Hi, I'm making software for a 5-axis CNC machine and I would like to know if there is a way to move the additional axis A (without moving XYZ) avoiding that the axis stops when it reaches the target, i.e. creating a profile continuous. I have tried everything but without success. You can see the current behavior of axis A in the attached figure.

Hi arnog, I attach the picture to this message. I'm trying to approach a 5 axes machine. It's a low cost waterjet machine. In some cases I have to move only the two rotational axis without moving XYZ. The steps are quite small and I don't want that the A and C axes stops during the movements if the movements are along the same direction (example clock wise). Do you know if there is a way to do this?
Two consecutive identical positions always result in a movement stop at this position. The stop also occurs when the subsequent path connects steadily and could be traveled without stopping.

Hi Liuk I dont see a attached figure

Hi,
documentation says it's not possible.

You're not moving the target coordinates (X,Y,Z) so the position doesn't change and the movement stops.

Hi Liuk89 I don't know but are you following a g-code?
