So - I have some cylinders that need to be bored and was thinking to my self - it would be cool to try out G95 so that if I want to slow/speed up the spindle speed I will still be taking the same amount of material out (say .001" per rev)
I just thought I would hook motion.spindle-speed-in to**the velocity output from the spindle encoder that I am using for rigid tapping. (1024 line - so the scale of the encoder is set to 4096) And it works just great for rigid tapping The thing is - the velocity out of the mesa encoder seems to be 1/1000 of rpm. Which makes no sense to me. So if the rpm is set to 300rpm - the velocity pin of the encoder counter is outputting .300ish. Should it not be 5? (5rps) I am stumped sam ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Got Input? Slashdot Needs You. Take our quick survey online.
