I did that and ran into another problem I am not sure how to get around. If the vector angle exceeds a certain value (20 degrees in this case), a head lift and knife rotation is introduced, but X/Y do not move. So I am getting the error "Length of cutter compensation entry move is not greater than the tool radius". This is discovered in the look ahead, so it threw me for a moment.
Any bright ideas on how to get around this? Thanks, Eric On June 30, 2016 9:14:13 AM EDT, andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com> wrote: >On 30 June 2016 at 13:26, Eric H.
