Some settings (like corexy setup,variable spindle) needs to be changed trough the config.h. You find the config file in the arduino library folder for grbl. The file has instructions and should be pretty straight forward to edit. When you have edited the config file you need to reupload ...
GRBL is an open source software or firmware which enables motion control for CNC machines. We can easily install the GRBL firmware to an Arduino and so we instantly get a low cost, high performance CNC controller. The GRBL uses G-code as input, and outputs motion control via the Arduino ....

If you have a COREXY plotter you must edit line 189 in the file “config.h” to read “#define COREXY;” as shown in photo3. Use a text editor such as Notepad++ to do this. Do NOT use a word processor. Copy the “grbl folder” to the arduino “libraries” folder and rename to...
1. To set up “home”, that is to find 0 for the Z-axis we use the command “G28 Z0” for the Anet A8 3D printer. 2. We move the laser up to 50 mm above the Z-axis. 3. Measure the range between the lens and the worktop, it is 37 mm, it means that the laser is 13...
For a 3018-PROVer, PROVerXL 4030, or any GRBL-based CNC with limit switches, "Alarm" is the correct status to see with an active connection to your CNC. The "Alarm" state is what the aformentioned CNC's default to every time you start up Candle, and is totally normal. What this ...

One huge advantage of the grblShield with the Arduino is the ability to use a regular old USB connection. Welcome to the 21stcentury. I know don’t fall out of your chairs. My harbor fright mini mill isn’t all that big. I really didn’t want the controller to be bigger than the ...
Use the following steps to run the program… If you are more of a visual learner, scroll down and click on the video below for walk through of the process. 1. Load a marker into the spindle(Keep the spindle off!)Markers work better than pens or pencils because the tip is softer and...
