G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Re: Question on coordinate system offsets

« on: November 14, 2020, 01:06:05 AM »

There is more than one way of achieving this type of offset machining and Roger has explained in detail those methods in his .pdf document which you can download from here;  https://www.machsupport.com/forum/index.php?topic=33595.0

Hope this helps.

General Mach Discussion / Re: Incomplete GUI

You are using a very old version of Mach3. The final version can be downloaded from here; https://www.machsupport.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Mach3Version3.043.exe

Just run the install over the top of your existing version but make a backup of your existing Mach3 folder just in case you need to transfer any custom macro's etc.

If your toolpath is displaying the 'crop circles' then change the IJ Mode (Config / General Config).

Ideally all Gcode files using arcs should contain the G90.1 /G91.1 as appropriate.

Hi Öler,

Could you please size your images to 800 x 600 before posting. It makes them much easier to read.
