Machine modifications

Last week, we designed and assembled our cardboard CNC Tube Cutter, machine. Now we have to automate it. But before programming we modified some pieces of the machine. I worked in the rotary axis, and add a new piece to support the pipe in both ends.

Also i modified the steppers content block, where was the three modules with steppers 2 for X axis and one for rotary,to get it more rigidity.

Automate your machine

My partner programed the gestalt nodes in python, i worked with he for documentation. For that i modified the scheme picture adding details to connect the Fab Net in the gestalt node.

To work in programming, I take care of the interface, I managed to make the interface, but I could not run on Linux, because I had problems with the installation of a library.
