General Mach Discussion / Re: HELP! My Z axis is moving in chunk steps
« on: May 25, 2011, 02:16:37 PM »
Ok tried it with 20 lines and had to slow it way down, because 20 line is only about 1/16 of an inch.
With out it being slowed down it went real fast on fast movement
After slowing it down it readover half the line before it even moved at all.
So I then tried to make the movement a lot larger like .1 inch each and it still chunked the movements instead of a smooth fluid motion.
Is there a setting I am missing ?
BTW, it jogs very smooth and it you tell it in Gcode to move by it self up and down inches it is very smooth and continuous
Thank You
