I didn't realize my dynamic braking wasn't working until I tried using CSS (constant surface speed, G96, http://linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/gcode/g-code.html#gcode:g96-g97 ) with my lathe. If your lathe can do CSS, you might want to include this in your testing. My lathe was over-volting on a rapid move from 0 radius (CSS set to 2500 RPM max.) to a 1 inch radius (a few hundred RPM) during a facing routine. It seems that my VFD doesn't honor its deceleration ramp register settings because the CSS deceleration is a bunch of speed commands (, at the servo rate?, ) from LinuxCNC rather than a single command to a new RPM which G97 RPM mode would use. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
