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.

  • Most of the Globals are locked out internally on speed. So even if you type max accel to 50,0000 it'll only move to it's internal speed setting. Same with the movespeed command being set to very high it'll still move to what it's locked at like in your case.

    Assuming it's locked.

    Use the command I listed above and put 5K in there along with absolute speeds set at 500. Create a safe move point and test....don't crash!
