steps * 16 microsteps) / (.25 inches * 9 teeth) = 3200 steps per revolution / 2.25 inches = 1422.222 steps per inch Additional Information:
