Hi Andy, Of course you are right and I don't expext that Axis shows the way the wire travels through the foam.
I try to explain what I think is wrong: The section of the profile is taken from X and Y values in the G coden file also the value for the rulers (shown in red) are correct but the length of the rulers are taken from the U and V values out of the G code file. So the lines of the rulers are to short or to long if their is a difference between X and U or Y and V. As mentioned, it's more somthing like cosmetic. The machine it self works perfectly. By the way: where would be the entry point in the Python code to correct the above mistake or better to extend AXIS, that it can handle foam cutters?

I don't think that AXIS understands hotwire machines at all. It expects the controlled-point to be a point, not a line. -- atp "Torque wrenches are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------- The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
