Re: Support
No .. maybe I did not express it clearly. When you use a gearing, like a belt drive, the torque, and thus acceleration, is increased by the gear ratio. So,, IF for examlpe the acceleration was 10 (at

I was reading your set up and one thing that caught my attention is you are zeroing your Z to the table, is Vectric material set up with Z- zero at the bottom of your material? Turbosnipe87 To:

Re: Support
Each machine is special in terms of accel and vel settings. My proceedure was to set an accel , run the axis back and forth ( or up and down) with the arrow keys until quite smooth in its reversal.

Re: Support
This is a very good system. ( I would drive the z axis at 1:3, for more 300% torque = acceleration.) Try Arts test at the lower acceleration, and let us know. It will likely make a difference, or lead

Re: Support
Andre: Try one test.. lower Z accel to 10.. run your job. If it runs fine, ( I suspect it will), raise Z slowly till you see trouble, and then back it off 20%. From then on you should be gold. Thanks,

Re: Support
What motors are you using; Ie what is your motion-control train ? Steppers ? Drivers ? Volts ? Belts or couplers ? Breakout board ? Do you only have 86.x steps / mm on x ? -- -hanermo (cnc designs)

Re: Support
Agree 100% with Art. I would also suggest, that it may very well be an acceleration issue rather than a top speed issue. Especially with steppers. The way machines must be tuned, is for the worst

Do you have an ATC? If not, how are you setting Z zero? You can probably remove the G43 from your code and it should get rid of the problem. Gerry
