Title: Bobcad. Simulation Fine Changes in Mach 3 not 4
Post by: Darb on April 30, 2016, 10:26:27 PM

 Hi. I Have 2 Computers:

 Bobcad v 27
 Mach 3
 
Bobcad v 27
Mach 4

 Looking for help.  The simulation of the part in Bobcad is perfect. After Posting in Mach 3, it adds a bunch of different size circles to the actual output that are not in the drawing. These actually go through my part.

Only when doing the outer profile, it follows the correct profile(CCW)..then stops..goes off the profile.. and does a complete circle (CW).. Not in the drawing.

 The same post runs fine In Mach 4. it even shows the same action on the same line in Mach 3 and 4.... Weird.

G02 X0.5123 Y1.7929 I0.176 J0.1655

Would like to figure this one out. Not sure where to start.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Change your IJ mode in Mach3 to Incremental.
