YetiPilot will pause the job if the feed rate persists at 10% for longer than 4 seconds. This is because very low feed can be an indicator that something is wrong.

Check:

• Is the spindle ok? (check the items listed in ‘Spindle Health Check’)

• Has the right YetiPilot profile been selected? (parameters must match exactly)

• Is the cutter sharp?

• Has the stock shifted?

• Check your spindle data connection is secure

• The cutter may be cutting too deep, check:

  • Did the job file have sensible step down depths? (see ‘Job file preparation’ for guidance on how deep each step down should be)

  • Was Z datum was set correctly i.e. is it cutting at the correct depth?

• Was the initial feed rate set too high in the job file? (see ‘Job file preparation’)

• Has the spindle speed been manually overridden to be too low?

• If none of the above items fix the issue, it may be that our presets for cutter and material are inappropriate for your exact setup.

  • Please use the Advanced Profile options to increase the target power until the nominal feed rate matches expectations.
