Some of those large, high-end Japanese names have temperature sensors installed throughout the frame, which they use to compensate for thermal expansion.
Curious if anyone has ever done that with LinuxCNC? Steel thermal expansion coefficient is around 6 parts per million per degree Fahrenheit, which would come to roughly 3 tho on a 2-foot part with a 20°F temperature swing. The frame on a production machine gets quite warm, as all those KWs have to go somewhere... > On Jul 15, 2020, at 9:52 PM, Jon Elson <el...@pico-systems.com> wrote: > > On 07/15/2020 09:03 PM, Stuart Stevenson wrote: >> Looks like a Yasnac control.
