Hello,
I am new to this forum and I am struggling with a slow path generation when loading g-code file into mach3. This happens when G92 command is inserted to zero the A-axis.
To get you an idea of the
setup:
I made an embroidery machine with my CNC. The sewing machine is driven by the 4th axis and every stitch needs a full turn (360°)
Ex. :
(STITCH_COUNT:13724)
(EXTENTS_LEFT:-46.934)
(EXTENTS_TOP:-40.562)
(EXTENTS_RIGHT:46.934)
(EXTENTS_BOTTOM:40.562)
(EXTENTS_WIDTH:93.867)
(EXTENTS_HEIGHT:81.125)
G90 (use absolute coordinates)
G21 (coordinates will be specified in millimeters)
G0 X0.0 Y0.0
G0 X-32.894 Y2.864
G92 A0
G0 A360
G0 X-32.541 Y2.202
G92 A0
G0 A360
G0 X-32.189 Y1.540
G92 A0
G0 A360
G0 X-32.541 Y2.202
G92 A0

G92 A0
G0 A360
G0 X-30.270 Y3.366
G92 A0
G0 A360
.......
File contains 41000 lines and this takes at least 15 min. to load. G92 command is needed to zero the A-axis for another turn to take place.
Anyone having an idea how to speed this up?
