RE: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Profiling circle errors

You need to set VisualMill to generate curves. It's under the options
menu somewhere.
Otherwise it'll generate a series of small line-segments, and this is
what your sound will be.

Check the G-code, you'll see lots of little g01's scrolling by for each
jerk, rather than a single g02 or g03.

Subject: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Profiling circle errors




I just got my machine up and running. It has 360 oz/servos coupled 2
to 1. Running mach 2. I am generating the cam from visual mill.
When I profile a circle, its not one smooth motion, its like little
tiny jerks. Where is this coming from. The encoders are only
250cpr, is this the cause of it? I am stumped otherwise. Thanks for
your time.
