[shortyjk95]

I would like to find out about it on your site but it's not English :( how much Is the kit???!!!!

[Blaze5594]

Do you have a board that will control 3 stepper motors? I am in need of everything but the stepper motors. What do you suggest?

[ideegeniali]

@Blaze5594 Cobra board is the best options if you want to use your own stepper motors

[Psychokiller16]

Hi, Imfrom slovakia, would it be possible tosend me one of those through mail -so I can pay when it arrives ?

[ideegeniali]

@Psychokiller16 No cash on delivery for outside italy at the moment. I'm sorry. But you can pay with credit card, paypal or bank wire transfer.

[rudoatlas]

hi, please write me how much does this kit costs. I am about to build my own cnc router, but it must be cheap as hell :-)

[ideegeniali]

@rudoatlas It's cheap, indeed. And not much powerful, of course... There also more powerful boards, that cost more...

[loko95ftp]

what is it soupposed to do just move wtf i can do that with some moters and some AA batteries and no programsing skills :)

[ideegeniali]

@loko95ftp well, you see they don't move always clockwise, but they move back & forth, see, that's not that easy to to with the batteries alone :) however, I agree that a motor that does back & forth is useless and won't move your car towards its destination, while one that keeps rotating in the same direction is more useful, so your AA cells approach is definetively better than this board :-D On next release, I'll just put batteries on the board instead of microchips. Thanks for suggestion!

[loko95ftp]

@ideegeniali

yea you go head and do that make sure you use duck tape :)

[freakyflow]

@loko95ftp lol you do know what CNC machinning is yes?

[baloneyjazz]

@loko95ftp ever heard of CNC?

[jgore27]

what CAM is available for the DIY crowd in the 4 or 5 axis range that will not cast an arm and a leg? <$1000

[SCRTpilot]

Do you have any idea of how cool this is???

Very.

:)

[ideegeniali]

I'm glad to hear this! I like the cool staff one can do with a cnc machine.

[HeadShot360IN]

@ideegeniali have you done a 3D version of your face? check out Facegen, and if you like it, get the cracked version so that you can export the model to .obj > load it up into your favourit 3D modeling software > export to .STL > open up in a cam software, and generate your g-code.

[Jrobam]

I entered in the web site and I didn't see the price...I want to buy one...

[ideegeniali]

There's an online chart with shopping-basket.

[REbwarto]

where to get stepper motor controllers?or how to build them? i dont know nothing about it .pls helpppp.thks

[ideegeniali]

If you want to auto-construct, there are guides online.

If you want to buy, I sell this stuff.

@amoldipina 

[Bojanpzs1]

did you connect that to your PC?

if you did HOW?

[ideegeniali]

Yep! With a printer cable to LPT1 port. The use Mach3 for Windows XP or KellyCam4 for Windows 98 or Emc2 for Linux or TurboCnc for Dos or McCnc for McIntosh to control it. There is other software as well. I just mentioned the most popular per o.s. choice here. Foamworks or cenece or gmfc are other popular choices to cut foam via cnc'ed hot-wire.

[Stubby0266]

I don't see the website address. Could you provide it again.

Thanks

[ideegeniali]

It's overimposed on video...

[thunderair]

I wanna a buy one of those 5 axis can you send me some information about price

[ideegeniali]

Just contact me on website

[varalicar1]

Come poso constatarvi ?

[prestondocks]

I don't see any heat sink/disipation on the driver board. Will the setup shown drive a CNC machine without over heating or burning out. I am interested in purchasing if the price is still 99 Euros but want to be sure it is up to the job.

[ideegeniali]

No heat sinks. Still air natural convection is sufficient for heat sinking in this setup. This kit does move a machine. It's cheap, but slow and not that powerful, of course. See watch?v=SOawhHCKeMs for example. Price didn't change in the last 3 years.

[ideegeniali]

I think DC motors are most suitable for moving door than stepper motors.

[adisharr]

Stepper motors would not be a good choice to move a door.

[happygamestvfun1]

@adisharr Well depends on the size of the door, stoper motors aint bad if used with gears

[cybertpad18]

Do you reckon those motors can rotate doors? I'm planning some inteligent home system and I was looking for something like this.

[walter232221]

Hello, your site is not available anymore, but I really want to get a setup like this. Do you have any suggestions or are you selling this kit still?

[ideegeniali]

I do! Site is up and running. They sell very well, actually.

[ProfessorBondo]

This looks like a really nice kit! Do you accept payment through paypal?

[ideegeniali]

Thanks. Yes, i do accept paypal. Contact me via my website. URL overimposed on video.

[lordchefren]

This is really interesting. I myself is considering building a four axis wood router. Axis beeing x, y, z and rotational.

What would the cost for an 4 motor respectivly a 5 motor setup (nice with redundancy for the future;) be?

Postage to Sweden would add how much?

regards

//chefren

[ideegeniali]

Yes, i do accept paypal. Yes, i do ship to sweden. Yes, 3, 4, 5 and 6 axis versions are available. Contact me on my site. URL overimposed on video.

