Title: feed speed
Post by: gmccorkill on March 01, 2011, 07:31:16 AM

Is there any way to speed up feed beyond the overide?Even using the max override machine is still slower than i think it can go

Feed is commanded with the F word in your code, so for example if you had G1 X10 F100 it would move at 100 units per min.

adding to Hoods ... FRO only goes to 300%  of commanded feedrate.
If you want to go faster than that, and the max speed in motor tuning will allow, you'd have to increase the F feedrate in the code.
