Alright, so I got mine just yesterday and set up the scara and am experiencing the same issues. By adjusting the pen such that it just BARELY touched the paper, I got smoother results, but still not as nice as I would like. The whole arm itself shakes as it moves. I did a calibration test by drawing a circle, and it did not close it. If I had to guess it would be because of the angle of the pen. When pushing it is angled back, and when pulling it is angled forward. So it may not be in the same relative location to the arm even though the arm is in the right spot. (Just a theory)
@smulork
Unpower the scara, then in software press the “Home” button. Now align the real arm to the virtual one in software. (Straight to the left). Finally power back up the device. Both with now be “Calibrated” to each other.
From here you can click once anywhere inside the drawable area, this will cause the arm to move and place the PEN wherever you clicked. (I was trying to do this click/drag thing early on… and that doesn’t work) If the pen still does not go to the same place, try switching motor1 and motor2 on the Orion… I had them backwards at first.
@Vexatus
I thought about adding a caster as well… one of the faults with this design is that the straighter the arm is, the greater the moment. This means that the pen is actually closer to the paper when the arm is straight rather than when it heavily bent. The increase of pressure on the pen when drawing causes inconsistencies. Something like a caster would alleviate that and most likely help with the accuracy, but I don’t know if it would help with the shakyness.
