MaxSpeed

Standard Word: SpindleMaxSpeed

Variable: Spindle.MaxSpeed

Type: Double

This word/variable contains the information of the maximum allowable spindle speed.

This value is retrieved from the APT/CL file and then is used in turning operations.

If the cutting speed is given as linear speed (SFM or SMM) instead of RPM in turning operations, the maximum speed that the spindle can reach should be limited to this value.

Maximum spindle speed information is first assigned to the variable “Spindle.MaxSpeed”. This variable can be used in any script.

In addition, the word “SpindleMaxSpeed” is created from this variable. This word is then used in Format Tool Change., Format Spindle Speed. or any other desired command.
