Hello everybody,
My team and I noticed something a bit unusual in the designer's behavior regarding the shift angle (at the end of each group in the G-code file):
What we are seeing here is that on line 57 (where the shift angle occurs), A = 1444.56, which is different from 1419.56 + 29.62 = 1449.18.
Let’s remove the numerical values for clarity.…
Dear Team / Mr. Turner,
We work from the university with the 23-4X XWinder.
In 2-axis mode everything works but as soon as we go into 4-axis mode there are problems.
The DH always stops at each end for a very long time and winds unnecessary material at the ends.
It seems as if the program gets stuck there or lags unnaturally.
In contrast to us, the winding in your videos is a nice fluid movement.
I saw in the blog that you said there are problems with Windows…
I have a problem when starting 3-axis and 4-axis winding. Before starting, the elements move to their home positions and pressing the switches.
The carriage and DHR bounce after pressing the switch, but DHL remains on the pressed switch. After that, instead of moving towards the mandrels,
DHL starts pressing on the switch trying to break through it. At this point I…
Greetings,We are a group of undergraduate students who are currently working on the winding of a pressure vessel. We have successfully assembled the machine and calibrated it to account for any offsets. During our initial tests using the trace function to ensure proper alignment, everything appeared to be in order. However, we encountered difficulties when attempting to initiate the 4-axis hemi end winding process.To kickstart this process, the machine's executor homes it, aligning itself with…

Read more…We are working with a 4-axis x-winder in 2X mode. We have successfully wound a 3.5-inch mandrel many times however are now struggling to wind a ~12-inch mandrel (we have the 16" expansion kit). The software claims to be 100% done with the wind but in reality, the part is 95% done (see photos). Has anyone else had this problem when working with larger mandrels? We have done multiple winds with the same result. Thanks for any ideas!
Read more…Probably a simple problem, but I can't find a solution to it...I have trouble setting up the correct mandrel drive in the executor. My setup is a left-hand drive, but for some reason I can't switch it in the settings. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for help in advance!
