I have been working on a spindle component that can handle up to 16 gears. For each gear you can specify the acceleration, deceleration, min speed, max speed and output scaling. If you have a spindle encoder it uses the feedback to limit the acceleration based on spindle load. It also provides a filtered spindle speed output for a spindle speed display. I still need to do some cleanup work but it is working well on my lathe. I'll release it once I have finished tidying it up.
