I have a XY Plotter that is vibrating like crazy, and the lines are not smooth. Another problem I am having is the mDraw program doesn’t seem to work properly.
What are the x and y setting?
Speed setting?
Clockwise/Counter Clockwise setting?
I ask because the servo motors take the pen out to the upper right hand side of the plotter as if the setting are too large for the actual space. I think the unit ship with 380mm and 310mm as the settings. To get it to draw I have to make the picture tiny 27mm x 19mm and put it in the upper right hand corner of the x y rectangle. It kinda works but the lines are messy.
I have tried adjusting the torque and I can get the vibrations to stop, but the pen doesn’t move when I do that. It almost seems as though the limit switches are not working properly, but at this point I have no clue.
I want to use GCode, but I need to know the unit is working properly first.
