If I try and HOME I get a weblink reprapfirmware.org message - but can’t find a guide for this stage…

Any help/suggestion?

i’m trying to do some pocket cuts on Workbee CNC and during cut in a middle of pocket CNC stops briefly, looks like it’s trying to move but just makes barely visible “shaking”. After what following cutting resumes being missaligned and in wrong depth.

After checking Events log i found quite few errors saying “Error: Filename too long: cap=120, dir=0:/www/…….”. Errors seems to be appearing every 1 or 3 minutes during cut till i stop it when it becomes missaligned.

What could be causing this issue?

Thanks.

I’m getting non-repeatable z-axis homing. If I set the work z height, then home, then return to work position it is often substantially different. I’ve used a clock gauge to check and it sometimes over 0.5mm difference!

The z switch is tight and making contact, though the lever looks a bit flimsy for the task. I’ve also checked the z couplings.

Any help would be great.

Thanks

Rich.

I’m at the stage I’m trying to attach the router, but I think I’m either missing a part or I have something installed wrong.

In the box with the Router came the dust guard, but the 65mm 3D printed collar doesn’t fix inside the guard and I’m a little confused on how the collar would be clamped to the mount as there isn’t a way to attach it via the four screws. Do need to disregard the collar and just clamp the router via the M8-Cap-Head-25mm Bolt on the mount?

Thanks for the reply

Please can you let me know how can I set the machine in such way that it stops in the exact point where it actually finishes the job? In other words I do not want the machine to go to workzero after completing the job.

Appreciate if you advice.

I checked with the person who manages our network (ethernet) and they confirmed that when connected to a known good ethernet cable and port the board was responding to ping commands. But when scanned it showed a weird response on the web-server port, in their words the scanning software reported the web server as active but it wasn’t sure about it.

Then I took a stupid step. Lacking non-network methods for updating firmware I went to the Duet site and followed their instructions for installing firmware over USB. This involved formatting the SD card, and idiotically I did not make a backup. After the wipe, copying their card image, and configuring the correct IP address over USB, I was still not able to connect over the network.

At this point, I’m requesting a known good SD card image to burn and verify that this is not a software issue before I move on to exploring hardware related failures.

When I first tested the y axis movement the whole gantry went out of square and there were a lot of mechanical ‘complaints’ from things binding and griding.

I did a quick read and discovered that I hadn’t tensioned things with the little hand wheel.

This was done and the gantry now moves straight without the binding and grinding, but I’ve got some nasty sqeaking noises that come and go as the lead screws turn.

The noise seems to be from the Y plates - I’m guessing something to do with the ACME nut blocks. The wheels seemed fine during the initial mechanical build.

I’m presuming that this is a common set up issue and I’d like to avoid disassembling too much in a random attempt to fix it!

Any help appreciated!

Are these compatible with the work bee or are there others recommended?

I’m looking to buy the Original Workbee Duet Kit, not as an upgrade but to build a new machine.

I see this kit comes with limit switches, but do these also include the mounts as I don’t have them yet.

If not, can they be ordered separately?

Thanks!
