I turned on my lathe today and it was acting strangely and I'm at a loss to troubleshoot. The control is acting sluggish and doesn't seem to be catching all of the key presses and if I hold a key...

I'm setting up drilling cycles for the first time and I'm not getting a tool change command or tool length compensation output prior to the drill cycle output. My post for drilling cycles is below:

Does anyone else have this issue?
This would help prevent tool lift, but it would also move at cut speed instead of rapid speed, which is even slower than retracting and rapiding.
Is there a way to simulate cutter compensated tool paths accurately?
What is the correct setup and usage for tool radius compensation? The manual and post examples don't cover the topic very well. I'd like to set it up to use compensation values stored on the machine.
After the last Rhino 6 update, I've noticed my taper tools don't seem to simulate correctly in the cut simulator. No change to the tool definitions but the results are no longer accurate. Below is a...
It would be nice if there were an option to prevent tool lifts on linking rapids. I've been manually generating trocoidal roughing paths and having to manually adjust the rapids to the next cut to...
I'm not able to get my machine parts to show up in the simulator. I've created STL files for the table and fixtures/work holding and I'm using a default spindle head stl. I've verified the STLs are...
Using that method, I have the following:
*PLANE_XY*
0
*PLANE_XZ*
10
*PLANE_YZ*
20
Clever. Thanks!
Can I use conditional statements in the post processor? If so, what is the syntax? My control does not support G17,G18,G19 commands, but instead has separate commands for arc interpolation; G02/G03...
Is there a better way of managing speeds and feeds for different cuts than duplicating tools for each type of cut?
Is there a way to control the location of lead in/exit for 3D toolpaths?
I have the same issue
Is there a correct way to utilize the tangent assembly constraints? I broke it down to a very simple example to test it and they appear to only work for perfectly round objects. For ovals and spline...
