    Default How to write a Spindle Warm Up program

    I recently had my spindle redone and I'm looking to write a program that turns on the spindle at 4500rpms for 10 minutes then 12000rpms for 10 minutes then 18000rpms for 10 mins.
    Anyone have an idea as to how to write the Gcode?

    yup.
    then put the M5 at the end.
    and an M30
    :-)

    I'd also put a T_M6 at the beginning to select a tool you know is safe to run at the 18000rpms (I'm assuming you don't want to run the spindle empty)
    This way if there's not a tool in or if there is an unacceptable tool in the machine will correct the problem with no operator intervention.

    What kind of machine, this could make a difference in code...

    Yeah! I have an Omnitech Selexx Pal and it likes to see P600 instead of X600.
