more enhancements
07/27/2024 at 04:11 • 0 comments- Added LM358 and problem resolved.
- Ploting XYZ positions.
- Axis velocity estimations.
- Allowing to change spark ON time .
- Start connection to printer through NodeJS serialport and showing printer messages.
- Changed 100uF capacitor by 660uF.

Dual supply OPAMP voltage follower without negative source
07/24/2024 at 21:01 • 0 commentsI have problems to get real values at lowest voltages on ADC pin because I am using an OPAMP for symetric source (UA741) and I'm using ground for the negative DC PIN.
I can resolve this by two methods:
1.- Waiting for LM358 I buy recently which handle single supplies.
2.- Adding voltage biasing and correct received values though software but I loss usable resolution.

New EDM features
07/23/2024 at 20:45 • 0 commentsNew features added:
- Three grid helper added in threeJS view.
- Changed axis colors in threeJS view to fit according to printer.
- Show electrode option in threeJS view and change diameter on it.
- Moving electrode forward based in estimations and do stop and back based in realtime.
- Allowing Invert print direction (print file mode)
- Allowing down electrode without change XYZ (to feed worn out electrode in print file mode)
- Reset XYZ button.
- Showing voltage values. (Added OPAMP in schematic for ADC pin)
- Relay to avoid positive electrode has dangerous voltage when IGBT is in off mode.
- Led connected to relay to dischage capacitor when IGBT is in off mode and to advise the electrode has voltage.
Next::
- Allow import file from a Blender scene with a line path.

Voltage multiplier using 555+mosfets for EDM
07/20/2024 at 18:56 • 0 commentsNow I use 555 with Mosfets to avoid the current 555 limitation.
Also I printed a support for one ER32 chuck and I have ready implemented an algorithm to move electrode according to .ngc files generated with inkscape GCODE tools and I can see the imported file in a ThreeJS canvas.
