Please i am in serious need of help with my Burny 2.5 Plus CNC Plasma amchine,
I have sheetcam that i am pathing parts in but when i transfer the file to the machine via link through the RS232 cable that is connected. It accepts the file but the part it runs looks nothing like what i have nested. It keeps trying to cut circles after the first part and if i nest a part with holes it oversizes the holes and doesnt complete the part. This also happens if i have more than 1 part nested then the first part will cut but the second part it tries to cut it out as if it is a large circle.
I need help with this please as i have checked the G-code going to the machine and it is all correct but this is happening everytime now and i have massive worked waiting for the machine and i cannot do anything with it as it wants to cut circles all the time.
Also meant to add. If i program a part directly on the machine i have no problems at all but need to start running non standards part that are not repeated and i am having to cut them all individually. and nothing can have a hole in or else it tries to scale that hole 12 times bigger than what it should be.
To Les’ point-
a) what post processor are you using? If you’ve modified it, please upload (post) a copy of it here.
b) what version of sheetcam ?
b) did the post processor, sheetcam version, and DNC connection all work at some point prior to this now failing situation ? If so, what changed ? Nesting ? Please explain.
I sat playing yesterday in the settings and found the M04 & M03 Firing option in sheetcam on the Burny 2.5 ABS post processor option was giving a Kerf error.
I swopped to the start Post processor and Edited the M07 & M08 firing option to M04 & M03 and also changed Kerf values on sheetcam and the machine is running now properly.
