Not a technical geek so someone set me straight if I am way off here.
I have a HAAS TL-1, which has maximum spindle of 1800 RPM. I can see in the parameters there are settings for max spindle speed, feeds, etc...
If I alter these settings to anything greater I don't get any noticeable results.
Isn't the motor and drive capable of greater speeds than the factory 1800 RPMS? As well as the feeds?
What is the limiting factor here? The motor, pulley, drive?
I have some small work I would like to do with higher RPMS.
What I was thinking is that there might be a combination of other settings that also need to be changed. If tweaking these settings is even at all possible???
Figured I could get more spindle speeds by just increasing the motor pulley size. It does look standard.
The rapids would be awesome to speed up. 200 IPM is a bit slow sometimes.
Thanks,
DJ
