Well, I did the retuning of the drivers. I added much more P and found that the current limit potentiometer wasn't at max. Put everything back together and voilá - not a bloody difference...
When I'm running the test code (up-down 150 times) it's so bad I can actually see that the first line of code lifts the Z-axis too high because the acceleration is too late. Then I also can see that every time Z is supposed to turn at Z0 or Z10 it stops and changes direction mm's before the expected height. This is soooo frustrating! When setting the PID the servo's accelerates so fast I have to clamp the to the bench. When running with the rest of the system it's just poor performance. I do think that my servo's are powerful enough for this machine. It's pretty heavy but when I manually jog an axis it blows away. Now I have to consider getting a bunch of new drivers. Typical, I really need this machine up and running. :( Thanks for all support guys, much appreciated! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
