HELP PLEASE
How do I slow the rapid down on my Mazak Slant turn 30,I can't find which parameter to change.

It would help if you can tell us the control model.

Probably a T-1 which has a "Rapid Reduce" button that slows the rapid by 50%. T-32 would have a five step "Rapid Reduce" That slows it down by 50%,
75% and down to 5% (steps have parameter settings that can change the percentages) T-PLUS has the same as T32. Someone could change the parameters to 100% to lock out rapid reduction. (some sneaky operators will reduce rapids to make the cycle longer)

Rapid traverse rate is 092 for the X and 093 for the Z.
Units in mm/min if mm output or 0.1"/min inch output.
