help needed on fusion 360 and g code

[terry1956]

Hi.so the fault is something between the way the g code is written by fusion360 and the way mach 3 reads it. Ok but what is the fix?..

In the post processor option, use the linuxcnc option. Cannot remember off the top of my head how it is described.

Are you confident that you have the CAM model set up correctly? I can take a look for you if it helps. PM me your email and I will give you directions on how to do this.

Hi Terry,

I am just trying to understand what problem you are having. I put it into NC Corrector to try and visualise your g-code (I am just leaning g-code so this is a bit new to me).

What position are you starting from (xyz?) and when you home the machine where does it go (xyz)?

Line 5 (G28 (return home) G91 (Incremental distance mode) Z0). I guess this means it will home the X and Y axis but leave the Z same position?

So what is mach3 doing?

Cheers,

Jim
