In an effort to optimize our lathe for spindle synchronized motion a question came up. Should a machine sound the same when running a G1 vs G33 at identical feeds and speeds?
When we spin the spindle at, say, 800 rpm and command a G1 move in Z at 80 ipm the machine sounds different from a G33 move at those same speeds/feeds. Perhaps for the motion planner that is two different code paths but regardless should the two moves sound identical? G33 waits for index before moves but once moving is there something going on that would cause it to sound different than a non-synchronized move? We are wondering if the difference is sound we are hearing is an indication of a problem in our spindle or in the way we are tracking spindle speed. -Tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
