General Mach Discussion / Tool Entry Problems
« on: October 17, 2012, 09:34:24 PM »
Hey Everyone,

Im new here, and relatively new with a CNC. I work at a company where we machine a lot of laminated wood forms. I am exporting the G-code as a text file and running it through Mach3. I am having problems with the entry of the tool into the tooling path. With higher speeds the machine will round off, or cut corners that are supposed to be more pronounced. At slower speeds the machine will remain on the path its supposed to be on. Another example of this "curved" entry happens when the tool is going to plunge into material I am cutting. Rather than going straight down it curves and misses an area that is supposed to be cut. At slower speeds it plunges in correctly and cuts where its supposed to. Am I missing a setting that could get rid of this?

Not sure if I made myself as clear as possible, but any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
M
