Some controllers allow you to adjust for a spin up time, others do not and immediately proceed to file execution where it may not finish spinning up before contacting the material. Some Automatically include this by adding a M0 Message acknowledging your ready.
If you aren’t able to directly control a dwell with your machine controller, another way to do it is with your post processor so that a G4 command is inserted. Here are the steps for doing it in Vectric.
Step 1
Vectric: enable hidden files and folders. Navigate to “c:/program data/ventric/aspire/VERSION NUMBER/pp/” and there you will find all the post processors. Copy the one you use for your machine to your desktop.
Step 2
After you have your post processor on your desktop, change the extension of the file from .pp to .txt and locate the M3[S] command in the header.
Step 3
Following the M3[S] line and following the formatting, add G4P6000
Step 4
Save it, and close the text file and change it back to a .pp extension
Step 5
Drag and drop your updated post processor to: “c:/program data/ventric/aspire/VERSION NUMBER/My_PostP/”
