Does anyone one know where I can find timing pulley in Toronto, Canada? Or is SDP-SI the best option?? The shaft on NEMA 17 motor is 5 mm in Diameter. It seems only sdp-si and robot digg has this.by bluehawk91 - General
Quotecdru RAMPS isn't necessary if he's just hooking up two steppers. It may make any other use of the Arduino harder with the unused RAMPS functionalty taking up pins. As to the design, just remember you'll need to compensate on the z-axis when the x-axis moves. Otherwise when X moves, Z will spin up or down. If you are writing custom firmware to just control the movement and moving only oneby bluehawk91 - General
Quoteejbantz If you're already order from robotdigg, they have stepper drivers, motors, arduino and ramps. It looks like Robotdigg is located in China. Do you know the shipping time and cost to Canada? Can't find that information.by bluehawk91 - General
Hi All, I'm looking to make a linear stage to be used inside an experiment box (acrylic sides and wooden frame). All of our parts that are inside the experiment box have to be non-metallic. This is the design. The motion in y direction is achieved by running both stepper motors in the same direction, whereas only z-direction stepper motor is turned on to get vertical (z) motion.
