=Next Steps=
Phase 1: Stepper Motors
#Do full wiring diagram for Arduino with RAMPS with TB880 stepper drivers
#Assume 4 motors driving each axis at 1A each and 24V - are the stepper motors in D3D BOM good for 24V?
#Use USB power for Arduino
#Do not plug in the power to RAMPS - can it be powered only by the USB power via Arduino?
#Connect the TB880 with up to 4 stepper drivers each
#Use 24v power supply for stepper motors - can the usual steppers handle 24V?
Phase 2: Resistive or other Loads via External Relay
#Use AC heater pad so the bed heater is not relying on a DC power supply. This can be done with an external relay activated by the normal RAMPS heat bed output - [https://www.amazon.com/SainSmart-101-70-100-2-Channel-Relay-Module/dp/B0057OC6D8/ref=pd_sbs_147_2?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0057OC6D8&pd_rd_r=YY76X3DHYA8XPYZC54TH&pd_rd_w=N5swh&pd_rd_wg=xSduu&psc=1&refRID=YY76X3DHYA8XPYZC54TH]
#Heater pad - [http://www.ebay.com/itm/Watlow-100260503-120V-1000W-26x10-Flexible-Silicone-Rubber-Heater-Pad-1021C-14-/152515099729?hash=item23829bbc51:g:NbIAAOSwvihY9ZjJ] - but any load can be used for testing the relay heat power, such as a light bulb or electric heater.
=Prototype Cost=
Phase 1:
*RAMPS - $5.82 [https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wholesale-1PC-RAMPS-1-4-3D-printer-control-panel-printer-Control-Reprap-MendelPrusa/32643621917.html?spm=2114.01010208.3.1.yP5Nya&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_1_10065_10130_10068_10136_10137_10138_10060_10062_10141_10056_10055_10054_10059_10099_129_10103_10102_10096_10148_10147_10052_10053_10050_10107_10142_10051_10143_10084_10083_10119_10080_10082_10081_10110_10111_10112_10113_10114_10078_10079_10073_10070_10123_10120_10124-10120,searchweb201603_1,afswitch_1_afChannel,ppcSwitch_5,single_sort_0_default&btsid=2c1fc3c7-1c30-4650-a83c-4fb158ceba62&algo_expid=7121a5a4-6be3-4c1e-a463-58ea1dc80795-0&algo_pvid=7121a5a4-6be3-4c1e-a463-58ea1dc80795]
*Arduino - $12 - Not CH340 bootloader [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01H4ZLZLQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]
*TB660 - $10 [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HLRT0VE/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A1MRES3O0ASH36]
*Stepper motors - $9 each for a pack of 5 [http://www.ebay.com/itm/5-x-Stepper-motor-NEMA-17-76-oz-in-CNC-MILL-ROBOT-REPRAP-MAKERBOT-GT2-2mm-P4V-/111005363513?hash=item19d86f6d39:g:7nkAAOSwu1VW6vwm]
Phase 2:
*Relay - $8
*Heater pad - $20 for 1000W, or DIY via nichrome wire.
=Test=
*Use Lulzbot Cura
*Use RAMPS + external TB660
*Connect 4 motors to one TB660
*Run them with cura
*That's it - if we can run 4 steppers with Cura, RAMPS, and 1 TB660 - we can then drive a CNC Torch Table.
