Arduino UNO CNC Z AXIS PROBE With GRBL Comand G38.2 on Universal G Code Sender (UGS) Easy Setup

Instaling z probe on my homemade arduino uno based CNC. Its very simple, just connect probe wires to arduino uno ground (GND) and A5 pins. Attach probe clamp to bit and put probe underneath . Check if there is clean surface and write comand in UGS(Universal G-code Sender) g38.2 Z-10 F1 .When probe touch and got alarm set the height of the z axis according to the thickness of your probe , my probe thickness was 19.2mm so i set G92 Z19.2. and thats all.

when i was searching for information on how to install a probe for arduino uno, i couldn't find any easy to understand tutorials. hope this will help someone :)

I subscribed because you put all the needed info in the description text. BAM. I got what I need. Thanks.

[@craftzars]

glad I helped someone 🙂

[@mohammedaltamimi9355]

Thank you!! I was looking for this thing for months!!

[@craftzars]

Thats why i made this short video, i was searching simple explanation and cant find any.

[@mattivirta]

how can do same whit linuxcnc, need add first display probe button, then were folder add G-code and how can make other working sure too.

[@craftzars]

Unfortunately, I haven't had time to try linuxcnc yet, but I'd like to someday

[@mattivirta]

@@craftzars sad, linuxcnc have most popular used cnc machine software, hobby and pro level used only linuxcnc most. arduino/GRBL have small hobby users group only.

prefect thank you 😉

Penyebab sumbu z bergerak sendiri apanya yang rusak. Saya pakai arduino uno, dan tb 6560. Mohon pencerahan. Terima kasih

Hello, very useful video. What I want to ask you is how can I decrease the return to Zero button's descent rate to the zero position. Trying to land too fast so sometimes he skips teeth

[@craftzars]

F1 i think is slowest search speed. You need to watch your grbl settings. Also you can try F0.5 maybe 1 is not smallest.

[@craftzars]

$25= is homing seek speed, you can try to edit

[@beykana]

@@craftzars Thank you for your answer. I solved the problem. I set $112 to 100.

[@Artnovetor]

Muito bom

[@THIAGO_ELETRICISTA]

how and where can I record a macro to zero the probe and then go up 5 millimeters? my probe is 19 mm high

[@craftzars]

Depends on what program you use, i can help with candle, universal gcode sender or bcnc

[@hypertool35]

can it be used for X and Y?

[@craftzars]

for x and y i use home limit swithces

[@meller713]

Hi, tried to install same way same probe on same adruino. mill goes down till it touches platform and stops. Writes PRB:.., but do not write "ok". after that it doesn't take any command and after some time writes: "ALARM: Probe fail". What reason can there be for that ?. I need to hard reset it or push "close/reset" like 20 times or so.

[@craftzars]

i don't remember what error i had but it mysteriously disappeared changing probes wires in places.

[@gunawansalma5810]

Any video for autoleveling of ugs?

[@craftzars]

You can write same comands in ugs console

[@gunawansalma5810]

Similar pin for arduino uno atmega328?

[@craftzars]

@@gunawansalma5810 pinout looks same as uno

[@kristjanilves8344]

Is it the same pin with arduino mega 2560?

[@craftzars]

Nop mega is bigger board with more pins. Fast search in google says its maybe pins A15 and GND.
