Fadal 4th Axis

[OLD DUDE]

I have a rotary toolpath on my Fadal and the feed is extremely slow-any suggestions? I am using the format 1 post. I believe it may be something to do with inverse time??

The G93 code for inverse time feed is not present in you code. 

Have you tried running this on your machine? Is the post, machine, and rotary capable of running in inverse time feed?

 

If your post is compatible then I believe all you should need to do is turn the switch on in the post and it should give you what you need.

Thanks Oscar- I will give it a try.

When outputting feed on every line of the A axis rotary code the format is typically deg/min.

If your machine does not use deg/min you can change the output format to in/min or mm/min in the control definition.

To make the unit/min format a default global setting.

- go to settings drop down

- open the machine def

- open the control def

- go to "feed" in the control topics

- set the rotary output to unit/min
