need some help.

To get back to your original request, I drew a small oval given the sizes you specified

Any small shape would do a oval around 40mmx10mm 3mm deep would be good

The dxf was then put into Cambam and this is the resulting code :-

0,0 would be set right in the centre of the oval, and Z0 would be the top of your part, it is set to go down at .5 depth of cut, so for a total depth of 3mm, should go around 6 times.
Give it a try and see if it works?

It might be better to attach the file rather than post the code as you can see it takes a lot of space

Doh !!! never thought about that, sorted now

Terry think you miss understand what G54 does. All it does is specify the Work offset in relation to Absolute Machine Zero ie Machine home.

The fact it's not in the code isn't the reason going all over the place. Mach will default to G54 so unless you've changed it ie: with G55. G56 etc then won't make any difference if not in the Code.

Also the code is messed up in few places and looks like your using the letter O rather than Zero in places.

Second line GO25.0000 is invalid because doesn't state axis.

Also G0 and G1 commands are Modal so don't need to be repeated unless changed. ie:
g0 x10
y10
x50
G1 y60 F500
x40
y30
x68 y78

When you imported into Artcam did you use Mach3 Post.?
