Re: Nodes

Thank you for your reply Les...much appreciated. I've been at this for over 3 years so believe me, I've played with the drawing import settings many times over. Initially I used coreldraw x8, sheetcam and mach3. For over a year now, I've been using coreldraw x8, sheetcam and candcnc. I've had my fai...

Nodes

How's it going? Oh the nodes, nodes, nodes, nodes! There's one thing I hate! All the nodes, nodes….. A little holiday humour. I'm having an issue with all the nodes being added into Sheetcam. I'm using CorelDraw X8. The image is exported as an SVG or DFX into Sheetcam and as you can see bellow a lot...

Re: Drawing Import Issue?

Thank you for your reply! I use CommandCNC...have been using the same version for the past year...just updated to new version tonight hoping it would help...no change. A motor setting within CommandCNC would make sense...I keep thinking its something in the gcode or an acceleration issue. Thoughts? ...

Drawing Import Issue?

Screenshot (258).png Screenshot (259).png Screenshot (260).png Hello! Looking for some help. Had some computer issues a couple of weeks ago and since then, my cut quality has gone down. I use a Starlab, 45xp, CorelDraw x8 and sheetcam. I had to reinstall sheetcam and corel. Now when I'm cutting, th...

Hey Dennis, When you mentioned going back into corel to remove the extra nodes, which nodes are you referring to? In corel, the only nodes in my drawing are the ones that I think are necessary to keep the correct shape. The extra nodes and slight distortions in the file only appear when the file is ...

Good morning Les and Steve, I was just looking at the options in the SVG save dialogue and will research each of them to see if one or more should be changed. Unfortunately I don't see an option to convert curves to arcs - I'm going to continue researching that. Thank you for the heads up about Plas...

Good morning Les, Thank you for the information. After reading your post, I checked my drawing import settings. My arc fitting tolerance was at .004" and minimum segments 4. I've been playing with them - currently they are set at .0006 and 6. My drawing has improved but as you mentioned I've en...

Corel Draw X8 - Sheetcam

I've posted on here about issues I've had and received some really helpful feedback...hoping to get some more. Initially I had been creating and exporting my files as DXF but after much advice I've begun exporting all of my files as SVG - works much better! I'm picky when editing my files in Corel -...

Still a couple of questions...

Hello Dennis and Steve, I have a couple more questions and wonder if you can give me some insight. I am thrilled to finally have the SVG export/import working...major win! In my last post, I mentioned that the sheetcam import of these files has improved tremendously...probably even 90% better. When ...

Thank you Dennis and Steve for taking the time...I've learned alot from your posts. I contacted the person I purchased my plasma table from (he works with all the same software, just an older version of corel). He was able to use remote access to get into my computer. After a couple of hours of seei...

Hi Steve, I have Sheetcam TNG. I received the license and downloaded it late December. I'll try uninstalling and reinstalling it later today if I'm still having issues. I have to wonder though if its coreldraw. I have 2 test files - one is saved as DXF that I'll attach to this post and the other is ...
