  • PCBway helped alot developing the PCBs and I think they deserve a little fanart for their great work.
    The total cut took three hours. This is very slow and based on the feedback shown on the UI scope it should be possible to adjust the settings to make it in 1 hour.
    The settings file is the same that made the 30mm cut and seems bulletproof. Not a single issue on this cut except one related to the mechanics.
    The X axis belt walked off the idler bearings and finally fully popped off the pulley. That happened at the bottom of the W and from there on the X position is a little off. Shit happens.
    I'm doing the recordings with a smartphone and had to swap the clips to the PC multiple times. That is why there are cuts.
    Next cut will hunt the max speed.

      Thanks. Let's see how it operates in different hands.

    Do you want it done fast or do you want it done right is always a decision :-) The belt walking is likely due to shafts not being totally parallel to each other, the washer is a good solution at these speeds.

      Took three hours but will last a lifetime. You're right on that, but three hours is too much. The printed belt has some blobs and the guide bearings are on the outer edge. I increased the tension before the cut and the belt walked a little over the bearing edge creating side drift. Will design a printed idler housing for the bearings. The washer solution is just temporary.
