Unseen in that snapshot is a slight timing width glitch in one pulse of the 39 that make one revolution, the result of the outer end of the index slot being about 2 thou wider than the main slots are, so I need to move the index slot to a position between 2 main slots, and increase the inner diameter of the main slots by perhaps 20 thou at the same time as it was difficult to get main slot noise out of the index output unless the outer edge of the wheel was audibly touching the center web of that opto device. With very careful adjustment, this one works.
Pix of this disk attached, much 'cleaner' carving this time, no blackening needed apparently. I get these pix from my old scanner and they are only about 22k before being base64'd. I have to open up the head of the mill and replace much of the nylon howlers in there, the key slots in the hubs are pretty wobbled out, about 1/4 turn of play in the drive these days. I will investigate the possibility of hiding another similar encoder in there at the same time. I'll not toss the old ones too quickly as its probably 99% in the gear on the spindle shaft & it might be feasable to cut a steel hub with fingers filling the casting webs of the old gear, which s/b a forever fix for that, forever being whatever it takes to outlast me. :) Would there be any interest in my making up any more of these opto assemblies once I get what I need done? Say at $75 a copy so its a wheel that wouldn't need to be invented again? The opto's are on .400" centers & once adjusted, s/b pretty darned stable. I've temporarily replaced my router with a Buffalo Nfinity Hi-power running dd-wrt, which means my web page is offline until I figure out how to ssh into it and fix the port forwarding, it seems the help menu, which is not a close able menu, is sitting on top of the enable checkbox in the gui for port forwarding setups. If anyone asks, I can re-install the old one for a day or 2, which should restore that. Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
