Title: 4 axis EDM post, g code example
Post by: lgr on January 23, 2013, 09:41:53 PM

I'm having a post written for a 4 axis edm cam software that I intend to use for a 4 axis hot wire machine. The Mach screen is a 4 axis foam screen with X Y & A B axis does anyone have an example of functional G code for such a screen that I could forward to the programmer ? A simple example maybe a X Y square and a A B circle would be ideal. thanks.

Just a quick update, we can get the machine to perform linear movement in XY and AB and arcs in XY with the I J commands but we can't make arcs work in A B. Anybody have any ideas.
