Those with High speed spindles PLEASE be careful with tools. I saw the results of a low speed tool spinning up to 10K and it was not pretty. No one was hurt BUT the shattered tool exited the steel enclosure and when through 2 walls. The operator knew it did not sound right with the spindle reving up and hit the floor then BANG.

I WISH that Tormach would consider adding a maxRPM to the tool table for each tool. Then create the function that PathPilot would respect the maxRPM for each tool. That works well with other controllers and may save someone one day. Yesterday was a close call.

You would not have to MOD the tool table just read the Tool Description and extract out the maxRPM from the description

Tool Description :

.375 EM 2F Carb MaxRPM[5000]
