Hi all,
not been on for a while. Anyway just trying out Fusion 360 Cam side of things, managed to pocket and adaptive machine, but thought i would try the engrave mode.
Am i right in thinking i will need another POST Process file for this type of operation, i see lathes are having a few issues,
Im running the latest LINUX CNC software and have a Gravograph VX85 ( i think) engraver.
Anway Fusion is creating a working path and looks good, but i keep getting
TextEngraveTest.ngc.failed files.
anyone got any ideas please.
thanks
Mark

I had the some thing a while back, on a mill though.
If I remember correctly i needed to change all the coolant options in the tool library to "none" before it started giving me gcode.
Dont know if you perhaps have the same problem, but might be worth a try.
