Top Speed For CMM

Figured I would ask on here before I call up Hexagon and ask for assistance. So This new company I'm working with has bought a brand new off the shelf 7-10-7 global EPS (aka, Brown&Sharpe) top speed parameters shows 300. This thing is slower at top speed then this old Mistral, I used to run. I would think this thing should go a lot faster. At one facility here, I have a 5-7-5 global EPS top speed 500. I would like to believe that this thing should move, so before I go changing any numbers. I would like to know if this is the best this thing can do or is there a setting that can make this thing move. Calling out , , , or anybody else that may know the answer.

  • So That we are on the same page. These settings right here?

    {"data-align":"none","data-size":"large","data-attachmentid":445215}

    This from a different machine.


    Not EXACTLY sure, since all the options and stuff will be different for different controllers, but under F5, Part/Machine, there is a setting for DISPLAY ABSOLUTE SPEEDS, a box to mark, then a place to put the speed (Sharpe32). I get the same on the Global (whatever it's controller is). How did you get to that page? Is that F5 or something else?
  • Yeah what said or before you open a program. Under Edit/Machine Interface Setup. And Yeah I know the check box item. Now that Hexagon has made this default, being a % guy I have had to uncheck this box. since what?, 2016 version? because before I could go into Settings editor and change it there. It don't work anymore. But Yeah, I'll try this and crank it up. I have a bad feeling this thing is set to as fast as it will go. Which is really sad.
