I have set up a job and set the feed to 4000mm/min,

I have set up a job and set the feed to 4000mm/min, the job is complicated but the speed doesn’t come close to 4000. Is it the acceleration that slows the speed or a bug or what could be the problem… also tried a rasterized image and set the speed to 10000 as a test. But it doesn’t move close to that speed.

What board and firmware are you using?

Umm take a look to the gcode. It should show F4000 g0/g1 moves. If correct, then is hardly related with laserweb but your board/hardware.

I use arduino uno with grbl 1.1f

What’s your current grbl config settings?

$0=10
$1=255
$2=0
$3=7
$4=0
$5=0
$6=0
$10=1
$11=0.010
$12=0.002
$13=0
$20=0
$21=1
$22=1
$23=3
$24=300.000
$25=3000.000
$26=25
$27=2.000
$30=1000
$31=0
$32=1
$100=45.714
$101=45.714
$102=533.333
$110=9000.000
$111=9000.000
$112=400.000
$120=400.000
$121=400.000
$122=55.000
$130=7500.000
$131=6600.000
$132=100.000

I don’t see anything out of the ordinary with the config that would limit your speed. Post your workspace Json file.

Is the problem just this workspace file or all previous ones slow too?

Made a cut with another file, which worked fine, must be something wrong with this particular file.

try this one. The original butterfly.svg didn’t have proper vector paths so the generated gcode was 10x larger than it should be.

ok. Thanks! Will try this.
