    mach3 (?) - machine doesn’t finish the cut as it suppos to

    Hi
    I am using sige x2 converted mill with mach 3
    I have tried to engrave letters and logo on dual colored plastic.
    And I have noticed that the machine doesn’t finish the cut as it suppos to do.

    As you can see form the screen picture , the letters have 90 degrees angels on the corners but the cnc is cutting it with a "short cut " to the next points.





    The same is happening on the Z axis and it doesn’t finish the letters (or the logo).
    I have tried to generate the code with the Lazycam and solidcam and the results are the same.
    Any suggestion?

    ThanksAmnon

    I got an answer on the MACH3 support site:
    Add g61 to your GCODE and delete G64

    and ,as you can see ,it worked perfect!
