I am not too far from adding a 4th axis to my Bridgeport Interact mill. The 4th axis will be a servo driven rotary table that sits vertically on the milling table, so that the axis of the rotary ta ble is parallel to X.
I have a question, inspired by a recent discussion. Let's say I wanted to mill a helical spiral. Can I use EMC2 to instruct the milling table to move along X at a given velocity, while at the same time, the rotary table is turning with another given angular rotational speed. In other words, can I specify two speeds, one for XYZ move and another for the angular speed? I apologize in advance if I used wrong terminology. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ What happens now with your Lotus Notes apps - do you make another costly upgrade, or settle for being marooned without product support?
