That was my understanding always but in this case the result is not correct. It is fine for all other operations but not spiral pocket. I re cut the same parts but used contour operation and the result is correct. There seem to be an issue with spiral pockets

You simply put the following lines in the macro file.

In M667.m1s
StartTHC()

and in m666.M1S
EndTHC()

Hi Les I used the finish allowance feature on a spiral pocket cut and found that the allowance caused the an over cut of the same size. It does show correctly on screen but the on the part it comes out wrong. I tried a negative number and that shows up as over cut on the screen but I did not cut a p...

Looks like the display problem is fixed with the new release - Thanks a lot.

The easy way to reset the problem is to activate the plasma option under machine options. Then go and turn the remnant cutoff option off. Turn the plasma option off again and all is fixed.

Then I got the graphic problems and reverted back to 3.1.28 to finish the job. This job file was still the 4.0.10 job file. There is no setting on t...

I will wait for your reply.

Les
I attached the job file. It did the same with several jobs.

When I generate a Gcode file this error occurs. I cannot tell if the file is broken or not and if the issue is critical. Notice that Tool 1 does exist in the tool table.

Hi Les, I have just downloaded the 4.0.10 update for my CAD machine that is not online and have this problem. In this image you can see the layout of all my parts with the nesting tool selected. http://www.mastercut.co.za/files/adhoc/nesting.jpg And then when I select the toolpath tool this happens....

Thanks for the trouble.
