While I was typing this, I figured out how to overcome my main issue of rotating 2.5 times when it should have been one.
Now, while it is rotating, it is very sticky/jerky.
Pulse rev on controller=2000, rotary setup=2000
Current 3.5 Amps
I have tried adjusting Y axis max speed and acceleration way up and down, but no difference.
I saw a video that I can no longer find showing someone changing the pulse rev dip switches to something else make it work better. I also read somewhere that adjusting the amps will affect the jumping, but I can’t find it either… Dohh.
The motor is warm but feels the same as the X.
Thank you, sir. Yes I am using Y. There is no nameplate or any marking on the motor. It is a ComMarker ComMarker D80 Rotary
I have looked everywhere for the specs and have come up empty.
When hooked to my Com Marker B4 fiber, it works great. The steps per rotation are 12,800. I’m not sure if that will help with the diagnosis.
I thought I had it working pretty well, but I was just using 5x5mm test squares. When I increased that to 15mm square, the left and right sides (Y axis) became wavy. The square is just a square from lightburn, so it should be perfect. You can also see it is really bad on the fonts. I’m about out of ideas at this point…ugh.
I honestly don’t know. I started back at default, speeds back to stock, 2000 SPR and it worked, on the correct size anyway. I think the wavy has been there the whole time, I was focused on the rotation jumps and didn’t really see that. I tried turning off scanning offset as I do use one normally, and no help. I’m at a loss as to why the sides are that way now. If I do a line, the square is perfect, something in the fill…but what?
Thanks for the help. I am usually good at figuring these things out and have been at this a while, but this one, totally stumped, my brain hurts.
