Shaper Pdf
Irmgard Rossie
In machining, a shaper is a type of machine tool that uses linear relative motion between the workpiece and a single-point cutting tool to machine a linear toolpath. Its cut is analogous to that of a lathe, except that it is (archetypally) linear instead of helical.
A wood shaper is a functionally different woodworking tool, typically with a powered rotating cutting head and manually fed workpiece, usually known simply as a shaper in North America and spindle moulder in the UK.
A metalworking shaper is somewhat analogous to a metalworking planer, with the cutter riding a ram that moves relative to a stationary workpiece, rather than the workpiece moving beneath the cutter. The ram is typically actuated by a mechanical crank inside the column, though hydraulically actuated shapers are increasingly used. Adding axes of motion to a shaper can yield helical tool paths, as also done in helical planing.
A single-point cutting tool is rigidly held in the tool holder, which is mounted on the ram. The work piece is rigidly held in a vise or clamped directly on the table. The table may be supported at the outer end. The ram reciprocates and the cutting tool, held in the tool holder, moves forwards and backwards over the work piece. In a standard shaper, cutting of material takes place during the forward stroke of the ram and the return stroke remains idle. The return is governed by a quick return mechanism. The depth of the cut increments by moving the workpiece, and the workpiece is fed by a pawl and ratchet mechanism.
Shapers are mainly classified as standard, draw-cut, horizontal, universal, vertical, geared, crank, hydraulic, contour and traveling head,[1] with a horizontal arrangement most common. Vertical shapers are generally fitted with a rotary table to enable curved surfaces to be machined (same idea as in helical planing). The vertical shaper is essentially the same thing as a slotter (slotting machine), although technically a distinction can be made if one defines a true vertical shaper as a machine whose slide can be moved from the vertical. A slotter is fixed in the vertical plane
The workpiece mounts on a rigid, box-shaped table in front of the machine. The height of the table can be adjusted to suit this workpiece, and the table can traverse sideways underneath the reciprocating tool, which is mounted on the ram. Table motion may be controlled manually, but is usually advanced by an automatic feed mechanism acting on the feedscrew. The ram slides back and forth above the work. At the front end of the ram is a vertical tool slide that may be adjusted to either side of the vertical plane along the stroke axis. This tool-slide holds the clapper box and tool post, from which the tool can be positioned to cut a straight, flat surface on the top of the workpiece. The tool-slide permits feeding the tool downwards to deepen a cut. This flexibility, coupled with the use of specialized cutters and toolholders, enables the operator to cut internal and external gear teeth.
The ram is adjustable for stroke and, due to the geometry of the linkage, it moves faster on the return (non-cutting) stroke than on the forward, cutting stroke. This return stroke is governed by a quick return mechanism.[citation needed]
Samuel Bentham developed a shaper between 1791 and 1793.[2] However, Roe (1916) credits James Nasmyth with the invention of the shaper in 1836.[3] Shapers were very common in industrial production from the mid-19th century through the mid-20th. In current industrial practice, shapers have been largely superseded by other machine tools (especially of the CNC type), including milling machines, grinding machines, and broaching machines. But the basic function of a shaper is still sound; tooling for them is minimal and very cheap to reproduce; and they are simple and robust in construction, making their repair and upkeep easily achievable. Thus, they are still popular in many machine shops, from jobbing shops or repair shops to tool and die shops, where only one or a few pieces are required to be produced, and the alternative methods are cost- or tooling-intensive. They also have considerable retro appeal to many hobbyist machinists, who are happy to obtain a used shaper or, in some cases, even to build a new one from scratch.
Laguna Tools has precisely engineered each of our wood shapers to efficiently mill profiles on straight or curved wood stock. With our equipment at your disposal, you can minimize waste, precisely mill wood stock, and bring your designs to life.
I am not really a big fan of the Input Shaper for functional parts, neither on my MK4 nor on my MK3.9 - the results are still better than my upgraded Ender 3 V2 though - but not as good as with the 0.2 quality settings. Maybe going back using gyroid will help a bit as suggested in an MK4 thread - but a non Inpus Shaper Profile would still be nice to have.
Err... That is most certainly correct - but not really what I wanted to achive ? InputShaping may be disabled then - but that would propably even worsen the quality as the printer still prints at high speed - but now without the compensation of InputShaper...
I've been fighting with passing the axis tests on firmware 5.1.0. The Y axis passed just fine before, but the fan didn't. So support had me upgrade to 5.1.0... now the Fan passes, but the Y fails... I think because the Y fails, it stops further tests and tuning.
