GrblGru: 5-axis CNC machine controlled with GrblHAL

[@mysticmarble94]

Awesome to see new CNC open source projects that haven't been abandoned years ago. 👏👏👏

[@inlemofu]

A Due does speed up the surface scanning, right? Which cnc shield should one use best? Apart from this, are you planing sth for using esp32?

[@ngocsut]

such a good new for grblgru lovers, i'm waiting for atc intergrated

[@LevshaYT]

Great job! Especially interested in turning functions. Do you think a spindle encoder can be connected to the Arduino due? I didn't find this information on the GrblHal page. Thank you for your work!

[@grblgru]

Thank you, I have not been able to try everything yet either. But I hope, like you, that the operation is possible with a spindle encoder for threading. :)

[@adammarkowski4360]

Hello. I use G33 on my lathe. But you have to write g-code by hand. It would be nice to add something like this to work templates. Regards

[@grblgru]

Please have a look at the macros in GrblGru. You can use them to create your own small GCode programs and call them up at any time at the push of a button. I use them very often on the lathe for various tasks.

[@owenjones9608]

How does GrblHAL compare to Mega5X? Faster, better processor, easier, more functions, more stable etc? Thanks!

[@grblgru]

I also have little practical experience with GrblHAL. But the advantage of the 32-bit technology is clearly noticeable. You can also move polygons with a lot of points at high speed without feed fluctuations. In addition, there are a lot of functions, especially in the lathe mode, which are not available in Mega-5X.

[@АлексейОзеран]

You are just super! Pay for more turning video.....! For metal, not everything is clear .... about the thread, is it possible to assemble 5 axes on a lathe with a Mega 2560! And in the future add tool change, milling and much more! Greetings from UKRAINE! And respect for your work!

[@grblgru]

Thank you, I still have a lot to learn about GrblHAL. But I'm looking forward to trying out everything new. :)

[@alfredanil]

Will GrblHAL support RADDS board on Due?

[@grblgru]

Sorry, but I am not a controller expert. I recommend you to ask the GrblHAL developer Terje Io on his GitHub page. I'm sure he can answer your question. github.com/grblHAL/core/wiki

[@FelixSamulevich]

If software can take into account postprocessor of machine ?

[@MotoChassisByTonyFoale]

You have a video using STM32 and this one with the Due. Does one have better performance or features than the other?

[@grblgru]

I have not done a real performance test. One difference, however, is that the DUE has many more pins for switching inputs/outputs and is correspondingly more expensive.

[@MotoChassisByTonyFoale]

@@grblgru Many thanks for the quick answer. What about the ESP32 on grblHAL, have you done anything with those? I ask because I use the ESP32 for several projects such as my "It's not CNC lathe" kzbin.info/www/bejne/jaqqZX-FfJ14nKM kzbin.info/aero/PLyn2snGjYlHwvzi0ztHJVwwFANxyTc2Kj

[@povilasvaiciulis7931]

is it still beaing developed is is there example about automatic tool change ? video or information ?

[@grblgru]

No, I don't have a special tool change function yet. But you can program buttons with the macro functions that make this possible. See kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6jHk5uEaJeaY5Y

[@Engineerd3d]

Top notch stuff. Wonderful to see it develop.

[@leonardoalterisio6514]

hi...the grbl support the backlash ?....tks

[@grblgru]

GrblHAL can handle backlash, unlike Mega 5X. But I have not been able to try it out myself yet.

[@doityourselfhelle]

Ein interessantes Teil der Arduino DUE! Leider wieder mit meinem Ramps 1.6 Board nicht kompatiebel. Welche Treiber oder welches Erweiterungsboard hast Du verwendet? Vielen Dank und viele Grüße!

[@grblgru]

Ich habe kein Board, das man direkt auf den Controller stecken kann, sondern separate Treiber, die über Kabel angesteuert werden. Wenn du nicht unbedingt GrblHAL brauchst, sieh dir doch auch einmal Mega-5X auf dem Mega an kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKanfGCrodp1bMk

[@doityourselfhelle]

@@grblgru Dankeschön! Das Video hab' ich natürlich schon gesehen 🙂 Ich würde, wenn schon, einen 32 Bit Prozessor bevorzugen. Schwanke zwischen einem Arduino Due und einem Nucleo 64 Board. Mache es abhängig wo ich mehr Informationen dazu finde. Viele Grüße, Helmut

[@dimonius138]

Привет, а почему в версиях программы 4.5 и выше у меня не получается выбрать dxf шаблоны в режиме lathe , в версии 4.2 все шаблоны dxf работают но не получается в режиме резьбы сделать быструю подачу едет но оч медленнл

[@GeorgeZaharia]

now this is why a wood chainsaw sculpture would go eat berries in the forrest cause he will be lost of his job... this 5 axis thing is insane :O

[@iangraham6730]

Looking forward to this!

[@orac229]

I was very impressed with the program. I downloaded and build a lathe. The problem I have is my controller board has 2 axis, X and Y. ( no Z because Z is up and down and not required on a lathe), I built the lathe with Y as the main axis. Your program uses Z as the main axis. Can the program or setting be changed so the coordinate system uses Y instead of Z ??

[@grblgru]

In the settings you can enter mapping names for the axes in chapter 4 "GCode". But then only the axis names in the interface to the controller will be changed. Within GrblGru everything remains unchanged.

[@orac229]

@@grblgru Thank you for the reply. I hope to have the lathe finished in a few weeks, so I hope to "master" your program by then :)

[@ZuNunchaku]

can you release portable version? i want to use grblgru in fdisk. so i can use on any computer

[@grblgru]

Sorry, but I don't know how to do that. But the installation takes only a few seconds. So you can quickly "make happy" a new computer.

[@ZuNunchaku]

@@grblgru the problem if I tweaking any macro on one computer, I need to update the rest of the computer, and it little bit pain in the ass. not to mention i need to redefine any machine dimensions. Any way thanks for the software ❤️

[@rusticagenerica]

Why Arduino DUE?

[@Putelquelee]

great Job!!!. greetings from Argentina. I like it.

[@grblgru]

Thanks :)

[@kelvinkweka574]

it good. but how can i learn how to make my own 5 axis CNC machine.

[@grblgru]

Have a look at the documentation file on my website

[@adanwarlog9356]

Te apoyo 👍 eres un excelente maestro

[@mastube9184]

please tutorial install stm32 minimal blackpill GRBLHal 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@alo1236546]

Sir any plan for Pi pico rp2040

[@grblgru]

Please ask the GrblHAL developer Terje Io on his GitHub page. He can surely help you. github.com/grblHAL/core/discussions

[@alexchiosso221]

Really an Impressive Implementation. A big step forward. it seems to use a similar approach (HAL management) to FluidNC software based on an ESP32. Any feedback about the performances of a real machine using this kind of package? Thanks for the hard work. :-)

[@grblgru]

I have only just started using GrblHAL on my milling machine, so I can't say much about it yet. But the 32-bit advantage is obvious.

[@alexchiosso221]

@@grblgru Thank you for the kind reply. Are you using an original Arduino DUE or a clone ? In case you're using a clone is the board stable and reliable?

[@grblgru]

I currently use an original Arduino DUE. But in the meantime I have successfully put an STM32 (Bluepill) into operation. If you only need the signals for clock and direction, this is of course much cheaper.

[@alexchiosso221]

@@grblgru Thank you very much indeed. GrblGru is just outstanding. :-)
