Hi, This is the soldering robot I have. It is based on a general purpose robot, mainly used for applying glues, pastes etc. Mine has a soldering head on it. http://homanndesigns.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=53:selective-soldering-machine-mach3-&catid=35:smt&Itemid=55
I year or so ago I converted it to run under Mach3 as the original interface was such a pain, as it only had a teach mode. The conversion is detailed here. http://homanndesigns.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=55:selective-soldering-robot-conversion-to-mach3&catid=34:cnc-projects&Itemid=55 http://homanndesigns.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=65:selective-soldering-robot-conversion-to-mach3-and-smooth-stepper-part-2&catid=34:cnc-projects&Itemid=55 http://homanndesigns.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=66:selective-soldering-robot-conversion-to-mach3-and-smooth-stepper-part-3&catid=34:cnc-projects&Itemid=55 Cheers, Peter On 9/05/2015 1:18 PM, Jon Elson wrote: > On 05/08/2015 11:16 AM, Marcus Bowman wrote: >> On 8 May 2015, at 16:46, Jon Elson wrote: >> >>> Not bad!
