You are awesome Rob! I kinda think :o I figured that part out also but surely appreciate your efforts! :cheers:
:D Post worked great but I did have to e-stop it first time as it had a G91 code in there at the tool change and cutter tried to rapid into my chuck. Thankfully I sat through it and stopped it. I...
Awesome Guy (Rob)...can't wait to check it out! The whole post thing is interesting to me and I'll try and figure out what the differences are. I'll play it safe for sure...and try it on a couple...
Interesting...re-posted only changing zero pick point to center of axis and I get no semi-colon due to your post but the program will drop the tool before it gets to a pocket. No real...
OK guys...lot to try. The code looks better now but I'll try the center of rotation change first just to confirm.
If that does not do it I will ask for the Post.
But I won't get to try a cut until...
Hi Guys...
Burrman...I can try resetting true machine Home and see what happens but honestly I have never done this and not seen this problem before. I have never checked out each and every code to...
This is the result...
I'll run it when I can but it looks to me like it will still drop the tool at A0 and wrap 46.4 degrees for the start of the pocket.
656. Block delete? " " This is where my post shows the...
I do not have homing switches. Homed OK? It is aligned accurately but the Machine Zero is really something I never use due to not having switches.
I will give it a shot and let you know. I may...

Hello...Happy New Year!
I don't know what to search for or what part of the process is messing this up so posting here.
I use BobCad-for Cam and have a 4-axis router fed via Mach3.
I am...
Thanks guys...appreciate the help!
That makes sense now. Guess that is part of the problem self teaching yourself complicated software. I'd watch the video...link?
OK...thanks much JRMach! It is clear to me now what is happening. For anyone following this thread...
The Z-Level Rough only drops down per instructions (.100") until it hits bottom and...
Giving up...every Finish Z-Axis path has an issue...moving to Planar finish. Thanks JRMach...
Yes...agreed it looks better on that aspect but will mean more sanding to complete.
Meanwhile I made it all a mesh and it does the same thing. :( Gonna try to play with the part top and bottom.
Thanks JRMach...I have sent you the file. It is a mesh body for the most part at least with multiple heights. I would understand if it was just at that top level but it adds the extra cut on every...
Hi...tried resetting top of part and bottom...first cut as above went right but added same issue elsewhere.
will send PM...appreciate the thoughts and help.
the tool path doesn't show anything either...385096
As I ran the simulation it starts doing so on the first moves...cuts the chamfers first then moves to correct position and cuts down fine.385080
Just the top of each feature.
(Machine Setup - 1...
V28 Standard... let me look at the simulation and see if I can peg the area where it starts...
Thanks...
Hello...trying to use Bobcad V28 in 3-Axis Z-Level Rough and Z-Level Finish.
Roughing looks OK...but Finishing adds an extra cut or 2, like on the lines...instead of if outside or inside the line....
Thank you...sorry for delay in answering...forum access glitch with changing e-mail address.
I have read different accounts as to how this works and assumed as much but also thought with my...
Hello...I have a controller that uses a single plug for all limit switches. Standard small headphone size plugin. I wired the 2 gantry limits in series as shown. I only have these 2 so far. I...
Truth be told my solid part lines were not perfect either so reworking those in 2D and following your guys help...got it!
Perfect plan Sir! Thank you very much!
Thank you all for looking and offering support.
Thank you...I always draw a solid object to what I want and then program from that. Perhaps that is wrong and I should work off sketched lines. I am aware of the dashed line allowing cut through but...
