Does EMC compensate for spindle speed at all in this case, or is the second encoder required for that? I don't generally expect any more from my threads than that the nut go on and not slip off. I can see where a single pulse encoder will give a delayed feedback if the speed drops sharply (most likely when the tool first encounters the workpiece I suppose)... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Benefiting from Server Virtualization: Beyond Initial Workload Consolidation -- Increasing the use of server virtualization is a top priority.Virtualization can reduce costs, simplify management, and improve application availability and disaster protection.
