Would like opinions or suggestions about any experience
with image to g code software. What are the options?
I think I have fixed the problem with the steps per unit settings
as I ran a small program and it seems to be working. My motors
are 450 oz Microkinetics so I think it is not a motor problem...
Reset the steps per unit and velocity with motor tuning and that helped
a lot. But now the continuous jog is really hampered. I did run a program
and it kept correct depth on the Z axis which is...
Jogging in .100 steps the Z does not repeat but steadily drops.
Any suggestions? Tried motor tuning and that does not help.
My z axis continually increases depth as program proceeds.
Screen reads ok but dial indicator shows minus .003-.005 everytime
there is Z movement. Needless to say the result is not good.

Is there any sort of tutorial for Kcam available online?
Something that will take youthru tool setting and such.
I think I am just going to run Kcam for now so I can
make some stuff. I will have to deal with Mach2 later as I have
no time to play with it anymore though I would like to use it
evntually...may...
The problem is which pin do I run jump the enable to?
The enables with Kcam are configured to output pins.
I tried configuring the Mach2 to an enable thru #8 or 9
output but still have nothing.
How should these be connected. My drivers will work with
Kcam with the enable hooked up as directed to the pport pins. With Mach2
there is no pin connection for the enable, thus I cannot get ...
I want to configure my controller to run Mach2 but I need a port pin
for "enable" on each axis. How do I connect these to MAch2 as their
pin configutration does not allow for this?
Can anyone tell me more about these and who might make them.
Wondering if anyone has done thread milling on their mini-mills.
Also wondering if there is an add on to any of the software
packages to do this.
