    RhinoCAM 2012 issue (not posting correctly)

    Hi,

    I am a long time user of RhinoCAM 1.0 on Rhino (3 and 4) without any issues

    Recently I upgraded to Rhino 5 and finally installed RhinoCAM 2012 (lucky for me I kept the old Rhino 4 on the system).

    The steps I have taken and the issue is this:

    1. I started Rhino5 (with RhinoCAM 2012) and made sure all the units were set to inches
    2. I drew a test part (shown below as part)
    3. I set up 2 simple profiling operations and ran a simulation in RhinoCAM which worked fine (shown below as simulation)
    4. I posted the results using Mach3-inch in RhinoCAM 2012 and got the file (shown below as Part (RhinoCAM 2012_Rhino 5).txt)
    5. looking at this file it is not going to run much of anything, to make sure I loaded it into Mach3, started up the system and tried a test cut. As expected nothing moved.
    6. I took the same part file and brought it up in Rhino4 (with RhinoCAM 1.0) and generated the following output (shown below as Part (RhinoCAM 1.0_Rhino 4).txt)
    7 Set up the same test cut on the CNC and it worked perfectly as expected from looking at the g-code.

    In both cases I'm running RhinoCAM 4 and 5 on a Pentium 4, g GHz machine running WinXP SP3

    Anyone seen any issues that are remotely like this or have any suggestions as to what may be happening?

    Thank you,
    Steven

    If you cut it to small you can always nail another piece on the end, but if you cut it to big... then what the hell you gonna do?
