Speed up return for next pass

Post by KJRiley »

Did a search and didn't find anything.
When running a job and the router lifts out of the workpiece the machine returns for the next pass at the same speed you're cutting at.
Is there any way to speed up that return for the next pass?

Thanks

The speed of those moves are generally controlled by the jog/rapid move speed set in your control software.

I know the Next Wave machines are a bit odd though so you may not be able to change that without messing about with the post processor.

Not sure how to do that as I'm new to this.
I'll research that and see what I find.
