Re: [Emc-users] Feed per rev (g95)

Well - I gave up trying to figure it out and scaled the velocity from the encoder counter by 16.66 and now it read correctly. So - boring at 300RPM and .001 IPR gives me .3IPM which seems right. Awesome - now when I slow the spindle rpm - the IPM slows also. (taking the same cut at .001

I don't know if you're still trying to figure this out. What was the encoder scale set to and how many pulses per rev does the encoder put out. If you're using a quadrature encoder with 250 pulses/rev, the scale should be 16.67 = (250 pulses/rev) * (4 quadrature counts per pulse) / (60

So - I have some cylinders that need to be bored and was thinking to my self - it would be cool to try out G95 so that if I want to slow/speed up the spindle speed I will still be taking the same amount of material out (say .001 per rev) I just thought I would hook motion.spindle-speed-in
