    Feed Rate Question

    Hello All,

    Quick question for those in the know.
    On the Program Run Panel, when one modifies the feed rate does it change only the x and y feeds or does it also modify the z (tool feed) too?

    Thanks


    Mark

    It's how fast the tool is moving, no specific to X, Y, or Z.

    But yes, it will affect the Z, as well as X and Y.
