Hey Guys,

I hope i´m at the right "adress" here for my topic.
Since weeks i can not solve my problem with G76 threading.

The problem is: Every cut, is a bit more behind or in front of the cut he did before. But all cuts are parallel. Here´s a pic:


So there has to be a problem to start every cut at the same point.
I tried a lot the last weeks and i´m 99% sure, it´s a (user-)software problem.

I use china components with a simple DB25-1205 breakout board.
My spindle encoder is a photocell at the gear which is directly at the spindle. He has a 0V/5V clear "digital" signal.
I use a 60° thread cuter.

Here´s a example of my code:

You have any idea where´s my problem?

I hope you understand everything I write. If you need more information, please write what you need.
I´m glade about every help :)

Best regards

You can only use encoder A for index if you have 1 pulse per turn
(you seem to have 62)

This means every threading pass you could start randomly at any of the 62 shaft
positions.

I do think its arguable that the encoder component should have the option of generating a simulated
index signal by dividing the count. This would not work quite as well as a real index signal
( The index position would be forgotten when LinuxCNC was shut down )
but would allow threading with a single detector having multiple counts per turn

Oh, okay. How do i have to change it?

net spindle-phase-a encoder.0.phase-Z ?

You would need to add a 1 pulse per rev detector and wire it to phase-Z

You could retain the 62 PPR A signal if you have enough parallel port inputs available
if not you would wire the 1 PPR signal to A and Z as you have now

Okay, so I need a 1PPR at Z, so it would work. If 62 PPR would stay at A, what would it do?
Is there any option to use my 62 PPR without 1 PPR and it still stays 62 PPR? Because 1 PPR is pretty inaccurate?
I´ve got the feeling, i don´t understand something basicaly how it works.

There are at least three main options here:

1. One wire 1PPR threading: simple but poor tracking if the spindle speed varies
2. Two wire ( A and Z ) multiple PPR threading: better tracking if spindle speed varies
3. Three wire ( A,B,Z ) multiple PPR threading, good tracking and reversable ( for tapping etc )

Note for the 1 PPR option, you must use the encoders "position-interpolated" rather than "position"
pin so that the Z axis moves smoothly rather than stepping every spindle count

Okay, so, if i understand right:
I add a 1 PPR (for indication?) to phase Z, the 62 PPR stays A and so i get the second option you listet? The tracking will be better then with only 1 PPR.?

Yes, the tracking will be better because the spindle position is updated 62 times per revolution
rather than just once.

With 1 PPR you basically have to guess the spindle position by using the velocity calculated from the
previous revolution and the time from the last index ( That's what position-interpolated is )

Using position-interpolated may still be helpful even at 62 PPR, especially at low speeds
( so you avoid noticeable steps in the z motion )

Okay, now i got it. I will try to improvise a 1 PPR encoder and test it.

Very much thanks at this point!!!! :):)

That´s it! My improvise mounted sensor works and a thread was never that sexy before :D

Thank you!
