In my last post on Teensy 3.1 Repstrap printer with DC motor control and Flex Timer Quadrature Encoders, I discussed controlling the X and Y axis of my Repscrap printer using DC servomotor instead of the traditional stepper motor method used in most 3D printers today.
I know this project is dragging, but… alas, I’ve finally passed the next hurdle. I’ve got Nikki V’s branch of Teacup_firmware running on my Teensy 3.1, and managing things like gcode parsing and extruder path planning. Now for the next step… I am about to merge the two pieces of code to allow me to parse gcode and control my axis positions with DC servomotors.