Yep on my MK3.9 Printing without InputShaper is done by using default MK4 profile. An interesting note: Input shaper limits layer height, there is no 0.07, or 0.05mm ULTRADETAIL and no 0.30mm DRAFT mode.
The y shaper with the MZV recommendation is very unlikely causing any gap.
Your x axis is really looking bad and the recommended shaper is the strongest one, known to be causing high smoothing.
Never seen two such strong maxima. Maybe your heavy modifications (whatever that means) did go into the wrong direction at least WRT the vibration.
On my smaller / slower printer I use a modified GitHub - VoronDesign/Voron-Afterburner: VORON Afterburner Upgrade
Well, or what is left of it. I just use the lower part and modified the upper one to take a Orbiter v2
I liked the way GregDog (thing:4510447) designed his mount (the hotend is centered with the original position, not the center of the X plate) so you don't loose few millimeters of printing area like the others mounts that are available here. Sadly,...
Voron Afterburner/Stealthburner Gallileo Clockwork mount plate for Creality Ender 3 / CR printers with bl-touch and accelerometer (ADXL345 or similar) mount. (fits 1.5 version of official orbiter kits but you need addtional 1pc MR 148ZZ bearing)Full...
Thank you. To be honest I am not sure if Creality has made any dimensional changes to the X carriage for the various printer revisions. You would have to check for any dimensional differences. But you do have to keep in mind that my purpose was not to design a universal toolhead but instead design something very specific for my needs, using Orbiter 2 and the Dragon hot end. I listed my design objectives on the Thingiverse page. I also had no intentions to create this design for others to use but I am happy to share it in case anyone else does find it useful. This was an exercise for me in exploring Fusion 360 and creating a more complex design that required lots of thought about the function and the assembly.
On my CR-10S Pro the overall design of the printer is so limiting in terms of maximum accelerations that the actual location of the ADXL for resonance measurements is not that critical. Having said that, I would recommend not to attach anything to the duct as it is kept in place by friction only and with a heavier weight of the ADXL it may pick up some false resonances. In my case I simply attached the accelerometer temporarily to the back of the Orbiter stepper motor and that worked really well.
Yes, indeed. In my case I researched and then sourced the hardware that I wanted to use as opposed to using the many bits and pieces that I have on-hand. In particular I tested four different 3010 fans before I picked one that worked well. The others would surge (stall the blades) due to the back pressure of the duct and the Dragon heat sink and effectively produce no flow. Despite being well rated in terms of flow vs. delta P.
we are working on a fix to the problem you are seeing, in the mean time we have a simple work around: disable: preferences>design>assemblies>first component grounded to parent -utilities-export-error-fix-5-31-24/13609
I've loved this utility but the current version doesn't work correctly with the newest version for Fusion. It does not export the correct face and is unable to export certian geometries. It makes most of wha I use Fusion for useless. Is there a fi for this in the works?
Would be nice if the 'shaper utilities' had more functionality than just for the Origin.
For example, i have the Shaper Trace; these utilities would be great if they let me import my traces / svg's from shapertools files directly into Fusion360.
Running Sonoma 14.4.1 on a M3 Mac with 64GB of ram. No other apps running other than Fusion. Downloaded Shaper Origin today. It runs pretty quickly up to Compute Finished and then I get the spinning globe and Fusion is shown as Not Responding in the Activity Manager. I've let it run for some time with no change. I have to force quit fusion. I would really like to use this as the alternative is $500. Thanks for any suggestion! Rating a 5 in the hope that this will work :)
I had the same installation problems as Ken Kreshtool on May 07, 2020. His advice saved me a lot of time because the installation appeared to be successful, but I still didn't see anything. That way, within a few minutes I had the SharperUtilities.bundle in the right place and it was running like clockwork. I give the tool 5 stars, I would rather not rate the installation. The configuration was this:
Are you able to communicate some specifics of what you are seeing? Please include the text you see in any error displayed or a description of what steps produce the issueWe have tested it successfully on all hardware and software we have available.What os ( mac / win ) and version?can you confirm you have uninstalled all old copies of Shaper Utilities ( look for them in the fusion utilities / addons menu )can you confirm you were able to download and install 1.7.0? if not, what errors did you see?do you see an error mentioning shaper utilities when starting fusion?do you see shaper utilities 1.7.0 listed as installed an running in the utilities / addon menu?can you confirm the Shaper Utilities icon is present in the ui in the design/utilities tab at the top of the screen?does the shaper utilities panel display when clicking the button? if not are there errors?are you able to export in regular single solid body mode? are you able to export in all modes?
