try here http://cnczone.com ... Does anyone have 2 steppers 200 step./rev.,single shaft(but double shaft will be excellent),that are no longer needed and will...
I want to buy and use CNCPRO for Denford lathe.Can it work well with lathe? I don't want spindle speed control, but i want homing for Z,X Axis. SALMAN....
I am trying to use 4 milling operations as subroutines in 3 different locations using G54, G55, G56. I am able to call the subroutine to the first G53...
Its great to have software with almost no documentation. Maybe someone can help with this. I can't get the G54 offset to work. Any samples or suggestions. I...
G54-59 coordinate offsets are entered in a table (Coordinate Offsets in the Operator menu). It's been awhile, but I don't think you can enter these values in a...
Doug, Thanks for the help. I can really say this is one lesson learned the hard way. Your right there is a table for setting the G54-59 parameters. Someone...
Mach 2 now Mach 3 is the best out there , the manual is free and the program is downloadable , the only restriction is the trial program is limited to 1,000...
CNCpro is also nice because it has the best step pulse engine I have ever tested. The pulse timing (pulse to pulse period variation or phase jitter) is nearly...
... My response: I have been in recent discussions with Doug Yeager about the future of cncpro. Specifically, I was hoping that we might get the source code ...
Doug and others, I have an edited version of Doug Yeagers "instructions" and with his permission make it available to anyone for the asking. This is a MS Word...
I appears there are some undeniable attributes to CNC Pro. According to several people there are some features like the pulse generator and the ability to do...
Rich D, I would like to get a copy of the free documentation you have available for CNC Pro. Not sure how to get your offline address. New at this thread...
Doug Yeager is a craftsman and it shows in the program he wrote. It has the best crafted pulse engine I've seen done in software. I feel badly for Doug when he...
Mariss I didn't remember anyone being nasty to Doug when he told us he wanted to try a Windows version of CNCpro so I just spent the last half hour rereading...
Hello, I am new to CNC programming and Cad drawing, so please respond using simple language. I have a saw being used to cut foam. Think of the saw as a...
Laurence, Thanks for the response. Yes we have continuous contours set "on" in CNCPro. I think our problem is the generation of code coming out of BobCad...
This is only a work around for now but you could go into your setup file and set the maximum X and Y seed rate down to what ever speed your saw will cut at and...
Yeah, OK, but no one was very nice either or gave encouragement. Same difference. I characterized it as I saw it. Starting, or thinking about starting a new...
The biggest thing we are missing is tool dia compensation (G41/42). Implementation of this feature will not be trivial. Here's a thought. Suppose Doug released...
In order to prevent cutting across the parts you may have to draw toolpaths between letters and manually chain your parts. This, of course, defeats the purpose...
Doug, Thanks for the comments. I think the nesting program could give me a suggested layout to use, if I can figure out how to maneuver and duplicate a part...
This may or may not be of any help to you, but if you have not yet built the machine you should consider using waterjet instead of hot wire or abrasive wire....
You are probably right about your assessment. We don't know how easy or not the actual fix is. I suspect Mr. Yeager will in his own time fix the problem. But...
Doug, The machine is already built and will allow us to cut a thickness of foam that water jets won't. Didn't forsee the software issues though. I was...
BobCad has a program called BobWire that may allow you to get around some of the problems you are experiencing. BobWire is for wire EDM which is similar in...
