Hi, need some expert help on engraving traffolyte!
We have a small desk top cnc router, gantry type. We are running Mach3, CAMBAM, and design in AutoCad.
The main use for the CNC is to produce Traffolyte front labels for control panels.
Everything works well except we seem to have pretty bad results when it comes text.
The size of text that we are trying to use are 5-6mm. I have tried micro end mills, v-cutters, i have tried different free stick fonts types, i have tried Stickfont v1.1, CamBam fonts, I am aware that most fonts availible are not single line. I am also considering do we need a floating head spindle arangement, to eliminate any differences in bed.
What I am hoping is that some kind person could give me a few pointers in the right direction, ie font type (nothing fancy, these are electrical control panels, and we are happy to purchase the right font), the tool type, machine setup (spindle speed, depth, speed etc)
Many Thanks in advance
Spence
