Scan correction

Post by Tom Ranger »

Hi, there
can anyone tell me whether there is something comparable to the "scan correction" in other laser software Software? I'm having trouble when using the Laser Picture toolpath. I am using a 45 degree raster angle. It ends up that the end of the line from the upward scan does not align with the beginning of the following downward scan. other laser software offers some adjustment to minimize the offset. Looking for the same settings here in VCarve Desktop with the Laser module.
Regards,
Tom

Tom, is there maybe some "skew" in the way your laser is mounted? Just guessing!

I'm not aware of any extra adjustments that are available, but I don't use the Vectric picture functions. I don't think the Laser Module is fully developed as of now, anyway.
