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.

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.
You can't specify two different feedrates. The
