    [Fusion 360] Micro pauses around corners and any radius

    Hey guys, this issue has been driving me crazy for awhile now, and I don't know if it can be solved.

    Whenever my machine reaches a corner or any radius, the machine pauses for a micro-second just before the corner/radius, then continues around the corner/radius and moves on.

    Is there a way to keep the machine from doing this? It's causing tool marks on all of my parts.

    Is there a setting in Fusion 360 that I can check to make sure the machine doesn't do this?

    More likely a machine setting. Are you using G61 or G64

    How would I be able to tell which setting the machine is curently using? I was doing some reading on this, and it appears as if G64 would be the way to go, but I'm not sure how to go about using it once the g-code has been loaded.

    What control software are you using? In Mach3, there's a status bar listing the currently active g-codes.

    At the moment, it's set to G64. I did have the setting "Stop CV on angles > 89 degrees" checked, though. I will uncheck that and see how that affects my work from now on.

    The strange thing is, I can remember CV being disabled on angles less than that.

    Turn off CV Distance and CV Feedrate if they are on.

    Yes, all other settings in that section are turned off.

    Ah, I see what you meant now. I was looking at the wrong page. I'll make sure those are off as well.

    Those settings are for different things, but almost as bad as using exact stop mode. Talk about getting the jerk around.

    Ideally, you want the cutter to slow down a bit in high speed machining so you're not putting crazy torque on your machine. Stopping completely is a little much though. You can control the acceleration and deceleration in mach which will override any jerky moves you might program, and fusion also has variables for acceleration and deceleration which can be useful for speeds faster than you're used to..
