Having a problem cutting circles. They don't come out exactly round. There will be a small flat spot on one side. The machine cuts squares within .002".

General Mach Discussion / MDI Screen

Sometimes the MDI screen works for inputs & sometimes it doesnt. How do you activate it?    Also I'm showing +90.0000 but I only have 30" axis. How do I set this so it will show actual inches traveled?

General Mach Discussion / 4 axis on the ToolPath screen

« on: August 04, 2007, 03:01:26 PM »

I'm building a 4 axis machine. All the motors are running properly.
1. On the toolpath screen there is a 4 rather then an "A" why is that?
2. The X axis showes movement of the motor but the 4 axis stays at zero, Shouldnt it read the same as the X axis?

General Mach Discussion / Post processor

« on: July 20, 2007, 01:07:25 PM »

I'm using BobCad & Mach3 as the post processor. When I choose Mach3 it has no place to describe the tool I want to use, only a choice of tool 1 to tool 8. Is there a place in Mach3 to define the diameter of these tools?
