Feed rate quality

If you change the feed rate from 100 to 180 inches per minute will you lose quality on the stl carving?

I run .stl files at 300 ipm.

Daniel - the machine drives the motors at the same rate regardless of feed rate, so no loss in quality from the machine perspective. However, your bit and your machine need to support the higher feed rate. Some materials might tear out and some bits might break.
