LazyCam (Beta) / Lazy Cam not cutting all lines???

« on: November 13, 2006, 02:09:37 PM »

I am running Mach III 2.0.009  with LazyCam   I have two problems.

It dose not cut all of the lines in the file. It looks like it dose not add the M Code to turn on the laser just in two spots. The other problem is that it will not add the Coolant on M code I am running in laser mode.  Any ideas?


Thanks
Gary

General Mach Discussion / Round Corners Motor tuening?

« on: November 12, 2006, 12:06:41 PM »

I have a laser running the latest version of Mach III .   I have a velocity of 600 and an acceleration of around 80 on the Y and 100 on the X. The x has more weight to move and stop. I would like to cut around 300 - 400  ipm.  but I get rounding on the connors. I also have problems with small moves that have direction change. Like a rectangle .080 x 1"  the corners angle out.  If anyone has any ides let me know.  I have 800 steps per inch I tried 1600 but 800 looked better. If I get ou of CV mode it's maks nice conors but is very slow.

Thanks
