I have no experience tuning one of those drives.  (but my experience with 
torque mode was less than wonderful.)  Just curious was your machine a retro 
fit that was originally equipped with those drives, or is it a new install of 
these drives?  Were the drives velocity loops tuned for your machine before you 
tried to use them?  If they weren't properly tuned for velocity command input 
on your machine it isn't surprising that they may not work well in that mode.  
(While I haven't tuned those drives for Linuxcnc, I do have a machine that uses 
them with another control in I assumed velocity mode, I just haven't had to 
mess with them.)

hey everyone

got good news to report back here!

i changed to torque tuning and its like 10 times better than velocity tuning in 
these drives

someone one the forum said that he was starting to suspect that the velocity 
tuning on the yaskawa drives was really that bad so they allowed a torque 
feedforward setting to fix it lol

anyway my initial findings were torque control is awesome

i will post back later with more tuning findings

regards

Andrew
