Advanced Search

it must run on the same computer as linuxcnc, to find the python libs.

BUT, it's only a proof of concept, do not use it for production systems

You need to change the home search direction for that.

Yes, because whenever I flip it the bed homes in the opposite direction, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but that was the solution i found until now

OK, check what tool it is outputing, several years back i had such an issue with it but on windoze, it would ONLY output tool 6 instead of 1, no matter what i did or change or how many times i reinstalled it...so i installed LinuxCNC.

Hello everyone,

I have a problem where, after changing the diameter or Z offset in the tool table for an active and loaded tool, the values ​​aren't immediately applied. Even if I click the "Apply" button.

I have to explicitly unload the tool and reload it with M6.

Unfortunately, I can't figure out how the Apply button works.



Maybe someone here can help me. Thank you very much.

Andy wants to replace 32 bit  pins with 64 bit pins in 2.10. Some people don't agree with this as it could result in unexpected consequenses (me included). for example I can see it breaking the Ethercat driver.

Re memory storage, its really defined by the CPU byte and register size so there is not any benefit in storing 8 bits. eg. the CPU will load 64 bits at a time into its registers so 8, 16, 32 or 64 bits will all probably take the same amount of storage on a 64 bit system.

thanks Tommy,

Using the same linuxcnc post in sheetcam that i have been using for ages.

yes it works if you use 2 tools one with piercing delay and one with 0 delay.
I'm using the tool from sheetcam (tempoary tool created from file). so i need 2 files or edit the file after pierce and reload.
what I'm thinking is just press a button and make the Pircing delay 0,

In the Sheetcam processor, there are some variables at the top of the file to select between Sheetcam and qtplasmac tools. Sorry about that but had to humor Les at Sheetcam seeing its distributed with his software (and he wrote the post.)!

There is also a script that lets you import a Sheetcam  toolset into qtplasmac
