I am using my V2-50 to make 5 axis demonstrations in a school. After programming a part with mastercam, the post will generate a G-code entirely in G93. This causes the machine to max its feedrate around 10ipm, since it is slowly reading and operating one single line at a time (or at least that is my feeling).
Is this the actual issue? I programmed the roughing to be at 90 IPM, which i discovered to be over max feed, but the machine is far from moving at its max feedrate…
hello
I use a v2-10 with Mastercam 2025 Education License and I find it can be a little hit and miss de-ending on what you are producing particularly if using “organic” stl files brought in from Thingiverse (example a persons head). What example are you producing? That said I’ve tended to be conservative with feeds and speeds and I’m not in a commercial rush to produce. On vacation this week but I’d be happy to cast a eye over if you wish to have another set of eyes.
Using pretty much the same toolpaths as in their demo videos. I am not in a rush to produce parts either, but the point of the demonstrations is to show the potential of a machine and it will often be re-running an already machined part, so no material removal…
I’ve now noticed that turning he veolcity off and back on makes the machine come back to normal speed, but for a variable time before starting to “hiccup” in it’s motions again. I have a video I will try to link in this thread.
@MisterPotatt
It maybe the G64 command that is making the machine slowdown at each goto point. Try with G64 only command at the start of the program to see if that helps. It will have a different accuracy but if it’s for demonstration and not cutting maybe it’s ok just to get the ideas over to the audience.
