Wondering how your progress is going. I'm picking up a 6 axis robot and hoping to use a duet board for main the control. Any advise would be appreciated.

@JoergS5 thank you, I'm in the learning stage myself. This is why I thought it would be a good idea to seek outside assistance.
Cheers for the link gives me plenty of information to go by.

@T3P3Tony I am speaking to a software company this Friday to see if this is possible and potential costing.

@dc42 thank you I will give it a go .

@T3P3Tony thought I should add this would only be for motion.

@T3P3Tony understood, maybe via raspberry pi using python for instant conversion of commands.
I saw a converter on github using python to convert files but could this be done line by line in real-time?

Would be great to use this on the older system s4c, since it has connectivity restrictions as well as memory.

@T3P3Tony thank you this is what is from the description on the website.

Main technical parameters of PT131 melt pressure sensor;

1. Range: 0-200 MPa
2. Accuracy: 0.2FS
3. Output signal: 2mV/V; 3.33mV/V
4. Power supply voltage: 10VDC
5. Temperature models: J, K, E, PT100
6. Temperature resistance of diaphragm: 450 C
7. Temperature zero drift of pressure sensitive diaphragm: <0.3MPa/100 C
8. Electrical Connection: Seven-core Connector Pin

@T3P3Tony apologies for the delay, sensor is a PT131 pressure transducer.

Hoping for some help, looking g at 6 axis robotic printer. I love how easy duet setup is so want to implement control on a ABB 6400R IRC5. What I was thinking is that if g code can be converted to rapid surely the reverse is possible. So wondering if via the can connection would this be possible. Obviously some sort of protocol/board required for can to profinet.
Might be asking too much but never know until you ask.
Main reason for me is I am not very computer literate but can use the duet setup and would be a far easier for me personally.
Look forward to your reply.

@jay_s_uk OK thank you.

@dc42 any updates? Also was wondering if there is capability in independent z axis as well?

Wonder if it is possible to connect a melt pressure transducer to Duet 3HC. Want to add a melt pump to my pellet extruder, using a pressure transducer either side of the pump would be very useful to regulate flow.
Any help would be appreciated.

@dc42 was wonder if there is a way to implement a trigger function. This might allow independent z axis.
I'm not a programmer so probably asking a stupid question.
Thinking if each head has trigger for layer completion to tell the system to send next line of commands to specific head.
Mechanical or digital not sure which would be best.
Sorry if it's a stupid question.

@dc42 thank you guess I'll have to leave that one for now.

Good morning I am interested in using a tool board for my pellet extruder.
Just for the accelerometer, thermistor and endstop.
Was wondering is it possible to add another thermistor?
I require 3 for the pellet extruder.

@t3p3tony understood thank you.

@t3p3tony thank you for your reply.
Will there be an update for position feedback for the 1xd boards?

I have 7 x 1xd boards for my 5 axis 3d printer build will these new boards work with them?
These are for my 400 watt jmc servos.

@o_lampe thank you I will try that.
Might be a while, should start wiring in a few weeks.

@mrehorstdmd using liquid cooling, tools will only change once the unit is cooled.
Just want to make sure the control board does not have a fit when I disconnect the tool.
