It kicks you in the wotsits again....
I thought i'd try engraving on the bridgeport conversion today, got a little job coming up, knocked up a simple job - just the word 'Test' in V-Carve, 2mm deep 30deg 0.2mm tool.
Worked fine on my mini-mill before.
Every time it hits line N2230 i get the damn ePid fault and everything stops.
I tried 50% feed-rate, no change.
The motion seems very harsh, its lots of little moves but the machine shakes when it does it.
Acceleration too high? It's currently set on 400mm/s/s and speed is 3500mm/min and seems pretty low i think??
I have 0.05mm backlash comp set at 10% speed.
Its been working well up to now.
Any ideas???
