spindle speed question

[kclanton]

The spindle control tool still functions, it will control the speed of the spindle. It doesn't matter what is in my tool database the spindle always
runs the speed set in the spindle control tool. Does anyone know why?

The post processor that you are using needs to have the TR,xxxxx command in it to change the RPM from within a file. What post processor are you using (name in the drop down selection box)? This is assuming that your are using VCP/Aspire/PartWorks.

i didn't think of that. I am now using aspire to make my tool paths. I was using Shopbot (inch). I will now try shopbot tc(inch). thank you.
