This one looks to me like it can be shipped to Turkey, doesn’t it?
I’m glad the problem has been fixed!
I will modify the documentation to make it clear how to make that connection and avoid more confusion in the future 😉
Oh, my bad, my mistake. I forgot the most common problem in these cases. As you can see in the wiring diagram, the servomotor signal pin has to be connected to pin 7 of the Arduino (it is marked in another color).
When I designed the board, I made the mistake of thinking that pin 41 of the Arduino Mega could be used as PWM and it is not, so the solution is to unsolder from the Control PCB the pin that would be connected to pin 41 of the Arduino and instead solder a jumper wire to connect it to pin 7 of the Arduino.
I hope this solves the problem!
Ok, it’s the same one I use. I assume you have already tried connecting the wires by turning the connector 180 degrees.
Check, just in case, that the motor connector pins correspond to SIG, VCC, GND in that order. By the way, check also the state of the connector pins, to discard that it could be due to a bad contact.
Is the servo motor powered? There is 5V between the center pin of the PT1 pin set and the one closest to the edge of the board?
What Gcode are you using? These are the ones that I use to check the functionality:
M3 S900– Open gripper
M3 S0– Close gripperHi Kumarrr,
You are trying to attach an image located in a private Google Drive folder, so we can’t see it!
You can use an image upload free service (like this one) and then attach the image againHi Sebas! At my LinkedIn profile you can get as much info as you need about me!
Thanks for the mention 🙂Hola Sebas! En mi perfil de LinkedIn puede encontrar toda la información que necesitas sobre mí!
Gracias por la mención 🙂Hello!
First of all, welcome to Thor family! 🙂
I will be happy to help you. Please ask your questions here, so in the future anyone who has a similar problem will find it helpful.
Hello Emilio,
You can’t imagine how happy I am to know that Thor has been built in one more educational center! 🙂 I hope it has served and can serve in the future to learn and the world of robotics, electronics and 3D printing.
Hope to see your robot in motion and to know what you are going to use it for!
Hello Emilio!
Great job, you have built an awesome Thor, congratulations! Keep us posted on your progress, we want to see how it moves!
Your robot has been registered in the Worldwide Section as the number #27! Welcome to Thor family 🙂
Hi kboyd!
Yeah, you can see more detailed in this post on Hackaday 😉
Hi Irem!
You are right, I completely forgot about the servo, thanks for noticing!
The servomotor I used in the gripper was the model MG995, like this one.
Only 1 is needed 😉Hope it helps!
Hi Claudio & Davide!
Welcome to the Thor community:)
Your Thor is really amazing! I’m impressed that you say you had no previous experience in 3D printing, very good job!I’m happy to announce that, as you were saying, your Thor is the 26th in the world and the first in Italy, congratulations!
It is already registered in the Worldwide section.Best regards!
