GOTO accuracy

Hi everybody,


Im a CAM programmer writing from Italy. I was wondering if anybody knows how to set the number of digits in GOTO statements, in order to improve the accuracy, especially in case of slight rotary movements near singularity points.


Thank you very much
 
Hi if I recall correctly this can be done by setting two parameters in your config.pro


mfg_ijk_num_digits
mfg_xyz_num_digits


Best regards,

Thank you very much your suggestion is good, and your memory too!


You can add up to ten decimal digits.


Thanks againg

Also, make sure you set your accuracy in your model correctly. Check if you get handed down a model, for often designers will set the accuracy high for ease of assembly. FYI.
