If I want to move an axis from point A to point B & control the feed rate at the same time, what would that line of g-code look like? Thanks for your help....

I have found that TurboCNC honors the G01 modal command as long as there is not another command in the middle. For example, if you put an Automatic Halt in...

If your asking how to specify the feed rate of the move from point A (0,0) to point B (2,0) that you want to make the code would read.. G01 X2 F5 (F5 = Feed of...
Thank you for that information. I did go back and insert a single G01 after another command and it seems to work just fine. Sure saves a lot of insertions....

Not exactly an answer you are looking for but maybe related. I am using 111oz-in Steppers that I salvaged from some wide carriage Genicom printers. These...
I'm no expert, but my impression has been that the twisting helps with interference generated within and between the leads themselves, while ferrite beads...
Hi Mike, Nice job! It looks a tidy package although I don't remember seeing a yellow Bridgeport before. ;-) The quill drive is interesting. My Denford drives...
Can you post a picture of your Denford Z-Axis drive? Most of the work I do is small and aluminum. I haven't had a "Biting" problem yet, but "yet" is the key...
