i dont do anything crazy accurate.
so it looks like i should start low on the encoder count and work my way up to the performance level i need?
my encoders are pin adjustable. they are the cui 102's

well, i am going 1024 on the encoder, 4-1 on the pulley ratio, and .200" screws.  80 ipm rapids
i think it was like 92k or something on the motor tuning.....

why would x or y be smooth on there own but both rapiding together makes for a very jittery movement? it rocks the mill pretty good.(5000#)
it is only 80ipm rapid
the servos are tuned well and have plenty of power  80v  40A

i have searched but cant hit the keywords to get the results i am lookig for....

thanks

why does my code want to cut at the machine cord z0?
i set it so the maneul tool change can be done by hand.

this is a single g code part that i got my g55 offset to make 2 at once. i have 2 vices on the mill.
