Post by: Graham Waterworth on November 18, 2006, 07:50:05 AM

Hi all

I have just got this boxford running on stepper motors, never used them before its always been servos.

my question is this :-

if I can jog at 750 units/min why wont it rapid at that under G00 command?, it stalls out

Hi brian,

Setting so far

X 800 pulses/mm 1500 vel 150 acc
Y 800                 1200     150
Z 880                  1000     75

Jogging is fine, just cant get it to rapid without stalling, I have tried all sorts of combinations without any luck.
