General Mach Discussion / Rounded corners still problematic after switch to exact stop over 89 degrees
« on: February 02, 2018, 10:47:53 PM »
Hi guys I have a bunch of orders to fulfill and I thought I had this issue ironed out by telling mach3 to switch to exact stop mode on angles above 89 degrees but on random corners it still seems to try to run them in constant velocity mode.
It seemed fine the last program I ran but since then I did reduce my acceleration on my x axis but I also don't feel like that's relevant, otherwise feeds and speeds are the same.
It's not a gcode issue, i'm using vectric aspire and the rounded corners aren't consistent from vector start points or anything it really just seems random.
I can't afford to make anymore scraps, if anyone can tell me some settings to look for or change it would be highly appreciated.
Since these programs are just squares and rectangles you think I should just switch to exact stop mode for these? My only concern then is when I do run a program with other shapes or engraving and I know that stuff runs terrible in exact stop mode so I'd like to figure it out while leaving it in constant velocity if possible.
