Pause auf Z0

Post by jensn »

Hi,

I wonder, how I can change my Cut2D prostprozessor for the following feature:

- after going to /0 I would like to have a pause of around 200ms before I start the actual cut.
- the reason for that is, that I broke a lot of tiny engraver when I cut 3mm CFK plates.

Any suggestions, how I can do this?

hi jens

greeting on the forum

you can edit postprocessor and it will place delay in gcode... but in your case more helpful to keep the z speed slow so your bit will get the force gradually...

in cut2d your option is slow down the z movement... in toolsettings you need to set the z speed, (plunge) down as low as your bit can take the stress.. (example a 30-100 mm/min might works)

in vcarve you can set ramping what makes you keeping z plunge on high speed...

for final solution you can set ramp in gode...
