General Mach Discussion / Re: "Sharp Corners" rounded

Thanks Tweaky,

It ended up being total user error.  I had recently changed the post processor that snuck the G64 into the invocation section that you mentioned.  It being modal caused the same issues with g-code files that I didn't have issues with before, which is why I was puzzled.

Anyway, I removed the G64 reference in my postprocessor so the Mach setting is in control, and all is well.

Thanks for leading me down the right path.

General Mach Discussion / "Sharp Corners" rounded

« on: June 25, 2023, 09:13:23 PM »

Hello,

Any thoughts on what might cause corners to be rounded on a simple square profile cut?  The GCODE below was my test case.  The MACH toolpath display shows the square profile roughing toolpath and the actual path traversed shows rounded corners.

THoughts?
