Adjusting (Overriding) the Feed Rate during Cutting
You can use iModela Controller to adjust the feed rate during cutting (the speed at which the cutter moves
when cutting). The machine can be set for this to be adjusted automatically or manually. This operation is
called an “override”.
Auto
Controls by automatically increasing or decreasing the feed rate to maintain a fixed load when
the load fluctuates while cutting, due to changes in the cutting-in depth. (The cutting opera-
tion is paused if the load being applied exceeds the capabilities of the spindle motor.)
Manual
The feed rate during cutting can be manually adjusted. A fixed feed rate will be maintained
if no operation is performed. A higher product quality can be achieved if cutting can be
performed with no accelerations or decelerations. However, the cutting operation is paused
if the load being applied exceeds the capabilities of the spindle motor.
* When the motor pauses, iModela Controller displays an error message.
