Hi, I am trying to create G code from lazy cam. Here is the screenshot in Lazycam:


But When I post the code to a file named something.tap and load that in the Mach3 I get the following output. That is only the R from the previous whole word in the Lazy cam. I have tried with various text but similar result. Although simple line drawing seems to work fine.   



Thanks for your help.

Without a Mach3 license, LazyCAM will only give you 25 lines of g-code, I think.

Thanks. It is 500 lines limit. But I am getting abrupt drawing for fewer lines..

Regards

please if some body my help me. Thanks

Skip the LazyCam module and use LazyTurn instead. There are a number of issues with the lathe module in LazyCam, Tool definition in particular.
