I’m using 6 servo motor and i’m connect the arduino with power supply 5v 3A and connected the servo motors with extrenal power supply 5v and 10 A but when i try to move the motor simultaneously didn’t work well if i play with more than 2 servo motor.
Servo motor used :
Mg996r 2
FS5109M 2
Ds319Mg 2
And for programming i use the normal library servo.h
With servo.write();
The problem is if i use more than 2 servo motor the system doesn’t work well at all and i can’t get any stable motion , can anyone help me?
Assuming you have the ground in place as asked in #2, and that 10A is enough for those 6x servos, I'm going to take a wild guess that your code (unfortunately invisible to us, see #1) is not co-ordinating the movement among the servos to "get any stable motion".
I've never tried to co-ordinate 6 servos, but I imagine it's quite tricky. My guess is there's a lot of blocking in your code, where maybe you wait for one servo's movement to finish before the next one starts. That will make the motion of your device (whatever it is... maybe a walking insect thingy or an arm with a grabber?) very jerky.
Solution to that (but as I said, in the absence of seeing your code it's a guess) is to redo the code to share out the movements across the servos in short slices of time.
void loop() {
for (i = 0; i < 180; i++) {
servo1.write(i);
servo2.write(i);
servo3.write(i);
servo4.write(i);
servo5.write(i);
servo6.write(i);
delay(10);
}
for (i = 180; i > 0; i--) {
servo1.write(i);
servo2.write(i);
servo3.write(i);
servo4.write(i);
servo5.write(i);
servo6.write(i);
delay(10);
}
}
with arduino mega and power supply for mega 5v and 3A and external power for servo motor and the ground is common between Arduino's power supply and servo's power supply.
Looks to me that should work ok for any number of servos in principle, so I reckon you don't have enough current if it stops working after 2 servos.
I wonder how it's all physically hooked up? The power supply might be willing to provide 10A but if you eg have it all on breadboard, that might be the problem.
) at once?
