G93?? Are you sure you don't mean g95??


No. What myself and a lot of router users are looking for is G93 mode. https://www.ganotechnologies.com/cnc/rapidrotary/


UCCNC is constantly going to be evolving, whether all users like it or not.
Look at it like this. There are probably 100,000 Mach3 users that at some point will be switching to another control, as Mach3 gets harder and harder to keep running. Then consider how many new people are buying CNC machines every day. I'd be trying to greatly expand the user base, rather than try to rely pn existing customers to fund development.

But that's entirely up to the developers.

And I'd gladly pay full price for an S Curve version of UCCNC, if I had too. But many would not.

Just as usefull or more would be 4th axis radius feedrate comp. Does the same thing only is user friendly to the Average user.


But G93 is a standard, where a rotary feedrate comp is not. And you don't need the CAM to support it, if you use the converter I linked to.

Fwiw, V Carve Pro and Aspire, which many people use to program rotary axis, is adding support for G93 in the next release.

But either way you do not have 4th axis tool pathing so you still are running 4th axis code blind. :shock:


I'd rather run blind, than not run at all. :lol:

The fact that we all want different things shows how hard the decisions that CNC Drive has to make are. :o

+1

If it's done as a development item (partially finished. Or attempted, just don't put it in the manual, but let the forum know to try it out.... That way you don't get complaints from new users saying this or that doesn't work and is work in progress.

It's still good to check up from time to time what the forum followers would like to see

Well to even TEST it requires a CAM that can post G93 code and very FEW can. :o


As I said, V Carve Pro and Aspire will in the next version. They are by far the most popular among router users with ±70,000 users, the majority being hobbyists.

Interesting short description of g93 implementation here for noobs / laymen like me
https://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=200454
Sounds complicated to implement

If you think about it, everything about writing a CNC control is complicated. :lol:
