I make the part, and the tool path in fusion looks appropriate, but when I load the g-code into Mach 3, only a small part of it shows, like part of a letter, and it will only cut that too. I thought it may be because I’m using the free version of Mach 3 but not sure. It’s a small sign with 7 letters in a stencil don’t.
Im having the same problem. If it was a license problem I feel like more people would have asked this question. My tool path works perfect in Fusion then only about half shows up in Mach 3.
If you open the editor in post processing, you can scroll and see all the lines of code. Was an eye opener for me to see how a very small project could equal a few thousand lines of code
Well, I may be having the same problem. I just went through my first setup for a simple “WELDING SHOP” sign off of Fireshare. The simulation looks good in Fusion, but I only get “DING” when I load the code into Mach 3. Is this really the line code limit of the basic Mach3 software?
It sure is. In 500 lines with judicious code, you can certainly test your setup. It’s not a ‘basic’ version, it is a ‘demo’ version so you can test it to see if it works with your system. You want to make something you have to actually pay for the software…
