hey again all..
so, i just got my cincinatti retrofit back on track after sploding some of it's parts, and finally realizing that my amps were in velocity mode, not torque mode (no wonder i couldn't tune the things out.. argh...) :withstupi
now that i'm almost back up & going, i went to do some programmed moves, as opposed to just jogging around, and am running into some nasty issues with smooth stops/transistions in G01 moves. Previously we had the machine doing great transistions & such, but as the tuning wasn't good @ all, the motion was very grainy. Now, when i command a G01 move, at say 100 ipm, and then do another move at 200 ipm, the machine "hammers" in between the moves. I've tried playing with the blending option, and the nextmove, and the slowdown. but it seems no matter what i do the machine is still coming to a very abrupt halt at the end of each move. I don't want to put a decelstop into the G01 code, as that's going to leave a nasty finish on the parts we cut.
If anyone has any good ideas, i'd REALLY appreciate it! thanks!
