Hi there, I am in the process of building a filament winding machine to make carbon fiber tubes and need a hand with the Gcode. The programming side for the winding pattern is ok, I just need to understand the Gcode requirements to operate the machine.
My machine is 4 axis
X Carriage travel (meter)
Y Rotation (number of turns)
Z Feed head in and out (mm)
A feed head rotation (deg +/- 90)
The output software gives the Number of turns (Y) required for x length (meter), the feed head position relative to the center of the mandrel and the feed head angle + or - 90Deg
Any help with some simple Gcode to get me going would be really appreciated.
