I just retested and here are the results.

CV turned on,  stop CV on angles >89 on, CV distance tolerance .005 on,

clockwise 3 passes, I get square corners, 1 pass counter clockwise great corners,

Here is the problem,

I cut and oval and a square, the oval cuts really choppy but the square is good.

So I changed the settings to this

CV turned on, stop CV on angles>89 on, CV distance tolerance 5 on.

3 cw passes on the square great corners, oval cuts smooth, 1 pass ccw pass on the square rounded corners.

Strange!

Tweakie,

The corners look like the machine is trying to skip out on cutting all the way to the end of the line.

Stirling,

It is version R3.042.020

My machine is a gantry type router, I am trying to cut cabinets with a 5 mm bit in .75 material,  3 passes climb cut and 1 pass conventional to realease the part.  Corners look great for the 3 clockwise passes but on the final pass counterclockwise the corners get misshaped or rounded.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

I am having some difficulty with my cv settings.  I have cv on and stop cv on 90 angles.  I am getting square corners if I cut clockwise but rounded corners cutting counterclockwise.  What am I missing?

Thanks
