Above: basic idea of setup.  Microscope stage has been removed and the microscope has been turned upside down to make it right side up.  Point and shoot similar to mk0.  I soldered wires onto the shutter controllers and routed them to EMC2 (LinuxCNC) software that ran g-code to move Sherline 2000 mill stages (something I already had…and the only "nice" thing I had at the time).  Pictures were snapped by sending coolant mist (focus), coolant flood (snap picture), followed by coolant off (release shutter).  $20 laptop with a wireless card from a scrapped access point.

Revision as of 02:21, 5 March 2019

First section is about what the system does as of today. Below that shows how it arrived there

"pr0nscope"

Current configuration

Driver controller: New Focus ethernet controller

Joystick: New Focus MODEL 8754 PICOMOTOR JOYSTICK

XY stage

Klinger/Micro-Controle/Newport variable reluctance UT100-50PP (50 mm). I've read these are rated to 0.1 um accuracy. IIRC they use UE30PP motor but you can get a stepper version.

However, instead of using the variable reluctance motor a stepper motor was attached via a custom machined adapter plate, flexible shaft coupler, and 4-40 standoffs from discarded computers

Optics

Olympus BH2-UMA illuminator

Olympus LH50A lamphouse

Think Nikon makes the lamp power supply

Misc Mitutoyo Plan Apo, a couple Olympus NeoSPlan DIC

NeoSPlan DIC prism set

Sensitive tint plate

Polarizer, analyzer

AmScope MD800E camera (using Linux GSPCA driver I wrote)

Misc

CD4069 to convert 3.3V indexer logic level to 5V stepper drive logic level

Unknown who makes the base but its very heavy duty

mk0

Failed attempts that never made a working system

0.0

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk0 overview.jpg

Above: manually operated system. Clicked point and shoot camera to take pictures. t-slot aluminum lines it up to the monocle.

0.1

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk0 linear stage springy planning.jpg

Above: stepper motors with (to be added) springs to couple them to the linear stages. IIRC it took way too much force to turn the stags leading the springs to turn the stages in unpredictable bursts.

0.2

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk0 stage almost there perspective.jpg

Above: Instead tried to spring load some gears onto the stages. Slightly non-linear but very predictable. I don't recall what the specific problem was with this system, but probably just difficult to keep the gears aligned

mk1

Purchased a Unitron inverted metallurgical microscope because it was the least expensive metallurgical microscope I could buy ($200 shipped IIRC).

1.0

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk1 a unitron n.png

Above: an unmodified microscope of the same model

1.1

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk1 overview2.jpg

Above: basic idea of setup. Microscope stage has been removed and the microscope has been turned upside down to make it right side up. Point and shoot similar to mk0. I soldered wires onto the shutter controllers and routed them to EMC2 (LinuxCNC) software that ran g-code to move Sherline 2000 mill stages (something I already had…and the only "nice" thing I had at the time). Pictures were snapped by sending coolant mist (focus), coolant flood (snap picture), followed by coolant off (release shutter). $20 laptop with a wireless card from a scrapped access point.

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk1 z axis.jpg

Above: since the original stage had been removed I needed a way to focus it. Linear stage removed from a broken spectrometer found in school dumpster and spring loaded with a rubber band to maintain position (intended to be gravity spring loaded but I'm holding it the "wrong" way)

mk2

2.0

Original microscope without computer control

2.1

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk2 stage.jpg

Above: very first test before installing the tip tilt. Note riser block is still present below stage. This takes a way a lot of my clearance making it so that I couldn't use Mitutoyo objectives

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk2 tip tilt.jpg

Above: tip tilt installed shortly thereafter.

Used motors, mixed types. Minebea size 17 frames

PMC VS series drivers that I found in the trash

"USBIO DAQ" board used to bit bang step/direction signals

2.2

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk2 picomotor prototype.jpg

Added picomotor theta X/Y. have drivers and stage setup for Z but never installed picomotor mostly becasue I never replaced the cable

Ultimately it turned out I didn't really need the picomotors. The real issue was that the original leadscrew was poor quality. I just use them as leadscrews and don't use the motorized capabilities. At first I had problems bumping stage and so used the joystick to avoid touching things but now I'm quicker just adjusting by hand without issue.

2.3

Got new motors: 17PM-K318-04V

  • 17PM-K: [1]
  • General motor guide: [3]

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk2 3.jpg

As of 11/09/2013

Recent changes:

  • Use of hardware DIY indexer has enabled microstepping. Significant noise/vibration reduction
  • Implemented acceleration/decceleration logic in hardware indexer
  • On UPS (I haven't had a problem, but its right next to my room UPS)

Y motor drive box may be beginning to see mechanical failure but move to microstepping and hardware indexer has smoothed acceleration profiles significantly which seems to have sufficiently mitigated suspected stripped gear for the time being

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk2 4.jpg

07/19/2014: is currently out of service due to broken laptop (and has been for a while). replacement parts in the mail. cleaning up electronics while its down

07/28/2014: back online! Down for a few months but rolling once more

built t-slot cage around desk. mounted pegboard to which I attached the various electronics to clean them up and get them off the desk (the idea cabinet thing just wasn't working very well)

want to add:

  • finish rewiring electronics. either make pcb or use phoenix contact DIN mount screw terminals
  • get a cabinet to store spare carasols loaded with objectives
  • Can fit the confocal microscope next to it now that I have more room on the desk?
  • would be nice to get a real anti-vibration table
  • consider adding continuous running hepa filter at top (make it like laminar flow workstation)
    • problems blowing dies away?

2.6

Mcmaster cnc microscope mk6 bbb.jpg

Controller replaced with BBB

Motors replaced with IMS NEMA 17 integrated drivers

Circa 2015-09-15

Discovered my MDrive17 units are set to 51200 microstepping. This is a bit high...may pose issues getting BBB to step fast enough especially given already high gear ratio

Created high performance BBB configuration. Although my step rate is way smoother and higher than pr0ndexer, the high microstepping meant that I stayed at about the same max velocity (possibly losing some). About 4 rev/s max

"g0 x5120" 5 mm

  • 1000 steps / unit
  • 51200 steps / rev
  • 100 rev => 5 mm
  • 1 rev => 50 um
  • 1 real motor step => 250 nm
  • 1 microstep => ~ 1 nm

Appears to be either missing steps or I have the ratios wrong. Consider setting up a repeatbility test using microscope itself to target something.
