Axis control using handwheel!

    Hello,

    I need to manually move the axes independently using a 3-axis cnc machine handwheel. This movement will reflect the rotation speed to the axis when the wheel is rotated and the axis direction will be tainted from the direction the wheel is rotated. As the wheel speed is turned, the axis speed will increase at the same rate, and the speeds will decrease as the wheel slows down. I'm not sure which function block I can use to do this? Anyone know about this?

    Enjoy your work.

    Hey you can use gearin function.
    define your handwheel as encoder axis as master and define gear ratio in gearin function block.
