That might not be necessary, you can probably use the existing axis
velocity pin.
I would like to dynamically change the flow rate of material feed of my
plastic rapid prototyper. The material is dispensed by a step motor on the
A-axis. A is running proportional to the combined speed of X and Y (always
counting up) . The scale factor for A is set at the G-code generation, it is
2012/1/18 Lars Andersson l...@larsandersson.com:
net flowrate stepgen.3.position-scale = input.0.abs-rx-position
This is not allowed, stepgen.3.position-scale is a parameter, not a pin
Then You can solve the cause of the problem - change it from parameter to pin.
In simple HAL module it
I think as long as you're modeling your extruder as an axis, you can't change
it's speed without also changing the speed of all the other axes (by using the
feed override knob on the motion controller).
Also, as long as your extruder's position is controlled by the motion
controller, you won't
Lars,
Take a look at the THC comp to see how I hijacked the position commanded
for Z and lied about the position feedback.

You could put a scale component between the axis and the stepgen.
I think, though, that you might have more luck putting the A stepgen
into velocity

This immediately gives a joint 3 following error even for a very small

Can I work around this?
The problem appears to be, as someone pointed out, that changing the
scale factor also causes a step in the output due to a multiplying the
