DM556 = TB6600 Stepper driver issue October 21, 2024 04:40PM |
Registered: 12 years ago Posts: 17 |
Hello,
I have build a CNC machine using latest Marlin firmware 2.1.2.4.
I use a Arduino Mega 2560 board.
I have DM556 stepper drivers and I selected TB6600 as stepper driver in the software.
I can do homing X , Y and Z and the motors run smoothly.
The Marlin settings are: (from CNCJS host program)
Linear Units:
G21 ; (mm)
Temperature Units:
M149 C ; Units in Celsius
Steps per unit:
M92 X640.00 Y640.00 Z3200.00
Max feedrates (units/s):
M203 X200.00 Y200.00 Z20.00
Max Acceleration (units/s2):
M201 X10.00 Y10.00 Z2.00
Acceleration (units/s2) (P R T):
M204 P0.00 R0.00 T0.00
Advanced (B S T X Y Z):
M205 B20000.00 S0.50 T0.50 X5.00 Y5.00 Z0.30
Home offset:
M206 X0.00 Y0.00 Z0.00
Z-Probe Offset:
M851 X0.00 Y0.00 Z0.00 ; (mm)
But here comes the issue: I can only move the X Y or Z axis AFTER a M220 S30 command and then the axis move normally.
When I do not give the 220 S30 (meaning the feedrate is at 100 %) the motors squeal with a short high pitch sound and the motors practically do not move.
I attached my configuration.h and configuration_adv.h
I have spend weeks on this issue but I cannot solve it. I hope that somebody can give some directions?
Thank you in advance!

All,
Today I found out that Marlin 1.1.8 works good with TB6600 stepper drivers but later versions do not....

The only issue I have left now is that the software does not see my Z max endstop (which worked with Marlin V 2.1)

All,
also the Zmax missing is solved: (In the pins_3DRAG.h file from Marlin 1.1.8 the Zmax is standard defined as
#define Z_MAX_PIN -1
that should be #define Z_MAX_PIN 19
So every body who is struggling with a CNC machine consisting of a Arduino Mega 2560 board, NEMA 23 motors and DD556 (=TB6600) stepper drivers switch to Marlin 1.1.8 and not higher!
(also do not use bugfixes)!
Your motors will do the right distances.
In a lot of open source firmwares NC endstops are a hell to implement but with Marlin it is quite simple.
It took me months to find out this solution I hope it saves you time.
