Short reply is - the THCUD does not work for servo loops but is designed
for stepper systems.
You will have to look at rolling your own control and for servos that
might take some doing.
The general consensus is that you axis of a plasma. Most systems use a
standalone THC system that drives

I am not part of that consensus. I see absolutely no reason to prefer
any motor type over another in

sorry there are some words missing. This is what I meant to say.
The general consensus is that you dont use servos on the Z axis of a plasma.

We are trying to adapt our Techno router (servo, not stepper) to use a
plasma torch I'm having some difficulty understanding how to utilize
the thcud hal component. Conceptually, it seems simple: the component
sits between the axis and pid modules of the z axis and adds a
correction to the

Where are you looking? You won't see any height
