Missing chain in G-code
« on: June 03, 2009, 04:46:24 PM »
Hello,

This is my first experience with lazy cam. I'm trying to get a simple DXF (created in illustrator) into gcode. Everything looks great in LazyCam, but it only sends a few of the chains to Mach3. Any suggestions?

Hi Chip!

I have a similar problem as ojibberish. I wrote a simple text ("ShopZ.hu") in CorelDraw11. I export the file as .dxf. I import the file in LazyCam. The LazyCam recognize it, I see the text in the program. But when I want to make the G-Code the LazyCam doesn't make the whole G-Code of the "Shopz.hu".

I am using Windows XP Professional, SP3; CorelDraw11.633; LazyCam 3.00.2; Mach3 Demo Version R3.042.020.

I attach the dxf file and the wrong tap file; please, have a look at it.

What could be the solution? Should I reinstall the LazyCam and the Mac3?

Thank You:
Zoltan Szabo.

ROCKO86,
See the attached file. Just a quick and dirty for the steps I did from beginning to end.

Hey Guys!
It works fine! Thank you very-very much!

Of course, the demo version only handle the first 500 lines, but right now it is enough for testing. If everything works fine, I promise that I will buy a full license. ;)

Thank you again, keep up the good work!
