Re: dolphin CAM post help processor needed

Post by TomKerekes » Wed Jul 24, 2019 5:22 pm

Hi turbothis,
now that my lathe works with Kmotion cnc i cant use the old mach3 PP because of the incremental thing
what incremental thing? Arc centers?

The post processor helps convert CAD data to GCode. It doesn't really convert GCode.

You might start with a simple example first.

It doesn't look to me like that Post Processor supports Arcs in the XZ plane. Only XY. I see:

#IINC = { ($XCEN-$OLDX):XARC }
#JINC = { ($YCEN-$OLDY):YARC }

for I and J but nothing for K. Also

:XARC = {"I"DDDDD.ddd} {"I"DDD.dddd}
:YARC = {"J"DDDDD.ddd} {"J"DDD.dddd}

for X and Y but not Z.

sorry for the confusion, this is just a hot mess tying it all together

i will punch in X and Z axis info and see what it does....

i think it should be like this....

:XAXIS = {"X"DDDDD.ddd" "} {"X"DDD.dddd" "}
:ZAXIS = {"Z"DDDDD.ddd" "} {"Z"DDD.dddd" "}
:XARC = {"I"DDDDD.ddd" "} {"I"DDD.dddd" "}
:ZARC = {"K"DDDDD.ddd" "} {"K"DDD.dddd" "}

and ....

#I = { $XCEN-$OLD:XARC }
#K = { $ZCEN-$OLD:YARC }

I think

#K = { $ZCEN-$OLD:YARC }

should be

#K = { $ZCEN-$OLD:ZARC }

Looks like $USR11 can be changed to 1to reverse the Arcs

SET $USR11 = 0 ; Set to 1 if Proturn Arcs to be negated (dependant on tool)
