I always use me old mate Pythagoras to calculate that.

Thats a cool idea Tommy. You might also notice the corners were rounded off with nice chamfers becasue I had no G64 settings. The poor old Chinese NEMA 34's couldn't keep up but the Sany Denki's seemed fine...

Pythagoras is a cool dude. I forgot about him for years but now I'm playing with Linuxcnc he keeps popping back into my life!

I said 25 to 50% as most of the time while testing the X and Y do not have the same max velocity, so i leave it at 50 to be safe.
After setting them both to the same velocity, 41.42% should do just fine.

Phill I didn't realise you was that old.

HaHa, sometimes I feel that old...

You see a lot of those aluminum extrusion tables wobble themselves apart at those speeds. I dont care what anyone says, a proper made steel table is hard to beat!
