Hi,
Today we added the G-code class to the program and did a Linuxcnc test. Users only have to press the cam button to see the
output like this. Below the g-code output in a spoiler.
The lead-in is implemented as a kind of macro behind the screen. This makes it able to use a dxf lead in template for users.
Lead in may be a 3d curve for example. The curve only needs a begin point and endpoint, see it as a vector..
Everything looks good. Have to make a link to the cut sequence (keep parts together), no problem.
I want to ask the linux users to comment about the following items :
- who wants to use code snippets? for example : little holes below .. mm slower .. % or for example a lead in path dxf macro?
- g_code parameters like : pierce Z speed, lead in speed (this is maybe a new item), etc. etc.
- special features.. ??
- PlasmaC features or postprocessor features ??
Attached the test g-code output :
Okey we are at a exiting moment with the program now, have a nice day and don't forget to comment about program features.
Another test today :
Showing a example of a pipe flange. Here we show how the triangulation is done to get a solid product with opengl.
With triangulation as a solid view :
Linuxcnc output :
Gcode of pipe flange in spoiler :
Okey i see we can optimize the holes to do a shortest path with keep parts together..
The lead in is nice.. it point's always to the center of the circle.. even when it's a g2.
