General Mach Discussion / new question (Slow table speed SOLVED)
« on: February 26, 2008, 02:42:18 AM »
Well...I finally found the solution for this.
The problem was that after the steps per unit procedure the sliders of the acceleration and velocity at motor tunning was set almost at the lowest position.
I've changed that for x and y at 5000 and 500 and for z 2000 and 200 and it works ok.
Another New question now...
When for some reason the router finds an obstacle the Gecko drives as it is naturaly stops. My problem is that the Mach3 does not "see" that the drives have failed so it continue to count the lines as if nothing happened. Is there a way around this ?
We r making door drawings on wood so on the two sides there r clamps that holds the wood down. Sometimes when the drawing is big the drill head can stomp on a clamp and the drives fail ( there is a person that is supposed to watch over the router by u know...we r only humans). When that happens the panel (wood) is useless and the cost of it is 20euros so I would prefer if we could salvage it...
