General Mach Discussion / feed rate

« on: September 11, 2010, 06:10:12 PM »

I think I got all where I need to be with one exception.

As I go through my machining and I use M6start mach chooses to jog feed rate of previous tool path goes to previous location and then jogs at full speed changes speed to current tool path and machines . Setting initial string say F200 does not affect that.

Is there way to change jogging speed that is not feedrate of previous tool path?

General Mach Discussion / Tool Setter set for Mach3 blue

« on: February 20, 2010, 01:51:29 PM »

This screen set I have rewritten as I have found some problems testing it.
Originally it was written by guy on video.

Note: this set is for inches as Native Units but can be very easy changed to mm
I have included in button scripts many descriptors to make it easier.

Happy testing, please let me know what do you think.......

General Mach Discussion / few problems

« on: January 10, 2010, 06:04:54 PM »

Let me explain what I am doing.
First off I do reference all after I start computer. I do referencing at 6 ipm.
1.   After loading toolpath and starting machine goes to my tool changing location at normal speed, then after z tool zero press start and machine jogs at 6 ipm.
Is this normal? It does not seem to be.....How do I change that?

2.  After loading toolpath and zeroing tool after starting machine goes to machine coordinates 0,0,0 not to work coordinates How is that changes?
