james do you know the settings for my 500w spindle i upgraded my 3018,thanks
Comment from : kenneth rigg

Hello James All of your videos are awesome Just a quick one I had 3018 Pro Try to cut a circle But, by Y, it was smashed And cut Oval Can you please instruct me on how can I change settings to be perfect circle brThanksbrAleksey Romanov

extended 3018 to 3040, do I need to make any changes to grbl or lightburn settings?
Comment from : John Risdall

Hi James I have a 3018 Pro from Vevor When I have to carving or use a laser, the size is halved on all measurements When I put 10 cm x 10 cm on the subject, and use a laser of the same size, only 5x5 cm is burned Do you know what the cause could be? Have tried Candle, Universal-G-Code-Sender and Laser_grbl

Awesome!
Comment from : Djordje Dimitrijevic

okay, I changed my spindle speed to 12000 I got an "ok" but it never changed when I did the $$ to see if it had changed tried this many times BTW you never did the $$ to check when you did changed the speed Are you sure it took? My speed stays at 1000 any suggestions?

i dont have $30 in the settings is dat normal?
Comment from : Greg C-L

Hi James, thank you very much for these guide videos You say in the video that you are talking about the $30 (spindle top speed rpm) parameter By default it is 1000, but 3018 Pro Vevor has 10000rpm stock spindle Should I set this parameter to 10000? Or does that default value have a multiplier of 10? Thank you in advance for your answer

Love your vids; fairly new to CNC'ing, and you've been a great help in getting goingbrbrCan I send you a lavalier mic, so you're a touch clearer in your presentation in your shop?
Comment from : Chris Hornberger

OkHow to make this setting's permanent?
Comment from : Best of Romania

I see James has a cut depth set to 11mm How do you change that setting to go deeper of less deep?
Comment from : Bill Warnica

Hello again been getting into your videos and practising with a 3018 On my controller the spindle drive is PWM You can tell a PWM drive when you bring the speed down to 10 or lower and you will hear a singing sound from the motor If you were to clamp the motor with your hand it would maintain torque With a DC control, the motor will stall at that value I would recommend that if you were to get a new controller make sure the Spindle Drive has PWM output Solving the jamming issue I lubricate the rails with chain and bar oil, while I am setting it up
Comment from : David Brown

Thanks for making this video Massive change from the stock 10mm/sec acceleration that my CNC was set to Excited to try it out in practice soon!
Comment from : Tristen Russo

Do you know if it’s possible to cancel the z homing from the UGS homing cycle? (I only want X and Y to home)
Comment from : B-rad-16

icant make perfect circle i chaned step drivers changed microsteps changed bed entirlybut still not solved please help
Comment from : Behzad Abf

Never Commented on a video before but after getting my 3018 last week and hearing about these videos several times I have spent the day watching the first few I am finding them to be extremely useful and just had to say thank you for all the time and effort you have put into helping those of us who have no idea what we are doing understand our machines and the software used You Sir have been an enormous help and I greatly appreciate everything you have done
Comment from : Randy Kilpatrick

Great video James, but how do i permanently adjust the settings using Aspire 105 with remote control panel? on 3018 pro
Comment from : chris Ashdown

Does this need to be done if you're using something like Easel
Comment from : Jay McDonald

I'm just getting in to this stuff now, but I've found your tutorials to be extremely helpful This is another great video - I'm going to do this tune-up for sure to shave some time off I suppose there are two types of "sticky spots" - one that would cause a stepper to skip while it's already moving (indicating the velocity is set too high) and the other that could cause it to "jam" when starting from a dead stop (indicating that the acceleration is set too high) Knowing which situation you have would tell you which value you need to tweak (or both if you have both problems), yes?
Comment from : SimcoeSkies

Made a 11 minute difference on my rig stock 3018
Comment from : Daniel Ride

I can see you've changed max spindle speed from 1k rpm to 20k rpm during the tuning This is exactly what I was looking for My 3018 came with spindle rpm capped at 1k rpm, even though the manual says it is 10k max Also, notice Be careful with acceleration settings At the start of cutting the bit suffers an impact, and if it is too rough it will break This is why all of the industrial cnc machines have PID control on all of the axis The faster the tool goes, the faster it needs to be stopped, the lesser the impact brGreat video, thank you!

