I loaded an old job and now every job I've created since has this issue. After a tool change SheetCam inserts a Z move then starts the spindle, then goes to the X,Y coordinate. So it winds up going to a random X,Y on that first move. Sometimes the spindle is barely on before the first cut. I do not have the Parking or Tool Change options set under Job Options.


I'm running version 6.0.1 if that matters.


Here is a code snippet. See the inserted G00 on line 120.


N0010 (Filename: Angle Plate Plate.tap)
N0020 (Post processor: Mach3.scpost)
N0030 (Date:08/02/2015 Time:09:47:23)
N0040 G20 (Units: Inches)
N0050 G40 G90 G91.1
N0060 F1
N0070 (Part: Angle Plate Plate)
N0080 (Operation: Drill, .250 Holes, T101: 90 Degree Spotting Drill, 0.375 in diameter, 0.135 in Deep)
N0090 S4500 (90 Degree Spotting Drill, 0.375 in diameter)
N0100 T101 M06
N0110 G43 H101
N0120 G00 Z1.2500
N0130 M07 (Mist coolant on)
N0140 S4500 M03
N0150 X4.0000 Y0.5000

N0160 Z0.0300






Any suggestions?


Thanks,




Chris

I read thru your post, and I may have an idea. It looks like you are doing a machining operation, using the Mach3.scpost. I was just wondering if you were originally using a post set up for your particular machine, and then the post got changed to the generic Mach3 post.

That's all I got for now, Steve
