[Emc-users] using Emc2 for VMC
I am researching on using EMC2 controller in a real VMC. I have some base knowledge about EMC2. But I wonder much about HW that I will use to connect with the EMC2. I see some HW in the web linuxcnc.org. But I don't know what kind is the most suitable for VMC and has a good price. Please give me some advices about the HW, especially about motion card that use to control servo motors - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
[Emc-users] If I can use M5i20 for 3 axes milling CNC Machines with servo motors
I have a project using EMC2 as a controller for a 3 axes milling CNC Machine, that is a real tool machine using in mechanical industry. I have driver for the servo motors and now I have choose a motion card to control the servo motors. But when I see CNC machine that are controlled by EMC, these machines are almost small machine that use step motors to make motion. In my project, the Servo motor is obliged. Although there are some motion cards supporting for servo motors, for example m5i20 or servo-to-go, but I don't know what card is suitable for my project. so I need some one, who give me a advice about the good motion card for my project and please give me some practical machines using this card. I really need it because I have to prove that card features is appropriate for my project with my supervisor. - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

[Emc-users] Please show me exactly how emc2 work
I spent much time to find the way emc2 works. but I have just built the simple structure diagrams of EMC2 that includes files and some their tasks .But I don't understand clearly about the flow of EMC2. I want to know more about how EMC2 can control everything in CNC machine, for example, exchanging information between GUI and motion,io, task controller... I really need a guide from experienced people to understand exactly how emc2 works and what happen in internal parts of EMC2,especially what the NML's role in EMC2...

[Emc-users] rtapi and NML
Please tell me the different between rtapi and NML. As my opinion, rtapi make a realtime environment for EMC in linux system. But there is a urtapi in EMC2, I want to know where the urtapi applied and what it supports. if the way that rtapi operates is send and receive message from realtime componets. if that is right, please tell me how rtapi process these message. About NML, a good friend tell me that its task simply is copy and paste structured data from block of shared memory to communicate when using in distributed networked systems. But I wonder if I do not use EMC in those systems, whether I need NML file or not. the last my question, does NML library support for realtime environment in linux platform as rtapi does Please reply me soon - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

I have some trouble with the step motor The first, After reading Hal tutorial I saw a stepgen in Hal component. I wonder if I can using it to control 5 phase stepper without using step drivers. If can what I should do. Please give me gradually because I am beginner in controlling motors. The second, I found the 6 wire stepper, with some extra information are: miniangle stepper type 23Lm - k307 - P3, P/N AX050039A, 1.8, 3V/phase, 1.7A/phase.

[Emc-users] interrating emc2 with a motion card
I have some questions about integrating emc2 with a 3 axis milling machine. The first, I understand that emc2 implements algorithm control in the computer, such as imterpolation, trajectory..., then send controlling signal to hardware. If I have a motion card that responds motion control, how do I integrate it with emc2 interface. The second, I want using a recommended hardware in my CNC machine. My machine is a industrial machine, using servo motors for axes and DC motor for spindle. Please tell me what is the best card I should use in my machine, mesa, pico... the third, I read some code for emc2 interface - writed in python language - I see some lib imported in the program such as *from Tkinter import * from minigl import * from rs274.OpenGLTk import * from rs274.glcanon import GLCanon from hershey import Hershey from propertywindow import properties import rs274.options import nf import gcode import locale from math import hypot, atan2, sin, cos, pi, sqrt from rs274 import ArcsToSegmentsMixin import emc* please tell me the role of each library. And how do i use the code to create a interface on windows. What the python package and library I should use. The fouth, I want using emc2 in a remote control with a interface runing on windows emvironment, and core control runing in linux. what could i do that. -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
