    G code SolidCam problem

    I learn SolidCam to generate g codes of turn operations, however solidcam always generate g codes with double diameter of the design.

    Any know the reason of this problem.

    Regards

    It is the way your post processor is set up. Some lathe controls are programmed using the diameter value rather than the radius and it appears your post set up for that. Talk to your reseller or have a go at editing your GPP file.

    Than You Brakeman. I change X mode in Mach3, Config-Ports and Pins-Turn Options.
