Title: I need help with a Mach3 error
Post by: Cav Trooper on December 21, 2018, 06:08:55 PM

I am trying to engrave a circle and I get a radius to end of arc differs from radius to startline 677. I have tried redrawing the circle and I'm using Canvas 8 to draw and CamBam to generate the G codes and tool path. Is there a fix in Mach3?

Hi,
it may be that your CAM program is producing incompatible arc Gcodes for your Mach3 installation.

Double check the IJ mode is set to incremental on the Config/General Config page per the attached.

Thank you, that was it. It runs great.
