Hello everyone
I am using the Mach ver 2.4 If I clean up a part in LC every thing looks right and post it to Mach I get Z axis move in the middle of the part cutting it stops moves the Z axis up back down and waits for the cycle start button witch is alright but the z axis move should not be there any one els had that problem

Is it in your code to move the z? If not, check your safe z settings. Also, post your code with a note of where you think it is going wrong.

Hi
Here is the file if you look at the file I spaced the code in the file that should not be there and it is in the code I did delete some cod in the file so it is not that big it move the z axis up and down with no X and Y movement between the up an down

you might check your drawing that you created the g-code from and see if there is a break in the line at that location (open vector), that would cause it to lift up in z and move from y14.9966 to y 14.9967 as in your code

Hi
I created the G code in LC every thing looks good in LC

I don't use LC but does it have an option to check for open vectors?
Due to the short movement in your code I suspect you have an open vector, enough to give you a z movement.
If you want to post the dxf drawing or email it to me I'll look at it for you.

Hi
Here is the DXF file let me know what you found out

I found no open vectors in your drawing, they were all fine.
Maybe someone that works with LC can help you. Try rotating or moving the vectors and generating the g-code again and see if that helps

It would be nice if Art or Brain would see the problem . As of rotate the part that is a no no because the part is nested on a sheet to save matrial
