hey dave I hear you. I might get good at coding myself soon.. but would love to solve the problem.
I don't think the spindle load could really help much though. I am machining plastic and aluminium and the spindle load doesn't noticeably change in corners. I more need a limit on the initial acceleration for a split second I suppose or go the full way and have something that analyzes the G code path and calculates the best speed and path for the machine regards Andrew regards On Tue, Sep 22, 2020 at 11:35 AM dave engvall <dengv...@charter.net> wrote: > HI Andrew, > Just because I have ideas does not imply I can implement them. ;-) > However, I believe there is a velocity pin that might be used to slow > down in corners.
