Hi Flo, I just finished cutting a part that included a pocket that I cut using the G64 command. The cut was run at 56ipm, which I thought you might like to see. Here is a link to the youtube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2Qfor4IWHY If you click on "(more info)" under my name on the video page you can read my comments. If you click on "watch in high quality" under the video you can see a lot of screen detail showing the changing feedrates, spindle rpm, etc. Here are a few still shots of the cutting operation and the part. http://www.foxpointdesign.com/cnc_stuff/swarf2.jpg http://www.foxpointdesign.com/cnc_stuff/swarf.jpg http://www.foxpointdesign.com/cnc_stuff/pocketcut.jpg http://www.foxpointdesign.com/cnc_stuff/Toptree-sm.jpg ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by: SourcForge Community SourceForge wants to tell your story. http://p.sf.net/sfu/sf-spreadtheword _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
