The ZMap memory is related to the size of the object, the stepover and the oversampling. It would be possible to machine a 1000 x 6000 inch part but with a...
Through taking the lazy approach of just using rhino's default mesh resolution I have sucessesfully run a 1.2 meg triangle file without any problems (fast p4...
8-o That should do it! 8-) I did'nt ran into any problem of this kind yet... was just curious to know about it... Thanks! ... any ... model ... that I've...
Robert, I don't know if this has been reported before, so here goes. I open up Meshcam V2 in a window and then go full screen, I end up with residuals of the...
It does something quite similar for me but if I just clic, hold on the mouse button and drag in the MeshCAM window working area it will refresh as soon... try...
That was done on purpose long ago since the zmap and some geometries can take so long to redraw that it could clog up the system. At the time it was felt that...
I just checked, it's G64 and G65 for MAXNC. G61 is the input sensing (digitizer) command. So it definitely needs to be configured in the post as with the other...
I generated a gcode file basd on a human figure model that was over 130 Meg with Meshcam! Unfortunatly, Mach2 hung when loading it. Lance ... to ... mesh ... ...
I just had a couple of problem loading not so large STL (1.75MB) in MC2 last night; MC was aborting because of not enought memory (video I believe)... problem...
Video memory shouln't be a problem; it's probably main memory. 1) What are the model dimensions? 2) What finish stepover? 3) What ZMap Oversampling? Also, I...
Thanks Robert. Seems that I remember some time back that you mention the reason for it being the way it was. Don ... for ... goes. ... up with ... define...
Hmm when roughing long straight lines (in X direction) they're not output as a single segment but rather a series of very short ones. Thus no time for the...
I tried the same geometry with the same tool in MeshCam 1 and it works like expected.. so it's not that the roughing algorith is bad.. but there's a bug. ... ...
There was a bug sometime back that involved the line joining problem you mention. I'll take a look at the code and see if it's still there. Just for...
I loaded a bitmap, smoothed it (which works well despite the disclaimer that it is an incomplete feature) made a tool path and then saved it. Bug 1) After...
Dear Robert, I've just installed build 2226, so far I've used 1.18. I don't know if anyone has experienced the same problem, but no matter how I scale the...
I am trying to figure out a milling strategy in Meschcam and am finding a limitation in the 2-sided setup. I can get round this by manipulating stock sizes in...
Generate the finishing pass seperately from the roughing pass. For the roughing pass, make the stock bigger, but set the offsets so the part is still centered....
I'm using build 2017, but I tried rev 1.18 and got very similar results. It seems that there is a problem related to the geometry I'm trying to mill. The...
P.S. I simulated the roughing and finishing paths in CutViewer and the gouges left by the roughing pass were clearly visible. ... results. ... to ... ...
I just uploaded a new release to http://www.grzsoftware.com/v2dl.php . It includes the new window refresh code that will cleanup the 3d view if a window is...
That's strange. Here's what I did with good results: 1) Load samplerhino.stl 2) Select MM units 3) Scale model uniformly by a factor of 10 If you do this does...
Hi Robert, If I scale by any factor (5,10,100), the geometry either disappears from the screen, partially disapears, of the Fit to Window feature doesn't work....
