Managed to get the G-code file to work after manually deleting the parking comment,
Another thing I have noticed is that my sheetcam hole rule is being ignored, I have it set that the holes will be cut at 65% of the outside contour setting. I check the speed when the holes are being cut and its the same as the outside contour even though I have the sheetcam rules set.
I have attached the G-code to this post.

I am using a post processor posted by John in this thread a while ago,
I have the sheetcam rules set as per this picture,
I will check that file out tomorrow as the machine is cutting at the moment.

I don't see any M67 codes in the file to reduce the feed rate.

OK, I also ran that ngc file with #<pierce-only = 1 and it seemed to work as well, 364 pierces...
EDIT: I just noticed your code says DHTC-OFF, should that be something else? I know nothing about SheetCam

No, DTHC-OFF is telling the controller to turn off the digital torch height control for the hole.
So it must be something in the Post processor that is causing it to not output M67 feed-rate code? Or could it be that it was never set up to do that in the first place. Just thinking about it and all of the parts I have cut up until this point I did not need decent holes so I must not of noticed it.

Sorry I can't help with that, but it may have had something to do with the problem you mentioned about some holes earlier on.
Hopefully Rod or John will chime in.
