General Mach Discussion / Re: Rapids not reaching max speed

Hi Thanks for the response.

When I input that it goes -20" at 500 IPM.
Again, when I shift+Jog it in x it goes 1000 IPM. It just seems to be limited to 500 IPM when controlled automatically. Gotta be a Mach setting?

General Mach Discussion / Rapids not reaching max speed

« on: September 27, 2011, 10:34:31 AM »

Hello,

I am running a 6'x11' router with 1000 oz-in steppers (dual x) using Mach3. I think I have a set up problem. My max velocity in motor tuning is 1000 in/min on x axis and 500 on y axis. When I shift-jog I get up to 1000 in/min on x and 500 on y.

However, when I am running from G code the G0 rapid moves are slow. Sometimes slower than the cutting speed. At first I noticed in general config  that I has "Lock Rapid FRO to Feed FRO" checked and I thought that was it but there was no change in the behavior after unclicking it.

Any ideas?
