FAQs / straight corners in rhino and mach3 but radiused when I machine. Help!
« on: September 12, 2009, 08:46:12 PM »
I just switched over from using a shopbot control box to a Gecko g540 set of drivers.
Right now the software I am using is Rhino 4.0 SR6 build 09/07/09 , Madcam 4.1 build 09/08/28 and Mach3 version 3.042.029.
I am post processing with MACH-3-INCH.TXT. This is my first experience with using Mach 3.
My problem is that at every square corner I am getting a tapered radius about 1/2 by 1/8" long .
This happens on every corner as the cutter approaches the corner.
This does not show up on the rhino drawing or the cut simulator in madcam , nor the simulator in mach 3 but is there on every piece I cut .
Any body have a clue what might be the cause of this. Here is the g code
