I could never get it to run at super slow speed in voltage mode, but
could easily do so in tach mode. It was kind of nice to see.


Disclaimer:My control uses a Galil dedicted real time controller so your
results may differ.

Torque mode is the preferred mode for most all applications, certainly
for
what you're doing. Precise smooth control is not an issue at all with
lathe
and mill applications.


Karl, could you explain to me, why do you think so? Wouldn't the
milling table move at very high rates of speed if it encountered no
resistance, in torque mode?
