This is CNC machine feed regulator.
At 100% the actual feedrate will be that in the code.
With the regulator, you can slow it down, or speed it up.

Thank you so much. Do you know what these lights at the top are for?

I can not say what they are for from what I see here.

how long are you going to just mess us all around by showing us small section pics of some unknown much larger machine ??
your method is very frustrating to everyone
show a pic of the whole machine including its information labels !
else I will suggest to the mentors to lock this thread

1. What is a CNC machine feed regulator?
A CNC machine feed regulator is a device used in computer numerical control (CNC) machines to control the speed and movement of the machine's cutting tool. It regulates the amount of material that is fed into the machine, ensuring precise and accurate cutting.
2. How does a CNC machine feed regulator work?
A CNC machine feed regulator works by receiving signals from the machine's computer to adjust the speed and movement of the cutting tool. It is typically controlled by a servo motor that receives commands from the computer and adjusts the feed rate accordingly.
3. What are the benefits of using a CNC machine feed regulator?
Using a CNC machine feed regulator offers several benefits, including increased precision and accuracy in cutting, reduced production time, and improved efficiency. It also allows for more complex and intricate designs to be created with greater ease.
4. Are there different types of CNC machine feed regulators?
Yes, there are different types of CNC machine feed regulators, including servo-driven and stepper-driven regulators. Servo-driven regulators are more commonly used and offer faster response times and higher precision, while stepper-driven regulators are more cost-effective and suitable for simpler cutting tasks.
5. Can a CNC machine feed regulator be used in any type of CNC machine?
Yes, a CNC machine feed regulator can be used in various types of CNC machines, including milling machines, lathes, and routers. However, the specific type and compatibility of the regulator may vary depending on the machine's specifications and requirements.
