Can you describe the discrepancy in any more detail than "scrambles" or provide us with an example of the error you are receiving? We are a partner with Bob-Cad and haven't heard of anyone having...

You can order them from our parts department, or source them around the internet. Send an email to Parts @ torchmate.com (no spaces) and they can get you a quote.

I know of a few customers who worked with mastercam to generate a Torchmate post script for 2d plas cutting. If you get a hold of them you may even be able to get your hands on it.

Quite simply...

All very good information. Replace the felt wipers often on the cassette to increase its service life, and blow out the gear racks with compressed air (do not oil or grease them! If you do clean and...

It is exactly this. I hear every day how difficult Torchmate CAD is compared to a customers AutoCAD variant, and I also hear people who know Torchmate CAD who say that AutoCAD is extremely...

Yes, the Torchmate CAD and software and Torchmate driver's software will operate on a mac with bootcamp, as long as it's the newer macs that are intel based.

Did you have any specific questions we could answer here? Also give us a call if it's within our hours and one of our Tech's can help you out with anything specific you might have on software...

If you are just outputting a DXF file, you should just Export the DXF from Torchmate CAD instead of doing a machine output. Tiling is on the single row tool bar that comes up with the pair of...

Andrew,

I apologize for no one being able to tell you the exact problem with your AVHC, but based on your symptoms it doesn't seem there is one simple answer for you. How long ago did you...

What version of the Torchmate CAD are you using? In cad 7 or newer, you should simply need to uncheck the tiling option. In CAD 5 it should be the same, but it's been awhile since I've worked with...

I'm not very familiar with Autocad, however if this PEDIT can connect an entire object, or drawing together before exporting, then it should do the same as doing a Connect Path in our Torchmate CAD....

When AutoCAD exports a DXF file the part is broken wherever a straight line meets another straight line, or a straight line meets an arc. In our CAD software, the objects need to be connected back...

Since you said the voltage remained the same, I'm assuming you are running one of our AVHC units and the unit is in Automatic mode. If this is the case, for each line, the height of the torch is...

We usually have the water from the top of the slats, to at least 1" below the slats. Since we typically run a 3" tall slat, this is about 4" deep.

M06 TX is the tool change command where X is the tool number, and G43 HX is the cutter adjustment command with X being the tool number. In the program you would want to add these in at the tool...

The Torchmate CAD software will accept DXF, eps, ai files to work with. The Operational machine software will only work with the 2x2, and the electronics are limited in their settings as to only be...

Sorry for the late reply,

The 4th axis has to be assigned as a slave axis, for example X1 Y2 Z(or A)3 X4. This would allow you to work with constantly having the rotational axis installed. You...

I think I spoke with you this morning about it, but there is a procedure for removing the 64 bit drivers permanently so XP quits looking for them. Give a call to Technical Support and we can walk...

Yes, 3 & 4 typically go to Torch and 12 & 14 go to OK to Move.

-Mike

Pins 1 & 3 are the OK to Move wires, and pins 6 & 8 are the Start/stop (trigger) wires.

Have you run a gear ratio test yet? Most likely your gear ratio needs some fine tuning if you are off between your X and Y axis. Shoot me an email and I'll send over the walkthrough guide on...

Make sure the set touch torque is set to at least 18 under the setup menu, and if it is, then there is a resistance issue in the lifter station. It may need to be realigned. Just shoot an email to...

You can lightly oil them, wd40 usually does the trick. Some people will actually wax them. The bearings, I wouldn't worry about them. They are sealed and greased.

You can check the output voltage to the cards, each card should be reading 36v DC, and the drive box fan should be receiving 24vdc. If these numbers are much lower than that, I would suspect the...

If you swapped the motors and the problem continued, I would highly doubt you have a "weak" motor(s).

Pushing the motors while energized does not damage the motor in any measurable way.

You...

The only difference between auto and manual mode is that auto is sensing and adjusting for arc voltage.

It appears you have some, or many settings incorrectly set in the system. What is happening...

I've encountered that problem a few times in the past where the file becomes corrupt. I have never had a reinstall not fix the problem, perhaps you tried to "repair" the installation instead of...

They do not come with them, but you can build a tray to sit on the inside of the frame fairly easily. Give us a call if you have any questions on it.

-Mike

I would agree, MDF is a good spoiler board. It does get cut and eventually will need to be replaced, but it's easy on the bit and a smooth flat surface to put stuff on.

We do sell an upgrade kit for the 4x4 to go to a 4x8 machine, including all the necessary hardware, cabling, and extrusion. You should call in and get a quoute to see if you've thought through all...
