    Hi Michael
    Welcome to the forum.
    I don't have a machine but have been lurking in the background for a couple of years, have a look @ fusion 360, a lot of the members use this software it does CAD/CAM and if you go over to u tube there are lots of instructional videos.
    Enjoy the forum.
    Regards
    Mike

    Hi Michael,
    So if I understand correctly, this is a two stage solution required.
    1: to get some confidence that the machine is doing what your file says to do.
    2: Do virtual cuts to confirm that the code is all there.

    Can I ask do you have Mach configured? ie set the steps/distance?
    Have you selected the correct Post Processor in Fusion?
    Is it possible to have a little more info on " it shows on the program sim it does not do with the machine for some reason"


    My first cut on any machine is a straight line. Check that the slot width is what the cutter dimensions are.
    Next cut is a 3-4-5 triangle. This is a tell all test.

    A comment on the proxon .. double check your cutter speeds and feeds! and COOLANT! .
    Regards

    Paul
