Thanks,
I tried the acceleration up to 80 it didn't seem to make a difference in accuracy but it move so fast it look like it is going to tear it self appart. I left it at 30.I turned the CV mode on and I didn't notice anything I will play with it some more. Thanks for the help

General Mach Discussion / acceleration

Hello,
Can anyone tell me if a high acceleration will reduce your accuracy. my vol is set at 300 and my acceleration is set to 5 but it is slow moving but if i set it to 30 it moves great. If I set it to 80 it slides my machine back and forth when it moves. I would like to keep it at 30 if i t doesn't hurt the accuracy.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello,
I am building a cnc router and I am having trouble with Calculating Mechanical Drive my math is very poor if there is any one who could help me i would appreciate it. I have a rack with a pinion gear PD of 1.667 and This gear has a 60 tooth pulley on it and the motor had a 10 tooth on it. I have micro stepper motor drives So any suggestion on what to set the micro steps at would help. If there is any other information you need please let me know.
Thanks for the help,
Jeff
