Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Long X axis Method of travel.

Jan
I looked a long bed machine and they had the screws fixed and turned to nut,
as I understand
you can't go very fast because of the whip in the screw. turning the nut
prevents that. There
is a term for that but I can't remember it at the moment.
