Re: Solid V Wheel bearings
Could it possibly because of stray current running thru the bearings. Try measuring current between the frame and the bearings.

Re: Solid V Wheel bearings
Lasers aren't exactly heavy duty machines, maybe not use the breaker bar when torquing things up?
Plenty of 3D printers use plastic bearings & v-grooves, they seem to work fine.
Not sure why you'd

Re: Solid V Wheel bearings
"You might want to just replace the deformed plastic bearings with steel bearings."
That's what I'm thinking of doing.
I'm looking at open builds as a source,
any sources you know of off hand?

Re: Solid V Wheel bearings
Scott, all materials do that. Though in steel, it takes much heavier loads. If you need non-metallic bearings you might want to try ceramic bearings. They'll be a little more resistant to plastic

Solid V Wheel bearings
Hi, My name is Scott.
I joined this group to ask a couple questions regarding bearings as I ran into an odd scenario over this past month.
Bearings deforming while sitting around doing nothing.

Re: converting xy cartesian G code to polar coordinate G code
Why not use LinuxCNC? It can take in Cartesian G-code and move generic robots with a variety of kinematics such as a SCARA-type design.

converting xy cartesian G code to polar coordinate G code
Has anyone created a excel spreadsheet or know of a program that will take XY g code and convert it to polar coordinate g code using G 16. I\m building a scar robotic arm and need such a program.

Re: X carve control and gcode recommendations
Fusion seems to be the hobbyist choice of free software nowadays and can create G-Code for a lot of different targets.

X carve control and gcode recommendations
My robotics club has a Grizzly G8689 mini mill converted to CNC (G540 and MACH3, d2nc for CAM) and recently acquired an X-Carve unit.? The X-carve has a GRBL (arduino based) controller and needs
