DIY- CNC Embroidery Machine

[kiefer]

Hi Marquino ( and other with similar questions),
CNC Embroidery machine was a project with the idea to use G-code ( typical language for a CNC machine) for embroidery machine.
Like I said, this was an idea and never became functional software ( I can tell this, because I helped a lot in this project). So - for you and others, the answer is - there is not a lot of help with this thread.
Maybe Hubordix idea can do something.

Hello friends!
I started to challenge the original Zangs embroidery machine,
I inserted a stepper motor nema 23 and driven it with Mach 3 and Khalid's program for gcode.

I came to the problem with z axis, so I need the g code which I see generated with version 2.4.4 and this version can not find anywhere to download.
Get in the way
G0 X12 Y15 Z10
G0 Z20
G0 X12 Y16 Z30

and I need a code
G0 X12 Y15
G0 Z10
G0 X13 Y16
G0 Z20

so I would like to ask you how you can help us to solve this problem so that the machine can function normally.

Thank you in advance!
Photos are in the attachment.

If the code was open sourced, the community could join together and make this work.

Hello Kuki21 my name is Jose and i´m form Cuba.
I have been reading all post and just finished.

I do not understand very well what is your problem.

If you want to download version 2.4.4, you can do it on page 33 of this thread.

Greetings.

Hello everyone.
After reading the whole thread it is not clear to me some things:

1- Apparently the machine did not work, but I have seen videos of Kalid and Rene that sew in an acceptable way.
If the problem is speed at least I do not care, so with 150 SPM and good job completion, I'm happy.


2- I do not want to use servomotors mainly because I do not have it and it is difficult for me to get it. Anyway I did not understand at all that to increase from 10 in 10 that began to use from the entry of Kiefer. (I do not have much knowledge of servomotors)

In short, if someone could tell me why, after so much effort and work, the cnc embroiderer could not be made.

Greetings to all.

satovey, i can make the code open source but people will take my brain..i am a poor coder with no comments in the code...

"take my brain", do you mean criticize?

I get the no comments issue, I wrote over 2000 lines of code for a website and then one day I decided I wanted to make some mods. Only problem was I didn't comment the code so I couldn't remember what did what and had to go through and figure out what I did. I started commenting my code after that.

If you want to make it open source; don't be concerned with people criticizing you or your code. Even the best get criticized, they just choose to not care about the criticism unless it is coming from someone they respect as a coder.

Those who are interested in maturing your code will be the ones who work on it and will likely add commenting where they make mods..
In the end, Open Sourcing your code and what licensing, whether GPL, LGPL or other, is entirely up to you.

The two primary platforms mostly used for open source projects these days that I'm aware of are: github.com and sourceforge.net though there are others depending on what tools you used to create your projects.

Take care.

Hello Khalid, first of all congratulations on your work, it is impressive.
I have made simulations in my cnc and have achieved speeds of just over 200 SPM in version 2.4.8 assuming that each turn of the z axis moves in the DRO 2 units, therefore half a turn 1. For me that speed is fine , however I have not yet decided to build the embroiderer because I do not understand why it did not work what you were doing (I must be missing something). If you could spend 5 minutes of your time explaining, I would appreciate it.
Greetings from CUBA. Joseph.

hello

[Marquino]

Thank you for your clarification kiefer, I have been able to contact Mr. Hubordix and he has given me some alternatives based on microcontrollers and Arduino.

[shahcnc]

Hi all members may I get the final prototype of this embroidery machine to built one?
Thanks

You did not answer my last message! my question was she stupid?
Since I changed the sewing machine, but my problem is always the same.
So I ask you again humbly (being zero in programming) if it was possible that you leave free the incrementation value of "Z" for example for me, with my new machine, a half cycle is worth "0.575" and therefore the cycle complete "1.150". I do not see any other solution to my problem. Your program is already great, you did a great job. Thank you
cordially
Phil

how to adjust the speed of sewing machine motor. with the x and y axis motors

[lasri]

distancex=donne
distancey=donne
speed of sewing/3=speedxy( =donne)
speedxy=distance/timer

timerx=temery =timer

distance=sqrt(pow(distancex)+pow(distancey))
timer=distance/speedxy

speedx=distancex/timer
speedy=distancey/timer
