Hello,
Turning some wood round and when returning to the next cut the cnc is running like 5ipm... Super super sloooooooooooow.
What can I check to correct the behavior?
Thank you!

Reason, because the job file tells it to feed at 5ipm.

Solution, edit the file to use a higher feed rate.

The final cut is made at 5ipm.
When the machine starts a new cut it uses 25ipm. There is no G code saying that. The 25ipm and 5ipm is just to cut.
When the Final Cut is done it returns to start at Y0.5720 and X0 and Z0.
I thought that it would take the default 50ipm from the Axis Config screen. That is what it did in the past.

Feed rates are G01. If you want a rapid rate back to X0Z0, then you need to have G00 instead of G01. Your file is all feed rate commands of G01's.

Dumb checkmark on the software. Thanks for keeping me sane here Scott.

I like to just use G1 or G0, as it doesn't mess with my eyes, astigmatism, or dyslexia.

Your last two lines would then be....

M05
G0 Z0.0000
G0 X0.0000

Yep, I think I got it.
