Not profiling corner , rounding corner off instead

[Adrian]

It's the CV setting (constant velocity) as far as I know in Mach3 that controls the slowdown for the corners.

Still have not been able to find what setting in MACH 3 tales care of this issue.

Of course speed has something to do with your problem.

Can a race car go around a 90 corner at 180 MPH? Nope. It decelerates, then accelerates out of the corner.

Mach 3 has settings for this. You need to look at the manual regarding setting up the machine control.

There is a motor tuning section in the software that you should get familiar with. You can control the accel/decel of every motor on your machine.

I am not trying to be a wiseguy. We do not have your machine in front of us so we cannot tell you an exact setting.

Here is a shot from the Mach3 software showing the panel that sets up accels/decels:

On my machine, I have the accel set to about 50 ins/sec. Take a look at yours, try increasing it to see what happens, don't go crazy, about 10 units at a time. If you set it too high, your machine will start losing steps.

That screen is in section: 5.5.2 Setting the maximum motor speed, IIRC you get there by selecting Config, then Motor Tuning.

Thank you Treischl .

I'll dig into the Mach3 manual some more and check & PLAY WITH my machine settings

Appreciate your assistance.

Every day we learn something new is a GOOD day!

A,

Before messing around in mach, make a copy of the mach folder.....you never know when you may need it....
