CNCRT57: All About Limits

CNCRT 57: All About Limits
CNC Router Tips Podcast Episode 57


It's all about limits. No really limits are what keeps chaos at bay
on our CNC Router tables. In this episode of CNC Router Tips
Podcast Bill Griggs answers a listener's question about limit
switches and Home switches.

Shawn Jones asked, "When building a slaved Y axis machine, what is
the convention for using limit/home switches? Are they need on both
rails or on a single rail?"

In Episode 57 we explain how to hook up limit switches, homing
switches for slaved axis machines and also why you might want a
switch on each rail. We also examine reasons why you would
not.

We also discuss the types of wire needed, where you can buy limit
switches and also how many you would need.

We also discuss some of the upgrades I have planned for my CNC
Router Table.
