Has anyone modified a PPR file specifically for EMC2, or is there one that is known to be directly compatible with EMC2? I'm currently using the stock...
Hello Jim, Have a look in the post processor folder on the user group site. There is a post for Turbo CNC which may be better than using the MACH post. If not...
Using 9.1.011 mill module... If I do a job with a slot and different Z feed, the post outputs that but if I do a job with holes, It won't put out the slower Z...
I have looked at the help file again and this is what it says: The Radius Offset and Length Offset fields refer to the offset registers of the NC machine, they...
I presume you're using mill? depends what machine you're using. If mill, all tools have a different length which is set against some reference point (usually...
Steve, It is Mach3 I am using on a milling machine I converted, What i was hoping it was for was for like you referd to tool wear so that I can adjust for...
Jim Some CNC controls use a Offset Register to store Tool radius and Tool Lengths (mainly mills). Where this is the case the radius is usually a 'D' address...
When you say holes do you mean drilling ? if not what command are you using ? Using the Select Tool dialogue gives you two feedrate options, the Principal ...
Jim, It's really each to their own, though personally & probably most people will define their tool(s) and let partmaster do the hard work and output the ...
Andre, yup drilling, yeah I figured that out, perhaps the select tool box could be made a bit more explicit... thanks anyway steve ... From: "Andre Mann"...
Steve, Thanks for that it has cleared up the query Jim ... From: Steve <steve_vagg@...> To: dolphincadcam@yahoogroups.com Sent: Saturday, November 18,...
setting go round in mill to no offset to machine along a line, lead in and out don't work. If I offset it left or right, it's quite happy to pay attention to...
... You can't have a lead in or out on no offset. No offset means follow the line. Think of a slot for a key, if it leads in it's not a straight line Lead in...
All I wanted to do was add a couple of mill on the end running parallel, I was doing an open ended slot, I'll know next time I draw a toolpath :) still there's...
... Steve, Perhaps quicker to edit the program. Heres a simple line and the code for it, starting at N120, roughly 0,0 [ too idle to use snap ] N 20 G00 G21...
Hi john, Yeah, I posted it & modded it, It was only a short prog to put a keyway shaft in the end of a dozen shafts. It still worked out quicker than doing it...
Hello Steve, You can't use Approach and Runoff if the tool offset is None, it's impossible to determine which side of the feature to offset the tool. However,...
Anyone out there done this? I'm using Eagle for the board layout - it has the capability to export a board layout (traces, pads, etc) in various graphic...

Holy Cow!! That's AWESOME!!!! Thanks for the tip - sort of embarassed that it was right there on the CadSoft download page the whole time, but my excitement...
... Why you would ever want to do away with etchant is beyond me. Much quicker than milling anything other than simple designs and a better finish. CNC drill...
