Title: Velocity control while using Fusion/PRC
Post by: Lincon on July 18, 2019, 02:17:09 PM
Hello everyone,,
I am currently milling a simple cutout shape from sheet stock using Fusion and the PRC post processor. My Problem is that when I use the Fusion-generated path I get inconsistently spaced points causing wild variations in speed of the TCP.  I have already tried C-Dis and C-Vel with a variety of APO settings to no avail.

I have written a GH def that can accomplish this cutout with consistent speed but it does not have true CAM functionality which Fusion does pretty well.

Is there a way to achieve to consistent point spacing with the Fusion/PRC workflow?

Hello,

That usually happens when you have set a very high speed that the robot can only reach in the parts with few points.
If you are setting the speed in Fusion, reduce it. If you don't use the Fusion speed (which I don't recommend) then reduce the LIN default speed in the settings!

Best,
Johannes
