The scenario that lead us to check into WTF is going on is this. We'd
rapid 20" in X and maybe 15" in Y, rapid Z down to depth, off of the
steel, and then Y would start feeding to cut a wall. We noticed an
angle in the wall for the first 2" in of the wall, which is where the
x was floating into location. Not by any means out the ordinary
machining operation.

During testing we were trying a rapid versus a fast feed rate.


Sounds to me like they are handing off control from one component to the
other (takes some time), then they are going through a completely
different set of gain controls for the drive and really creeping up on
target position.



3-5 seconds is still a pretty long time--maybe tight gibs and/or too little
gain here is what I'm thinking..
