Hi Guys
I build some time ago a 4 axis hotwire cutter with which I cut several wings under Mach3 and with the cutting path coming from a specialised software.
Finally the time has come to cut my fuselage plug in styrofoam. I have designed the beast in solidworks and want to cut in 130x2 2 inch slices.
as you can see from the attachments I will create 130 3D Drafts and want the hotwire to follow the perimeter. While doing the the first intersection thru the body i notice the the line is not continous and where disjunct i cannot add any relation to match the end of the line segments. However how can i proceed to be able to digest these drafts and therefor cutting paths in mach3? I am completely lost on how to move on from here. Basically passing from a dxf to g-code
Thanks everybody for your help.
