Title: Must X and Y Have Same Acceleration
Post by: Kently on October 11, 2009, 11:10:27 PM

Will there be any problem with using different motor tuning acceleration parameters for the X and Y axis. Just wonder if there would be strange results if, for example, cutting a circle at a high speed or if rounded corners would be asymmetric if Constant Velocity mode is used.

You can have different vel and accel on all axis if you like :)

your suspicion that CV will be asymetric is correct. However they have to be quite markedly different before I think you'd notice (depending on your accuracy requirements of course). Personally I prefer to have X and Y accel the same for this reason.
