Hi. I am using rotating Plasma and I am having this problem in the visualization of the work in the window of Mach3, the dimensions in visualization increase every time I take the reference of the probe of the Z axis for the reason of the G92 but in reality when short the machine at its correct height only affects the display in the mach3 window, the Post Processor that I am using is PlasmaRotary Mach3 and tried to modify it by G92.1 and G92.2 and the display in the Mach3 window is modified but the problem is that the plasma torch really does not stay at the correct height as it should when it is generated with the G92.
How could this problem be solved?
Any help to solve this problem
The changes in height are because Mach doesn’t know what to do with the probing cycle. It looks like you have your rotary axis defined in Mach as rotary. You must define it as linear. Rotary mode does odd things when you rotate further than 360 degrees. The display will look completely wrong but there is not much you can do about that.
That looks correct. Don’t rely too much on the display. Check if the movements are correct, rather than worrying about the display.
Thank you very much for your help .
I think that the postprocessor generates the G code from the center of the profile and the G92 of the postprocessor discounts it, it could somehow include this G92 in a Macro so that mach3 when opening the G Code and in general configuration of mach3 is configured to ignore M when loading the G code?
In this way I think that in the mach3 window it would look good and if you have a stop or any problem it would be fine and to be able to identify the work path in the mach3 window.
You could probably do that. I didn’t do it in the standard post because it adds complexity. It is complicated enough to get rotary working so I like to keep it as simple as possible.
Gracias
