Speeding up X and Z axis lathe operation

Post by Keef » Thu Mar 01, 2018 12:17 pm

I'm using KFLOP and the Konnect board to control 24V brushed DC motors with encoders in a simple lathe operation. I have the system working, but would like to speed up the entire operation. I have tweaked the individual lines of G code using G01 commands with feed rates, but is it possible to speed up the ENTIRE system in the C program ?

Hi Keef,

You would need to explain exactly what you are doing. What is slowing the operation down? What are you doing in the GCode and what are you doing in the C Program? Post a simple GCode Program and your C Program.
