I had a single y axis ELS system with a tachometer and a hall effect magnet for the encoder. The system worked alright to a degree but was getting skipping issues. So with a great help from Richard Edwards I am going with the modified Russian ELS greatly improved and in English. Initially I was going to adopt the y axis system only but on reflection there not a lot of more work to do the? crossfeed x axis system as well. Almost finished the mechanical side using a? 600 p/r encoder geared 1 to 1 and a nema 23 fixed to the tailstock end 1 to 1 and a nema 23? for the crosslide again 1 to 1 only? the latter is a short version about 55mm long and less torque. Waiting for some more parts and meantime hopefully modifying the arduino sketch for my leadscrew? 2mm pitch and crosslide thread pitch 1mm? and the 600 p/r encoder. t
The spec states? Pulses:600p/r(Single-phase pulses P/r, Two phase 4 frequency doubling to 2400 pulse . Not sure about this should I set the encoder to 2400 in the sketch?