Really instructive, dude, I'm going to bed late, but it was worthy Blessings from Saint Kitts and Nevis
Comment from : La tiza

after doing this on mine, just got it assembled i went from 4:55 to 3:23
Comment from : Bearded gaming

i have a genmitsu 3020 and it does not behave like yours its as if it has some kind of software speed limits? i can change from 100 - 500 120 and get zero change in machine behavior
Comment from : Bearded gaming

Some of these settings aren't available on mine Any ideas?
Comment from : Shane Harrison

I watch your video I learn my things Thank you much for making these videos
Comment from : Parvez Vahora

Hello, while processing the g-code file I created with UGS in CNC, the CNC axes go to the place they need to go very fast when the carving work of a point is finished and trying to go to a different point (idle acceleration), which causes tooth skipping and the coordinate is distorted I wonder if I need to adjust the grbl settings or the g-code file to reduce the speed of the axes in these transitions (idle speed)
Comment from : Beykana

Thanks James! Those setting adjustments really stepped up my 4040xe, not boring at all now, homing sucked
Comment from : 212nailbender

Excellent video
Comment from : Bob Smith

Hello James, first I would like to thank you for making these videos I have a 3018Prover running UGS When I try and increase the speed nothing happens brTried refreshing and $$ as wellbrIt's stuck on the old settingsbrAnything I could do to improve performance Had this machine for over a year and it still hasn't worked from day onebrThinking of maybe putting a new motherboard in to see if this would cure the problemsbrIm in my mid seventies and I would like to see it carve something before the big box comes callingbrCheers Bill M-) brHaddington
Comment from : Bill Martin

This was incredibly helpful - exactly what I was looking for Subscribed Thank you James!
Comment from : futureleader137

@james dean designs, do you have a link to the test files you used to set the machine up, I can’t find a link belowbrMany thanks
Comment from : Wayne Ramsden

Thank you so much These adjustments made a major improvement on the first sign we made
Comment from : j rendt

Hi James, an excellent video as always I have one problem on my machine There is no $30 and $31 in my file, (spindle speed) If I try to add them from the console it errors Is there a special way to add them My spindle speed won't change from flat out
Comment from : meithkart

just a short suggestion, mobile friendly content 😎 i'm watching on my phone and i can't read stuff 😶
Comment from : Pix-l

Fab super helpful thank you, more tuning videos and optimal tool path deflection etc etc would be interesting
Comment from : Duncan Thomson

I cannot change the spindle speed
Comment from : Mustafa

Truly appreciate these videos I am just learning and having the ability to watch/listen to you while I make these adjustments is a huge time saver!
Comment from : Dawn Cowan

Love this video but I don't have $30 so why is that
Comment from : Peter Jarvie

Can you peck drill with the 3018 pro? Can you ramp in to cuts on depth cuts?
Comment from : Stephen Lindsey

Thank you for this! Just entered the world of CNC and got a 3018 for Christmas, my first test cut (my name) was estimated at 30minutes and had me feeling very disheartened Now that I made these adjustments its down to 5min! Had no idea the settings were set so low! You sir, just gained a subscriber!!

James, I think a lot of us think that we can just unbox a CNC machine and start creating I know I got excited when my 3018 Prover arrived But I would highly recommend that everyone takes the steps that you've outlined here in tuning their settings It will make a tremendous difference in the outcome of your projects Great instructional video Also watched your Making A Spoilboard video which was great as well
Comment from : DE Jaeger Woodworking (The Traveling Woodworker)

thank you very much for this video, what is the best grbl settings for pcb printing? with cnc 3018 pro
Comment from : Mirage Bleu

Thanks
Comment from : George Vieira

Thanks for the info, although my spindle wouldn't spin any faster than 1000rpm, anything above that slowed it down, strange
Comment from : Niall Hoy

Is it possible to change my home point from the right top to the left top?
Comment from : LvA Design

Cool! Will definetly do this with my machinebrI have some concerns, thoughbr1 Will these top speeds and accelerations breached under the load, while cutting, or this is purely to move in the air betweendig-in points?br2 In the case of Y axis, did the 80 rule show to be sufficient for you? I mean, there might be quite heavy piece of wood on the table that also needs to be moved Will it manage?
Comment from : Artem

JAMES YOU ARE A F**KING HERO! It's like a new machine, such an improvement Thanks for all the top notch content!
Comment from : Fat Grub Man

