Hello,
I searched and couldn't find anything about this. I'm using a buddy's Rhinocam to generate gcode for my machine running mach3. It's Rhinocam Pro 2.0.4.
I have various MOPs in the single file for machining a guitar body. The simulations and everything look great in Rhinocam, but when I open the resulting Gcode in Mach3, I can see a big circle that runs through the part. I found this out after machining the part, and having it ruin the part.
I've attached an image from mach3 showing the circle. This doesn't apear in any of the toolpaths in Rhinocam. It's during the inital horizontal roughing operation. Here is a section of the gcode, with the bolded line being the culprit:
X2.4273Y6.0226I0.8044J-0.2479
G01 Z1.5904
G00 Z2.0000
X16.1006 Y9.6531
G01 Z1.6404 F30.0
Z1.6154 F50.0
G19
G03X15.8321Y9.7421Z1.5654J-1.0577K-0.0202 F50.0
G17
G02X16.3582Y9.8080I0.4091J-1.1318 F70.0
X16.7370Y9.5287I-0.1039J-0.5374
X16.7106Y9.3160I-0.3410J-0.0657
If I delete that line from the file, the circle disappears. Has anybody experienced this before?
Hopefully someone knows what I need to adjust to make sure rhinocam doesn't output any weird stuff like this. I looked in the post settings, and don't really know what might need to be changed. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Bobby
