I have no idea what kinematics it is running.


it will be in the HAL file.

Is this one of the ones at MPM?

Cincikins is a non-trivial kinematcs, which means that the [TRAJ]DEFAULT_ACCELERATION will be used for combined moves.
In your config that number seems lower than the individual axis values. You could try increasing it.

Yes it is the famous Blue machine. What if I just want to change the single positioning moves. It make great parts I am just trying to make it run better. (faster) The combined 5 axis moves I dont want to mess with.

When I saw the machine it was running quite an ancient version of LinuxCNC, is that still the case?

The machine probably could move faster with a trivial kinematics. With non-trivial kins the axes have to be set at speeds so that velocity limits are maintained in compound moves. This isn't very clever and I _think_ has been fixed in the Joints_Axes experimental branch.

Does the machine actually hit the X-Axis speed limit in a straight X move?

I don't know anything about your kinematics, but in your ini file you have the A and B axis set to MAX_VELOCITY = 1.2 deg/sec (or 72deg/min) and X and Y are 1.6 inches/sec (96 inches/min) Z is 1.1 (or 66ipm). If you want to go 140ipm and 160 deg/min these will need to be bumped up to 2.334 ips and 2.667dps. But that might not be every thing that needs changed because of your kinematics (but it might be a start).

Yes it would apear to be running 96ipm. Is there a way to check it. This is using the Axis UI.
Does the trajectory planner section mean anything?

Yes the settings in the TRAJ section do mean something, They set the maximums for the interpolated velocities through the kinematics, and the limits and default settings for the jog sliders. A good example of when the MAX_VELOCITY = ? in the TRAJ section might come into play; command a G0 move from X0Y0 to X20Y20. If your max velocities for X and Y are 140ipm, the actual max the machine could achieve in that move would be about 198ipm. If you add a Z move to that with the same 140ipm now the velocity becomes 242ipm (isn't geometry fun, thank you Pythagoras). In reality other than for positioning moves this extra speed isn't of much use, cutting feeds should probably be limited to the max speed of the slowest axis used.

So if my trajectory section is less ipm than the axis sections it will only go as fast as the trajectory section? The over rides are set to 2.0 that means 200%? So technically my base rapid speed could be 200% of my base feed speed? It seems like the Trajetory section doesn't make sense with my axis section?

I do not understand the terminology used in LinuxCNC. If I want to adjust my axis feed rate what is that called? If I want to adjust my axis rapid feed rate what is that called?
