thats the G-Code generated, i get the error "Bad Character usedLine 1" i've tried to change several things any help is appreciated.
Lathe- CJ9526
Hookup- SyiL
Fairly new to this trying to make a nose cone for a submarine we designed in SolidCam.

anyone??...

Mach will see a few errors in this file - I suggest you comment them out.
For exmple change
:11 (FINALDESIGN.TAP)
to
(:11 FINALDESIGN.TAP)
Others Gcode lines Mach doesn't like are
G99 G97 which occurs twice in the code - change them to (G99 G97) . That is comment them out by putting brackets either side of the Gcode.
I also see from the code that the tool starts and ends a long way away from the cutting area - G0 X150 Z200 - I suggest you change them to G0 X5 Z5 - you'll need to do this twice.
You have also probably used the Fanuc post processor in SolidCam as there isn't one that I'm aware of for Mach3 so you'll have to manually edit the Gcode everytime.
Hope this helps.

I have also noticed that your feed rate at F0.01 is very slow I suggest you change this to someting like F150 - assuming you are woking in mm rather than inches

Hi, Maxwell
There are some Issues in the post your using, Post the dxf if you can.

Hi, Maxwell
Was able to resolve it a bit more, You need to check if they have a post for Mach3.
Hears another pic and a G code for this.

Hello All,
I ran into the same fault codes yesterday.
I managed to generate a G-code with Solidcam after many, many tries.
First I had to find a solution for two fault messages from Solidcam itself. Thanks to CNCzone.com.
As a first solution I deleted the offending lines and Mach3 produced my simple design on my Emco Compact5 CNC lathe.
That worked.
I also encountered the long distance that the tools is set . G0 x150 z200.
Why Sc does this I do not know.
Also the Feed is set at F0.3 , way too slow and I changed that to F100. Exactly fine for my little lathe.
So, there is some more fiddling to be done with Solidcam.
Thanks for all the info.
