General Mach Discussion / Ballscrew pitch comp

« on: June 27, 2014, 08:49:10 AM »

Are there any current plans or have there been any plugins for ballscrew pitch comp? I would like to build a very very large machine but need ballscrew pitch compensation for the machine. How it works is we shoot a laser and comp the ballscrew in .0001" increments every inch. I plan on a 200" travel X and a 100" Y travel bridge mill. This works in conjuction with backlash.
