Re: Scanything camera recommendations - GoPro??

Re: Illustrator Files not importing correctly.
When you import the SVG file a box appears with a bunch of options. Is the pixel size set to 96DPI? If so, try changing it to 90.

Re: postprosser not working for me
Unfortunately quite a few download links broke when I upgraded to PHPBB3 some years ago back. It took a bit of hunting though backups but I think this may be the file you want.

Re: Scanything License
The saving issue could be a problem with your license. What does it say in Help->about?
For the calibration, make sure you have the display set to 'Mask' or 'Mixed'. Is the dot flickering or breaking up? If so, try experimenting with the brightness slider.

Re: Error code-Layer not found
This is because you are using different layer names in your drawing than the cut operation was last set up to use. Simply drop down the layer selection list box and select the layer you want to cut.

Re: Layers and Operations
Leave everything on one layer and do an 'outside offset' jet cutting operation. In your cut operation go to the 'cut path' tab and make sure optimisation is set to 'auto' and 'Cutting rules' are set to 'keep parts together'. SheetCam will automatically reverse the cut side for the inside of your par...

Re: Selecting Cut order
SheetCam figures it out for you and automatically reverses the cut side for inside contours.

Re: Problems with working under different operating systems
Sometimes OnRapid can be called when X,Y,Z,A axes have not changed or have only changed by a tiny amount. In that case it will just output "G0". On the next call to OnRapid, it knows that G0 is active so it does not output G0 again.

Re: Where are predefined variables set?
Looking at that post, the height of the surface of the pipe is passed to the touch-off subroutine. Your touch-off subroutine needs to set the current Z position based on that value.

Re: tool paths arent generating correctly
I had a quick look at the code and cannot see anything obviously wrong. Does the Langmuir controller have an option to pre-pierce your parts? If so it could be that you have that turned on.

Re: Sheetcam file not showing the same on the plasma
If the file cut correctly before the gearbox change it must be an issue with your machine. I have to admit I can't think of any obvious reason for it to do that.
