Today we will wire up the PrintNC with an opensource grblhal board and make the first cuts.
The PrintNC is a high performance, DIY CNC router. It's based on a steel frame to ensure rigidity and uses 3D printed parts to make assembly easy.
The PrintNC project is in active development and community participation is highly encouraged! You can live chat on the PrintNC Discord or head to r/printnc and ask there. Answers are fast and the community is quickly growing!

That thing looks mint. Wanna see it cut a lot more 😎 Does VISA Bob know that a 2.2kw spindle is in the wish list? 🤣🤣

@ChristophLehner Жыл бұрын

Thank you ! I am still undecided if i want to go with a 800hz Gpenny Spindle, or a regular 400hz Rattm Spindle, so Visa Bob has some time to regroup 😅

@pmsilvei Жыл бұрын

@@ChristophLehner what are the advantages on a 800hz VS 400hz? 🤔 I got a 2.2kw 400hz and I like it a lot. BTW, my machine design is similar, but built on top of a concrete base for sound dampening. It all started with a little 3018 pro lol This things take all my money... 🤣

@ChristophLehner Жыл бұрын

@@pmsilvei the 800hz spindle has more torque in the low rpm range, so better for cutting metal, but it is more expensive.... can you elaborate on your concrete design? is it a concrete table?

@pmsilvei Жыл бұрын

@@ChristophLehner thank you for explaining dude. Yes, the whole base is concrete, Y axis linear rails and ballscrews are attached to it. Made the mould, filled it with concrete and metal reinforcements, anchor points for mounting stuff on it, etc... Painted black 😁👍🏼

@@ChristophLehner besorgst du dir dann auch den passenden FI? Der sollte ja dann ein Typ B sein der selbst ca. 400€ kostet. Wenn die Anlage eine Nullung als Fehlerschutz hat kann man darauf verzichten glaube ich (wenn das Gerät nicht gesteckt ist). Wenn man den FU anstecken will muss der Typ B als Zusatzschutz verbaut werden. (Österreich... ÖNORM).

@fletcherenfield9474 Жыл бұрын

Doubt you'll see this, but someone else might. M8 or M12 (possibly even M5 for the endstops) connectors could work well instead of Aviation connectors. They're commonly used in industrial applications and they come in solder cup, crimp-on, and screw terminal variants. They also come with up to 17 poles and you can even get them with strain relief, colour coding, and interrupted threads, etc.

Christoph, is the spindle clamp 3D printed? And, if so, what filament material did you use? Nylon? Thank you.

@ChristophLehner Жыл бұрын

Yes, it was PETG, after i crashed hard the first time, i reprinted it in PLA. It's kinda nice to have a failsafe, since the clamp breaks before any serious damage is done

@ChristophLehner Жыл бұрын

Roughly 1400€ without the spindle/router since i had already a makita rt0700c. Imo you can't really go cheaper, i bought the steel as offcuts, most of the other stuff was also second hand. Realistically you spend 1.5k without and 2k€ with a 2.2kW Spindle.
