BraunsBot 1.0: A Homemade XY Plotter
Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 05. 2016
- Since the day I got my first 3D printer, I always wanted to build such a machine by myself. As my first step I constructed the BraunsBot 1.0.
Working area: 380x380mm
Average speed: 70mm/s
Software:
Inkscape 0.91 with the plugin GCodeTools V1.7 to generate the GCode
Universal-GCode-Sender V1.0.9 to send the GCode to the plotter
GRBL 0.9 as plotter firmware
All white parts are 3D printed with an Ultimaker Original +.
Special thanks go to igus GmbH for supporting me with their great linear guides and bearings. - Věda a technologie
Amazing👑👑 👏👏👏
Please, make a full tutorial to how build one !!
I hugely loved it.
Brilliant
Amazing job. Nicely done.
Thanks!
This is a great plotter!
Very nicely done!! That big stepper motor for the z axis is probably overkill but that's not really a problem.
Amazing work!
its amazing!!
You're using quite expensive linear guides. Looking back at this build, I think this is maybe what inspired me to build my own pen plotter back in the days.. It has evolved to the 'LotusXY' pen plotter now. If you look on instagram you can see the machine working. I'm currently building a second pen plotter. Very nice to see your attempt again. My approach was completely different though, but I think we both use gcode.
Great job !! I would like to see the details and construction of the cnc!!
good Job robot 👍
Nice
I'd like to see a more indepth video in how you made this plotter. Is there any documentation available for the machine? I am currently in the process of building a CoreXY plotter that can also carry a laser but there is a lot going wrong with this machine and I'd love to see what you did. Also, how did you get IGUS to sponsor you?
It's amazing. Which stepper motors did you use bro?
There is a simple lightweight solution for the open wiring....
1/4" split loom... used in Automotive wiring harnesses.
Really cool stuff! What mechanism did you use for the center pencil to go up and down? I'm looking to do something similar but more like an SMD placing machine.
I used a gear on the stepper motor with a rack on the pen. However for a SMD placing machine you rather want to use a vacuum pen to pick up the parts.
Well done! Great painting area, really!
BTW, I'm working with the same 'hobby' project now (currently x,y are ready). What software do you using with your mechanics? Can you provide aarduino sketch?
Thanks! I used grbl as firmware, therefore there is no arduino sketch involved.
Great work! Looks professional. The hardware for driving the motors is a Arduino with a CNC Hat? Which 3D Printer did you use to print the mechanic-components ?
Yes, it ist driven by an Arduino with a Shield. I used the Ultimaker Original + for all 3D printed parts.
use a vinyl cutter blade and see how well it cuts vinyl i would be very interested to know
opensource? link to bom and guide? i need a plotter bigger then this but this would simplify my build using those guides
hi friend it amazing this is very nice you are genius .can tell me where you get all the things .and how you build plotter.
Lindo trabalho, parabéns.
Hi ! I have to say I am absolutely impressed by what you have done ! It is amazing :) I am currently at the beginning of my last year in High School in France and we have to build a project in group. So I thought I would do an XY Plotter. I decided to look on CZcams what people has done yet and I saw your video. When I saw something as perfect as your machine is, I thought I could ask you some questions about it. I am not asking you to build my project, just to give me some advices. Normally, the programming part is not a problem, as I am quite good at it, but just a question. When you draw the ship, is it from a color picture that is converted thanks to a program, or is it already a pure black and white picture ? But this is not where the problem is, here's the thing, there are so many possibilities to build this thing that I don't know what to choose, like wich motors should I get to have a nice speed and a decant torque. I also saw that you are using an Arduino to control it, just like I would like to do it ! But what motor shield do you use ? Have you built one ? Last question for today, how do you give the speed of the motors to the rails ? I was thinking, I could do it with a pulley and a rope. Is that what you have done ? I can't really see on your video and I would really like to know ! Anyway, I don't know if you will answer, but I would love to have more details about BraunsBot. I am not trying to copy it, just to build a similar device. Of course, you'll be mentioned in the project. Maybe speaking in the comment section is not the best idea, could I get your e-mail, or something like this to talk to you in private.
I hope you'll read this and you'll be able to help us in our project !
Sorry for my bad english... I am french, that's why.

Hello there! Please message me your e-mail so I can help you ;).
+Brauns CNC Thanks a lot ! It is minijosselin22@gmail.com
How did you create the gcode for the flower pattern...please help....thank you
Dear Brauns. You use 3 stepper motor. So. Can i use servo motor with a pen?
is it possible to put hot wire rod replacing the pen to cut foamboard?
Very Nice! I like this design. Is it on Thingiverse?
Thanks for your interest! Sadly the files are not available online. The design was not intended to get replicated by others easily and could be quite confusing at some points ;).
nice work where did i get the cnc drawing file
I wish they had multicolor pen for the xy plotters

So two months ago I was asking you how to do this.
