Acceleration
Exact stop
Constant velocity
The lower the acceleration of the machine axis, the greater will be the radius of the rounded corner
How we do it:
In Mach3 you can set the velocity mode to either exact stop or Constant velocity. To do this go to General Configuration Logic the settings tab (page) and look for a button located above the Reset Button which says “Set Steps Per Unit”. Use this button to enter a distance to travel. Measure the actual distance traveled then enter the corrections.
