Hey guys, going to try and be as clear as possible. Having some major issues and hoping you someone can help me out
I installed a new Avid CNC plug and play ESS controller on my 13'x6' machine. This machine has Dual Y axis motors
Z works perfect
X works perfect
Y1 is extremely slow compared to Y2
Y2 works perfect
To try and troubleshoot we did the following:
-Changed the speed on the B & A (y1) axis to 3x that of the Y2 and Y1 was still slow compared- causing the gantry to torque.
-Set all speeds across all 6 axis to 600 IPM 25 Acceleration and it sped up the Y2 and Y1 but differential was still the same
-Changed the speed on Y1 (A&B) to double that of Y2 and it increased the speed on Y2
My guess is there is some setting inside of Mach 3 that I am not aware of- New to CNC programming and this is the first machine we have built. I have attached setting pictures of the motor tuning, and videos of what the machine is doing.
The only other things I can think of would be:
Remove the setup slave axis?
Gear ratio the same?
Ports in ports and pins are incorrect.
Motor Tuning?
Here is the link the system we bought.
