SA-CNC AGENDA VIR DONDERDAG 28 NOV 2019 – 19:00

• Marius Liebenberg gee ‘n oorsig van sy ervaring met sagteware, hoe om bis lêers vir Mesakaarte met ‘n FPGA prosesseerders, te skep.
• Henk du Preez vertel hoe om makros vir LinuxCNC te skryf, wat Gkode makliker genereer.
• Ruben vd Merwe wys hoe Gmoccapy geïmplementeer word om geoutomatieseerde gereedskap lengtebepaling te doen.  Ons kyk ook hoe dit in Axis toegepas word.
• Ons bespreek die vordering met die klub-projekte: Deckel klamp, Mesofreesmasjien, en EDM draadsnyer.  As die tyd dit toelaat begin ons ‘n bespreking oor ‘n nuwe projek: ‘n LCNC beheerder gebasseer op ‘n 10.4 duim raakskerm, ‘n mini-PC en ‘n Mesa 7i76E.
• Vir die jaareinde byeenkoms kan ons hopelik ‘n werkwinkel besoek, en ‘n braai na die tyd reël.  Enige vrywilligers?

 SA-CNC AGENDA FOR THURSDAY 28 NOV 2019 – 19:00

• Marius Liebenberg talks to his experience with the tools to generate the “bit files” for the Mesa cards that have FPGA processors.
• Henk du Preez provides some background on writing Macros for LinuxCNC that makes generating Gcode easier.
• Ruben vd Merwe will give us more details of how Gmoccapy implements automatic tool length probing.  I will show how it can be done in Axis.
• We will discuss progress on the club projects: the Deckel vice, the Meso mill and the EDM Wire Cutter.  If time permits we will start a discussion on a new project: a LCNC controller based on a 10.4 inch touch screen, a mini-PC and a Mesa 7i76E.
• We discuss a year-end gathering – hopefully visiting a workshop and having a braai afterwards.  Any volunteers?
