Hello all,


I have a problem with my MK3/CNC USB Controller settings. When I try to cut a test file [basically a star] it does not cut the entire shape in one smooth motion. It stops in every corner. In simple shapes it is less of an issue but I tried to cut a tree design where its made of many lines and the plasma torch shakes instead of moving fluidly.

a college suggested I look at the "lookahead" settings. I have messed around with them and tried it ever times and noticed no real change. Here are the settings I am currently using.


Here are my settings file [CNC USB Controller]:

Here is the G-Code I was trying to cut:

If anyone also has suggestions for settings I should change specifically for plasma cutting. Please let me know.

I don't use planetCNC, but it sounds like you are running in exact stop mode and not constant velocity
