    Now there's a question that gets people butting heads. . .Lol. . . . Why do you ask.?

    My answer is NO absolutley not. High rapid speeds are only any use for A-2-B positional moves like drilling lots of holes or with very large machines. Small machines then IMO it's pointless and can easily get folks into trouble with crashing machine into hard stops etc.
    With a small machine your much better off sacrificing Velocity in favor of accelleration and often it brings cycle times down anyway.
