Dale,

If your stepper driver is set to 1,600 steps per rev and you have a 16mm pitch leadscrew then the pulses per mm is simply 1,600/16 = 100 pulses/mm.

Your resolution would be 0.01mm.

16mm is a heck of a pitch for a 16 diameter ball screw - they're normally 5 or 10 mm pitch. At 16mm pitch you'll need powerful steppers to drive the table and also to resist cutting forces.

Phil.

Hi Dale,

I haven't got a DDCSV controller - I use Mach3.

I'm sure someone out there will know.

I actually came from grbl too and later upgraded to the DDCSV1.1. However, I have in the meantime switched back to grbl and a mini Windows 8.1 PC. I found a touchscreen that matched the hole I cut into the front panel and then designed a 3D printed holder for the display. It's working quite well so far.

The reason, I went back is that my original DDCSV1.1 broke down during bootloader development and I had to order a new one from China. Two lost shipments later, I got refunded and many months had passed. Since I had to get my CNC up and running again, I settled for a better grbl based controller along the setup described above.

Best regards,
Benedikt
