Hello recently I have a workbee for plasma cutting, with openbuilds control and cam I opened a clean dxf file a realization with 126 holes of all shapes when I generate the code there is a multitude of lines in all directions. Not too logical and the starting points of all lengths set to 4mm and red lines that cross. Cam and 'its limit? Or I made programming errors, Thanks for your help
For full control over ordering, create seperate toolaths. (takes a few seconds more set up time than a Select All, but saves cut time) CAM follows the order the entities appear in the file, as well as the order the points inside the vector its given is already is ordered. Fancier CAM softwares of course has algorithms to optimise it for you
Hello and happy new year, I will come back to you, I did with less distance and I always have starts of all lengths, I have another problem on the workbee I have a floating Z when I create the gcode with the Z0 a trajectory, but the Z rises more to change parts if I, put the Z4 so that it rises the trajectories are double, I am in the position with touch off. I manage to cut I'm afraid of collision with each change of parts, I can't find the errors that I had to make THANKS for everything.
Hello i tried everything looked at everything and every time plasma click touch off zero( yes) the drawing always splits I opened openbuilds cam with Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome it doesn't change anything, there is a software problem i don't have to not be the only one having this kind of concern.
You mean the geometry moving around when you create gcode? That indicates some problem with the input file. See docs:software:file-errors [OpenBuilds Documentation]
Works fine for me: OBC file attached (File, Import Workspace to open it inside CAM) - EXTRA: I created the tiny holes as INSIDE cuts, flower shape as OUTSIDE cuts (as I assume you want to small circle as a hole, thus INSIDE cut)
Don't use G92. The touchoff sequences is JUST a probe. DO NOT SET any positions, CAM sets that for you using the correct G10 commands
Thats the point of a lead-in, to avoid the pierce mark on your cut edge. If its an inside cut, we pierce inside the waste cutout. How long it is, doesn't really matter, that is a waste piece
It's all the interior cuts that I have this concern if I don't move away from the starting point it makes a mark, give me an example.
@calou and @Dennis Langhoff and @IanCaz , i've pushed some testing code that may help - sorting the lead-in paths offset vector to find the point closest to the actual starting point of the cut vector, and injecting that point directly in front. Give it some testing and let me know if it improved the situation for you. Remember to force-refresh your browser to get the latest code running (Ctrl+F5, Shift+F5)