I created my own CNC. I was wondering what grbl settings were you running and what is the font you were using in the beginning of the video.
Congratulations on your own CNC! Most of the GRBL settings are defined by your own machine and therefore can not be copied from another one. You have to find the values that work for you.
I think I used the software F-Engrave for the text in the beginning, but I do not know the exact font name.
The value of the seek rate is not that important, as it is mostly only used once in the beginning of every job. Just take a value that works ;).
For the perfect feed rate you want to find the highest speed at which the plotter does not make any mistakes (pen is scraping instead of drawing, motors lose steps...). This mainly depends on the mechanics of the CNC, so you have to experiment to find your ideal value.
Good luck ;)
what about the acceleration?
Well, acceleration also depends heavily on the mechanics and particularly the weight of the moving axis. With a very light setup you could go with high accelerations (>3000mm/s).
However a acceleration of 500-1000mm/s² should work fine for your type of plotter, especially when you do not have any crazy high feed rates,
thanks mate :)
Dear Brauns. Can you tell me please Which driver step motor did you use? Drv8825 or tb6600 or a4988? Thank you so much
I used the DRV8825.
Good evening everyone can tell me which progama to use to move the arms of the prototype there along with the pen
I think it's mentioned in the video description.
Nice, you will nead vacum table for paper.
how did you produce the gcode?
Amazing build! It looks very nice! Can you tell the size of the "Bosch profiles"? 40x40?
Thank you :). They are actually 30x30mm.
Hi I liked your design very much.. I wanted to ask one question.. which is the best y axis design using belt drive
There are several possible designs for both, x- and y-axis. All have their positive and negative sides. Therefore I sadly can not tell you how the best design looks like.
Is there Torque problem when we connect belt only on one side?
Depends on the size of the machine. If it is really tiny it should work, but I do not recommend it as the carriages will most likely jam.
Thank you very much sir
good job! can you send me the list of materiales and some schematics to build it. thanks padelillo@gmail.com
Could you pass me the cnc programming this picture (Flower 3D) by email?
i also want to make this plotter
which components are require can u tell me????
Could you please tell me what's the name of the pieces that you use as linear guides? ty
They look like carbon fiber rods
Hallo. Frohes neues Jahr. Warum hat man bei dir keine Übersetzung auf Deutsch. Grus Andy aus Belgien.
I need one
make video on making of plotter
I´ve built one similar CNC for bechmarking purposes. Could u plis link the software and firmware u are currently using? would be very helpful, ty very much.
I used Inkscape to create the images and G-Code and the "Universal GCode Sender" to send it to the arduino board which runs GRBL as firmware.
Ty very much i appreciate it
My cnc pen plotter is going on the wrong side. When it draws the picture, it is not in this direction, but it is moving to the left side. how to fix it? Is it a software problem?
I need one! Size A2, can you do that for me or help me to built one? Please
how to make please give me a full video for this
Hello,
How can we order a unit?
Do you sell your pen plotters ? Any link to buy it ?
Hallo! Can I ask for a download link for:
1) The GRBL library version you use (Mine seems to work but only "sometimes")
2) The Universal Gcode Sender you use (mine blocks often)
3) The Inkscape version you use (Mine generates G-codes that does not run)
4) The Gcode plugin for Inkscape you use to translate your drownings to Gcode (As I said mine produces useless codes)
I've beel able to drow suxcessfully a circle with the "sample gcode" downloaded form Wikipedia. So my electronic is ok, my stepper motors are ok, maybe the GRBL sketch also, but the gcode sender NOT (often bloks also with the wikipedia simple code but not always! sometimes works!) and My Inkscape version with my "choosed" plugin doesn't work at all with CNC shield and GRBL. (the produced g-codes never runs)
I'm starting to hate those 1000 versions of each software component of the chain. Could you save me sharing your "magic combination" ? Thank you Bro! :-)
Than, Nice work your plotter is awesome!
I just updated the description with all the software versions I used.
Please check that you have the latest version of Java installed, this might be the reason for your problems with the UniversalGCodeSender.
I hope that this will help you to let your CNC work properly, please let me know ;).
Brauns CNC I will try soon. Maybe in the evening. Right now I'm at work... Thank you!!!
hola, que buen trabajo !!! podrías compartir el proyecto (códigos) que utilizaste para lograr el correcto funcionamiento de tu CNC.
I need firmwear for this machine and controller, you can share!!!
What if xy plotter and tracing light box merge
how much for your robot ?,my friend
How to make this?
cuanto por el robot?
Pls give stomp filesfor parts
Where can I buy it?
Nowhere, sadly :(.
Ingrid Amaya, puedes construirla solo necesitas unos cuantos motores PAP, un sistema de transmisión para los dos ejes, controladores para los motores y el sotfware
i want rongoli multi colour spares machine
I need your file
Donde lo compro . Urgente
Hi , good DIY
