That's 197472 IPM! Are you sure your machine really moves that fast?
How do you secure workpieces on the table with that kind of motion?
The acceleration must be awesome for any reasonably sized machine to
ever get up to that speed. I have great trouble believing this - or is this
the speed a laser beam is being deflected at?
