[Emc-users] execution of gcode commands from a net connection with no gui action
Hi, Sorry if this has been asked before, I didn't find a nice way to search the archives. We have a cnc router (probotix) that we are using to automate electronic parts testing (replacing the router with a vacuum picker assembly.) We will have code on a different computer that runs the tests. A piece of that code will get requests as to which part to get and where to put it. The result of that is to generate gcode that we then want to execute on the linuxcnc machine and get success or error for each command. To start with, we will want to send single gcode commands and wait for the machine to complete them before going on. There are other actions that need to interspersed with the cnc motion, so just sending a program isn't what we need right now. Has anyone written something that can do this? We're fairly flexible on how this works. If the best way is to ssh into the linuxcnc machine and run some command that takes input from standard in, that would be great. A separate tcp/ip listener would be fine as well. If this hasn't been done, would it make sense to do this as a python script with the linuxcnc python interface? thanks, jerry -- Jerry Scharf FINsix IT 650.285.6361 w 650.279.7017 m -- Don't Limit Your Business.

[Emc-users] Latency?
I was testing the latency of this computer and I thought that it was doing pretty good, but over night there were some pretty significant latency spikes. I was afraid this was going to happen, it is an HP-Compaq dc5750 and the bios has virtually zero user settable power settings (the only thing I can find is a setting for idle fan speed).

Re: [Emc-users] Small cnc-controlled chuck
Could you use a larger version of a c5 collet and then make a draw tube with a deep groove ball bearing mounted on the opposite end from the collet. This would allow you to attach a stationary fork to the outer race. Have this fork set up over a pivot point with one end attached to the outer race of the bearing and the other end mounted to a spring to hold collet closed (fail safe if power off or lose of air) and a pneumatic cylinder to push the arm in the opposite direction of the spring to open the collet. Similar to the throughout bearing and slave cylinder arangement on a car clutch. The unturned items could be fed through the tube similar to a bar feeder for a lathe.

Re: [Emc-users] Small cnc-controlled chuck
Does the stock need to feed thru the chuck (like a bar feeder), or will it be individual blanks loaded by the operator? Is the stock round (3-jaw) or square (4-jaw) Googling power lathe chuck will find you lots of chucks that are tightened (with some modest stroke) by a draw-tube, usually controlled by a pneumatic or hydraulic closer. Prices start at $2000 and go up fast. I think they adjust the grip range by removing the upper jaws from the limited-stroke master jaws and re-attaching them further in or out. I'm guessing that this machine will have a CNC controlled rotary axis. If it can do absolute angles (for example, if there is an index pulse on the encoder), you could use a regular lathe chuck (either 3-jaw or 4-jaw self-centering) and rig an auto chuck wrench for it. Short linear slide actuated by a small air cylinder. On the slide, a gearmotor and a square-ended shaft to fit the lathe chuck's key hole. Index the chuck so its key hole is aligned with the slide. Actuate the air cylinder to push the slide in, and slowly rotate the motor/shaft until I microswitch says that the slide is all the way in and the shaft is engaged. Then use the motor to tighten or loosen the chuck. When done, actuate the air cylinder the other way to pull the slide back so the chuck can rotate.

I think that most CNC power 3 jaw chucks are hydraulic. You might be able to find one used and setup an air over hydraulic cylinder to control it so you wouldn't need a running hydraulic power source.

Re: [Emc-users] Small cnc-controlled chuck
Andy's idea made me think; Take a look at a commercial pipe threading machine. They use a variety of a 3 jaw chuck that uses some type of scroll mechanism which is actuated by an external ring which you hold in place. The brand most common around here is Rigid.That setup would not work for accurate metal turning but it might be fine for wood rotary positioning. https://www.ridgid.com/us/en/power-threading-machines They are extremely common and if you can find an older unit you might be able to pick one up cheaply and adapt it.
