Hi,
Working on a post processor to work for a 5 axis gantry Motion Master router & also a 5 axis gantry DMS router, both have Fagor 8055 controls and using TCP (Tool Center Point).
During B/C rotations, I am often getting servo/following errors. Not surprised as these rotations are currently coded with G0 (rapid) moves and occurring very fast.
I want to slow them down by commanding a G1 and a feed rate. I tried G1 F7000. on the DMS and it worked great, I'm assuming this code is commanding 7000 degrees/minute. When I take this same code to the Motion Master, the rotation(s) still occur way too fast. I must reduce it down to about F100. for the rotation speed to be similar to the DMS commanded at F7000.
I'm assuming there might be a parameter that defines how this rotational feed rate is interpreted. Degrees/minute on one machine vs. maybe inches/minute? I can't seem to find a parameter that defines this however?
Anyone know of a parameter I might check that is likely set differently between the two machines that defines how a rotational feed rate is interpreted?
OR
Any other ideas that could help me resolve my issue still allowing me to use one post processor for both machines?
Thank You
