Pin Configuration

  • Openbuilds Smooth Idler Bearing Pulley H Groove Wheel Documentation
  • Pinout Description
  • The Openbuilds Smooth Idler Bearing Pulley H Groove Wheel is a critical component in IoT-based automation systems, CNC machines, and 3D printers. It features a set of pins that enable connection to other components, motors, and control systems. This section provides a detailed description of each pin, their functions, and how to connect them.
  • Pin Structure:
  • The Openbuilds Smooth Idler Bearing Pulley H Groove Wheel has a total of 5 pins, arranged in a single row. The pins are numbered from left to right, with Pin 1 being the leftmost pin.
  • Pin Description:
  • 1. Pin 1: Ground (GND)
  • Function: Provides a common ground connection for the pulley system.
  • Connection: Connect to the ground wire of the motor driver or control system.
  • 2. Pin 2: VCC (Power)
  • Function: Supplies power to the idler bearing pulley system.
  • Connection: Connect to the positive voltage wire of the power supply (typically 12V or 24V).
  • 3. Pin 3: DIR (Direction)
  • Function: Controls the direction of rotation for the motor connected to the pulley system.
  • Connection: Connect to the direction pin of the motor driver or control system. A high signal (5V) sets the motor to rotate clockwise, while a low signal (0V) sets the motor to rotate counterclockwise.
  • 4. Pin 4: STEP (Step Signal)
  • Function: Receives the step signal from the motor driver or control system to command the motor to rotate by a specific number of steps.
  • Connection: Connect to the step signal pin of the motor driver or control system. The step signal is typically a pulse train, with the frequency and duration of the pulses determining the motor's rotation speed and direction.
  • 5. Pin 5: EN (Enable)
  • Function: Enables or disables the motor connected to the pulley system.
  • Connection: Connect to the enable pin of the motor driver or control system. A high signal (5V) enables the motor, while a low signal (0V) disables the motor.

#define MICROSTEPS 16
#define PULLEY_PITCH 10  // mm
#define BELT_TEETH 20    // teeth
Stepper stepper(STEPS_PER_REVOLUTION, 8, 9, 10, 11);
void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  stepper.setMicrostepMode(MICROSTEPS);
}
void loop() {
  // Move the platform 100mm along the linear rail
  int steps = (100 / PULLEY_PITCH)  BELT_TEETH;
  stepper.moveTo(steps);
  stepper.run();
  delay(1000);
  stepper.moveTo(-steps);
  stepper.run();
  delay(1000);
}
```
### Example 2: Python-based CNC Milling Machine Control (using Raspberry Pi and Py serial)
In this example, we'll demonstrate how to use the Openbuilds Smooth Idler Bearing Pulley H Groove Wheel in a Python-based CNC milling machine control system using a Raspberry Pi and Pyserial. The goal is to control the movement of the X-axis using the pulley wheel and a stepper motor.
```python
import serial
import time
# Initialize the serial connection
ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyUSB0', 9600, timeout=1)
# Set the stepper motor driver settings
ser.write(b'm17=1
')  # Set microstepping mode
ser.write(b'm18=16
')  # Set microsteps per full step
# Define the pulley wheel parameters
pulley_pitch = 10  # mm
belt_teeth = 20    # teeth
while True:
    # Move the X-axis 50mm to the right
    steps = (50 / pulley_pitch)  belt_teeth
    ser.write(f'g1 x{steps} f1000
'.encode())
    time.sleep(2)
# Move the X-axis 50mm to the left
    ser.write(f'g1 x{-steps} f1000