Tl;dr thanks for making this video
Comment from : Wieber Craft

Brilliant, once again!!
Comment from : A Millard

James I omitted the new spoil board size; 300x360 mm
Comment from : Bill Lester

James I have installed the Sainsmart extended Y axis kit on the 3018 pro and need help in modifying the GRBL candle settings to reflect the installation, Thank you
Comment from : Bill Lester

Really helpful, can't wait to adjust my settings brWhat grbl software are you using? It looks better than the basic Candle grbl that came with my Sainsmart router
Comment from : eight mantis

Perhaps there is something built-in that is limiting the settings? I stepped the 120 and the 121 all the way to 10000 for each, and neither one has jammed yet This felt excessive based on the video, so I thought I'd check in before pushing it further and risking damage This is my first system, and I haven't done a cut with it yet, as I want to ensure it is properly calibrated before moving on to the actual cutsbrbrI'm sure higher performance is better, but this doesn't feel right Any thoughts on what the best course of action is?
Comment from : Kahlandir

Hello James! Why don't I have $30 and $32? What's the reason for this? Can I someway get these? Thank you!
Comment from : Ramadin Uday

Thank you so much! Another great tutorial I, what a difference it has made to my 3018 fully turbocharged now
Comment from : John Venn

Thanks for the great videos Is there a way to use the probe in UGS? Thanks
Comment from : Steve McNerney

dude i got mine all the way to 7500 without jamming i dare not go any higher so i just set it to 3000 and left it at that
Comment from : Brainybren

When I try running the test programs, any axis goes straight to the limit switches I have a SainSmart 3018Prover
Comment from : julie Richardt

Hi James I have had my new 3018 pro for a few weeks now and still can,t get the spindle to start Today I looked at the commands and see that $30 /$31 and $32 are all missing of my software How do I find them and put them in the software Or do I just reinstall Or is it a motherboard problem Would love some help Cheers Anthony
Comment from : Anthony Williams

I have 3018 I have had this pile of junk three weeks and can't get it to run I trying using vectric desktop any design I make I can't send to candle every file I open is empty can you tell me why or any tips I can try before I throw the thing in the bin thanks
Comment from : Paul Mcdonald

James in the 3018 Pro -Tuning GBRL settings the test file (JD Designs test filegcode) you use initially is not apparently included as a link in details below the video is it possible for you to provide please Regards Paul
Comment from : Fixer Fireblade

James, You are my big source of information about CNC and Grblbrdid you spend time on "User Commands" in Candle? (Extras buttons I think) but how to use?
Comment from : Jan Laarman

Hey james i have a 3018 like you have in the other videoI mainly use it for pcb makingthe machine is working very well to mill the pcbOnce im at the drilling part the hole never line up with the one on the designI am using eagle flatcam and candleYou have any idea what could be causing this?
Comment from : matt

James, I used this great video when I got my ProVer 3018 and it made a tremendous difference for my machine Can the same basic concepts be used on the ProVer 4030 XL? Or do you have a different video? I searched but did not find one
Comment from : Jeff Benedict

James fantastic tutorial although just a small note that when calibrating the Y axis the bed needs to have on it whatever full load work piece that will be worked on, especially when using the 30 40 upgrade kit
Comment from : tigre stud

Hi Mr Dean, On my 3018 my spindle is coming on as soon as I turn the machine on (I have a constant live 24v spindle output pin Any ideas? Have I set a setting in the software so the spindle is on all the time? The only way to turn off the spindle is by pulling the plug from the wall Cheers tutorials videos as always!
Comment from : MelonSmasher

i upgrade my spindal like you but i will not work now were do i edit the gcode M03 S1000
Comment from : james cole

<- still doesn't get why you have a brass SGI logo
Comment from : JKC40

Your $3 is set at 6 mine is zero and in easel it goes the wrong way after doing this video also the test prints your design backwards
Comment from : Ernie Gray

My 3018 only works in a very small area, when I run check mode it seems to be fine, but when I start cutting, it only works in a very small area, what kind of stupid things do I do, there is something in the setup on UGS or are there bugs in the software?
Comment from : Default Name

You sir, are a true star, saved me a lot of time I bought this as a practice for the 15m cnc i'm building and wanted to try out GRBL
