General Mach Discussion / Re: More inputs or more outputs, you decide.

HI, I feel that there should be about twice as many inputs as outputs, I would like to add a auto tool changer and a probe. in the future.

What would be needed so Mach could regulate the voltage across a plunge type EDM machine, using a stepper to move the electorde?

I had a reply pn CNC zone that told me to switch frrom Constant Velocity Mode to exact stop mode, ...you can find this setting on the config/state menu...I will test it tonight

Mach3 and G-Rex / A Lagging axis

« on: July 01, 2007, 09:23:47 PM »

I have a stepper mill with Mach 3, and I have noticed that when moving the z axis up at near top speed, the control seems to start the next move with an x or y motion before the z movement is finished. Does this mean I have my accell decel to slow, or feedrate too high, can I set a permanent dwell between blocks so they finish before the next one starts?
