Sienci Mill One V3

thingiverse

The Mill One is an open-source machine crafted by Sienci Labs that brings your creative visions to life by expertly carving 3D objects from a variety of materials such as wood, metal, plastic, foam, and PCB boards. This is the third iteration of our mill, and detailed instructions on the assembly process along with all necessary components can be found at https://sienci.com/mill-one-resources/. Updates for V3 include: - A new 2-part Y-axis bed design - A new XZ gantry design - Additional mounting holes on the Z axis for the Router Mount - Shorter Z-axis leadscrew resulting in increased clearance under the router - New clip-on electronics holder less prone to falling off - Improved ACME Nut Mount design - An update from GRBL v1.1e to v1.1g To learn more about these upgrades, check out our blog post at https://sienci.com/2018/07/17/sienci-mill-one-v3-updates/. The Mill One was designed as an open-source product for the public domain by Sienci Labs. This move aims to contribute towards making online resources available for creating and sharing hardware, software, and electronics designs related to rapid prototyping technologies. As an open-source product, the Mill One itself already contains existing open-source products, thus contributing further in the realm of hardware, software, and electronics. The Mill One utilizes the following open-source projects: -> GRBL firmware GRBL is open-source software that runs on an Arduino Uno, taking G-Code commands via Serial and transforming them into motor signals. Find it at https://github.com/grbl/grbl. -> Arduino Uno The Arduino Uno is a micro-controller board based on the ATmega328. It has 14 digital input/output pins (six of which can be used as PWM outputs), six analog inputs, a 16 MHz ceramic resonator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. Everything needed to support the micro-controller is included; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with an AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. Learn more at http://www.arduino.org/products/boards/arduino-uno. -> Arduino IDE The open-source Arduino Software (IDE) makes writing code and uploading it to the board easy. It runs on Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux. The environment is written in Java and based on Processing and other open-source software.

It contains 4 driver sockets, enabling the use of compatible Pololu A4988 driver modules (see HCMODU0068 on our website), providing the ability to drive 3 stepper motor axes (X,Y,& Z) plus an optional 4th auxiliary motor. Additional connectors provide easy connection of end-stop sensors and control buttons.

It operates from 8 V to 35 V and can deliver up to approximately 1 A per phase without a heat sink or forced air flow (it is rated for 2 A per coil with sufficient additional cooling).
