That is why I decided to just edit the M3 and M5 macros…super easy and work just fine… My main focus at the moment is to get the plasma ready from its physical stuff, before I see into other software… which I am 100% sure that are better than Fusion 360 for generating Gcode and for settings… I mean even for the few tests and cuttings that I have made, I found that fusion is dry and very very basic for plasma.Īlso, fusion does not have a post processor for mach3 plasma… I had to find one over the internet which someone edited, but this still needed further editing. I built my CNC mill 3 years ago, and now I am in the process of finishing my cnc plasma table. In fact I did download the demo and had a look at it (some time ago)… the thing is, as I have already told I am more of a cnc milling guy (and what else to use if not fusion ehh!!). Well don’t paint a bad picture HAHA… its not that I did not care about sheet cam. My advice would be to switch to SheetCam, but Dimetri didn’t care so much for that suggestion So, after this long winded intro, can someone advise how to modify the settings in Fusion? UseG0: true // toggle between using G0 or G1 with a highFeedrate for rapid movementsīut it would seem that these must be settable within Fusion itself, rather than requiring modifying the post. PierceHeight: 0, // specifies the pierce height UseZAxis: false, // specifies to enable the output for Z coordinates <= MAKE TRUE ProbeOffset: 0, // specifies the offset for G31 probing <= SET ACCORDING TO FIXTURE PierceDelay: 1, // specifies the delay to pierce in seconds SeparateWordsWithSpace: true, // specifies that the words should be separated with a white space SequenceNumberIncrement: 5, // increment for sequence numbers
SequenceNumberStart: 10, // first sequence number ShowSequenceNumbers: true, // show sequence numbers It’s just that the configuration settings don’t enable it. I took a look at the Fusion 360 post that is in the CrossFire downloads section and, if I’m reading the code correctly, it already has, what seems to be, the proper code already. However, in discussions with he only uses Fusion 360 (poor man…) and didn’t know how to modify the post processor to add these feechurs.
I use SheetCam only on my system with THC and have modified the SheetCam post processor to provide the necessary probing, compensation, and ‘plunge’ to Cut height from Pierce height.
