The FPGA is certainly the lowest cost and simpler solution to go. Withtout an FPGA you will need a PCI chip on the board >> higher integration cost. No experience for PCI design. I think the

One rather simple approach to this would be to adapt the idea of the so-called Kulaga/Mauch DRO card for Mach2. This not-too-complex ISA card uses one (or two) dedicated encoder counter ICs, LS7266R1

Why bother, No arrows, no need to bother, no extra work. Only arrow I have seen in the last 5 years is on an old re-run of Robin Hood. John S.

I like the arrows. Makes it very clear at a glance which direction everthing is going. To change direction, just click on the other side of the arrow. No hoops, no big deal. If clicking the toolpath

This is very true, some programs insist that you have arrows on all the lines to show the way they were drawn and if not in the correct order you then need to jump thru hoops to re organiase the ay

My point is, why all the struggling? We spend endless money on Hardware & tooling but never think about CAM programs! IMO - Just as important to have a decent cam proggy as all the rest of the kit!

Michael, That's great because that used to be a real pain in the neck and lower when bringing autocad files into Smartcam. Don <zen11777@z...> wrote: be

Donald I cannot speak for other CAM packages but with Dolphin it does not make any difference how you draw the lines, Arcs, circles. The DXF Import will construct contiguous contours from the geometry

Without the ability to control, or at least know in the drawing program, which direction the vectors are drawn, it will be very difficult to use compensation

I think the issue here is that he does not have a good CAD?CAM program. I can have a toolpath ready to go for the same part in 10 minutes using Vector as well. His problem is that he has no way to

hi all does anyone know if it is possible to set up m2 for this homing sequence? : 1. start machine 2. start m2 (and hit reset) 3. jog (or with an mdi command, move) the spindle near to the limit

I've just cut a panel in 2.5mm Aluminium containing 2 large rectangular cut outs, 4 small rectangular, 4 round cut outs and drilled 18 3mm holes - whole thing from drawing to maching took less than an

<<You'd need a proper dedicated counter and some way of reading it I guess ... and even then, what do you do if they are in error? All I can see to do with a stepper is abort the program, recovery

The way I expained it to you is the way everyone here explained it to me when I got started....even Art... The real problem with profiling is not the tool diameter compensation, but the tool path

Hello and Huray, its my first post to this group. Great group and all here are fantastic but most of all Art. Now, the offset thread. I thought I would post my thoughts on this. I have been doing WEDM

Thomas, If you are turning any pumps or motors on/off with M commands then I would suggest that you use the charge pump. In the event of a power failure, everything will drop out. The main thing is

One other thing to consider is that the lines in the dxf file will be generated in the ORDER that they appear in the drawing file. The CAM program will pick up the SAME ORDER from the dxf file. So if

if you will walk behind the cutter as it makes its rounds of the part then you will see whether to use g41 or g42 . is the cutter to the right of the line it is cutting ? is the cutter to the left of

You don't have to use the charge pump feature. It is simply an added safety feature. If you are always careful about your switch on and switch off sequence then it is not essential. Les Thomas Powell