[mijnendonckx]

where do you guys geth the software for these

[ideegeniali]

Any software sending step and pulse signals on parallel port is OK. To mention my favourites per OS: mach3 (win xp/vista), kellycam4 (win95/98), turbocnc (dos, freeware), emc2 (linux, open), maccnc (mac). Specialized for foam cutting: cenece com, foamworks. To mention others: cncplayer, galaad, ...

[Ronaldoo91]

man .. k look, am building a robot arm, so i need 4 motors, an its eithr i program and contol  speed of the motor or gt a stepping motor and i dont how to contro the spee d of a motor and! dont know how to us a tepping motor

[ideegeniali]

Great idea, ronaldo! A compact board can save you lot of the work. You have to send pulse and step signals to the robot arm, either with a PC or a microcontroller. Above mentioned sofwtare can help. Mach3 has an internal scripting language (Vbscript) and customizable GUI (with buttons wich launch script commands) to help you drive robot arm in minutes and develop complete control software in hours instead of days or weeks.

[Ronaldoo91]

k so am planing to use RCX but does it know the Motor or i have to install or do anything.?

[ideegeniali]

What's RCX?

[ClaudioArrau]

The RCX that I know is the from LEGO mindstorms. Google for it.

[ClaudioArrau]

The RCX (hope you mean the LEGO RCX) uses servo-motors. These in the video are stepper-motors.

[Ronaldoo91]

I know -.- both stepping and servo motor can work with my robot arm

[Ronaldoo91]

its a micro controller but in lego stuff

[ideegeniali]

I don't know RCX. If it outputs 0V-5V signals, wich is the most likely case, if it's powered at 5V or 6V, it can control CNC611 or cobra board. You need 2 signals per motor. One signal for direction (0=CW, 1=CCW). Anoter signal for step (on transition 0->1, board does one step). If it's powered at 3V, maybe it outputs 0V-2,7V, and you need a level shifter to control 0V-5V input level apparatus like cnc611 or cobra.

[fireball79058350]

Are they stepper motors?

[ideegeniali]

Yes, they're nema23 stepper motors. They're driven unipolar, two phases on by the board.

[hoarp001]

Do you sell the three motors with the interface? How much?

[ideegeniali]

Yes, I do. Just visit ideegeniali it. At 99 euros, including 3 stepper motors, it's the cheapest kit on the market since 2005 as far as I know.

[abcdee3d]

I'm from the US&if tsport is also,then perhaps it's the way he asked his question that should be taken to task.But the fact a lot of us here are woefully lacking in other languages has as much to do with past world practices & realities as it does anything else.A disturbing youtube trend is American-bashing.While the question by caguitar considered rhetorical may seem innocuous it's fraught with stereotype& prejudice&was unnecessary.tsport made a big blunder,why compound it?We're human too.

[ideegeniali]

What I like of US citizens on forums most (wich lacks Italian almost completely), is a sum-up post like this. Italians tend to follow flames, and write in a disorganized manner, while US usually take their time to compound a post worth a lot, dense with content, like this. I admire them, for lots of qualities, as already told. Let me add this quality as well. Thanks abcd 3D for your comment.

[harpo10]

Thats for sure! I want to navigate foreign sites all the time and Bable fish is useless.

If you send an email with it, you look like a moron.

[p8ntbal4me]

Your english converter on your web page doesnt work. Im interested in the work you did,.. looking to purchase something like this,.. but I cant read Italian,.. sorry.

[ideegeniali]

I'm sending you links to the translated contents via email. Total rewrite of site in multilingual fashion is in progress. Please drop me an email: sancono freehtml it

[tunskyzabitsky]

Hello,

Oke this looks nice ,but that website isnt really handy!!!!!

another good idea down the ,,,,???

[MERCADOMIKE]

... argentines also...!

[justlivemyway2]

this is kool!!

u must be a Mechatronics engineer

how much would this cost?

[ideegeniali]

Just look on site.

I'm just an electronic engineering student, but I built - among other things - some mechatronics as well :-)

[ideegeniali]

Thanks

[smeahzidente]

The website is not in english :-S

[ideegeniali]

Not yet the whole of it ;-)

But the page describing this kit has been translated to English (other pages will be soon)

[tsport100]

That translation isn't worth much!!

[ideegeniali]

What else would you like me to translate? Full-user's manual of cnc611 is available in: italian, english, french, spanish.

[tsport100]

Provide a link then, how can anyone navigate a site in another language????"

[ideegeniali]

There's plenty of ways of doing it. I always do on English, German, French, Spanish, and seldom Russian, Japanese sites. And that's not a problem at all to me, and to lots of visitors from all around the world, who came to my site on a regular basis. I'm Italian, they're Spanish, French, German, Greece, Brazillian, Turkish, Japanese... Where are you from?

[caguitar99999]

probably the USA - can't you tell?

[ideegeniali]

It's obvious, indeed :-)

I know some real expert persons at electronics in USA. I admire them. But most USA citizens get lost in foreign language sites. That's a disadvantage for them, I thinks. If I didn't navigate foreign language sites every day, I would know far less things than I know now.
