:D I just put a rhyming word out there :)

well here is the problem

I have set steps per millimeter as 79.577 and the motors are driving crazily slow !

now if i set it to something like 250 steps per mm. which id offcourse wrong then its crazily fast.

I know it should have been otherwise ?:confused:

i don't even know what I am missing :???????

also the whole machine racks and jerks - may be bcos I have not yet tightened all the bolts - but that can be chkd later -

hope some one can suggest what I am missing :(

Have you switched Mach from its default "inches" over to "mm"?

What is your belt ratio, pinion tooth count, and rack module/DP?

Config -> Select Native Units -> check MM
