WeCreat Vision Rotary Steps-Per-Rotation & Calibration Tool
Eliminate oblong circles and vertical stretching on the WeCreat Vision. Use our interactive calculator below to correct your LightBurn steps-per-rotation or GRBL $101 commands, then download a millimeter-accurate calibration ruler SVG.
Rotary Steps-Per-Rotation (SPR) & GRBL $101 Calibrator
Preset: WeCreat Vision (20W / 40W Diode)
Measure along the Y-axis (rotary circumference direction).
Enter this in LightBurn > Tools > Rotary Setup > Steps per rotation.
Safe continuous rotary perimeter without slipping: 224.7mm.
$101=100.000Always send this command in LightBurn Console after disconnecting the rotary attachment to restore flat Y-axis belt scaling.

Step-by-Step Rotary Setup & Test Burn Checklist for WeCreat Vision
- Drop the floor drawer; place WeCreat Rotary attachment in center notch.
- Plug rotary data cable into the internal base receptacle.
- In MakeIt software, click 'Rotary Mode' > select Chuck or Roller.
- Measure diameter with calipers and sync to software preview.
- Execute test pattern burn.
Worked Calibration Example for WeCreat Vision
Suppose you place a standard 20oz Skinny Straight Tumbler (Diameter: 73mm, Circumference: 229.34mm) onto the WeCreat Vision.
You enter a commanded test square Y-height of 20mm into LightBurn with the baseline of 12800 steps/rev.
If using GRBL steps/mm, the corrected formula produces:

WeCreat Vision Rotary Calibration FAQs
Q1: How do I configure the rotary attachment on the WeCreat Vision in LightBurn?
To set up the WeCreat Vision in LightBurn: 1) Go to Tools > Rotary Setup. 2) Select your rotary type (Chuck). 3) Enter the factory baseline: 12800 steps/rotation (or check Y-axis $101 steps/mm). 4) Enter your roller diameter (16mm) or tumbler caliper diameter. 5) Enable the 'Rotary Enabled' toggle and test frame your object.
Q2: What is the factory default rotary steps/mm or pulses/rev for the WeCreat Vision?
The WeCreat Vision uses a baseline of 12800 steps per revolution for chuck rotary mode, and 100 steps/mm for flatbed Y-axis movement. Drive roller diameter on factory rollers is 16mm.
Q3: How do I reset the WeCreat Vision back to flat-bed laser cutting after rotary engraving?
When disconnecting the rotary attachment, disable 'Rotary Enabled' in LightBurn. For GRBL-based controllers, send the command: $101=100.000 in the Console window to restore true 1:1 flatbed Y-axis gantry movement.
Q4: What is the best way to focus the WeCreat Vision on a cylindrical tumbler?
Enclosed HD camera detects tumbler apex and auto-drives gantry Z-height. The focal length is 48mm with an optical spot size of 0.08mm. Always focus at the apex (highest vertical point) of the cup to ensure maximum beam energy density.
