WinPC-NC Economy Parameter settings
Speeds parameter
Rapid speed
Speed with the
tool raised
Rapid speed is used for moving to a new position with the tool lifted
out of the workpiece.
These are unproductive movements which WinPC-NC always moves
at the fastest possible speed.
Jog speeds
These parameters specify the speeds during jog mode. Two speeds
can be defined.
Individual steps
or continous
movement
The motor changes over to continuous movement if the key or the
mouse button is pressed for a longer time. It moves at the speeds
defined here in this case.
It makes sense to use fast speed to traverse long distances, while
exact positioning is facilitated with slow speed or single steps.
Reference speeds 1/2
In reference movement, each axis starts moving at speed 1 and
searches for the reference switch.
The axis is braked when the switch changes the level, at which point
the axis moves in the opposite direction away from the switch at
speed 2.
