Compensation for every toolpath?
I'm creating a post-processor and I do need to write the side compensation of the tool on every created toolpath. Right now Qcad/CAM it is writing the compensation only when it is changing the side of the machining. I do have this peace of code: // Tool Compensation LEFT | C=2 this.linearMoveCompens...

Re: CAM output text formatting?
I just changed a post that already exists and smashing my head against the walls because I have no idea about programming.

Re: Material dimensions setup?
Here's a minimalistic example post processor demonstrating how you can add an input field for the thickness in the CAM configuration dialog and then use that value in your header: include("GCodeMM.js"); function MyGCode(cadDocumentInterface, camDocumentInterface) { GCodeMM.call(this, cadDocumentInt...

Re: Material dimensions setup?
My CNC machine needs to have this dimensions in the header Please elaborate 'determination', on what are those values based? I need to say to the machine what is the thickness of the material I am cutting from! And I can't find any way to determine this in Qcad/CAM. I want to cut a board of 18mm th...

Material dimensions setup?
I was searching for a way to determine the material sizes in mm, like x=3050, y=1220, z=18 but I can't find any way to do this. My CNC machine needs to have this dimensions in the header like: It is possible to determine somehow this values?
Code: Select all
H DX=3050 DY=1220 DZ=18

CAM output text formatting?
Hi. I do need to write a new post-processor for a Morbidelli machine and I do need the following output format: I want to change in the post.js (modified from the "EMC2.js") the following line: this.rapidMove = "G0 [X] [Y]"; to have this output: XG0 X=765 Y=5 Z=15.2 V=1500 S=18000 D=10 T=107 C=1 E=1...

Re: Create arcs and circles from tessellated segments
Yes, but Broc didn't select the tesselated ellipse nor the horizontal and vertical segments of the rounded quadrilaterals. Selected segments show faint red in the examples. Ok, but the top-right rounded rectangle looks like it is selected and still it is resulting a full circle which it is incorect...

Re: Create arcs and circles from tessellated segments
Dacicusan, Forgot all about this endeavor. I then also have no files with tessellated segments. I think you have to take a closer look at what is selected in the example of bergdesign. You don't actually select the 'rounded' quadrilaterals, only the tessellated corners. e.g. selecting a square woul...

Re: Layer configuration for CAM?
It is possible to add in a future version of QCAD/CAM Toolpath Templates like the ones from Vcarve https://docs.vectric.com/docs/V10.0/VCa ... -templates

Layer configuration for CAM?
I want to define some layers for automatic CAM generation and I can't find where to do this. Seems that the things has changed and I can't find the "Configuration Options (per layer)" anymore: https://www.ribbonsoft.com/rsforum/download/file.php?id=4083&sid=6e93769a021feeea4fb00ad2a7e1a38f It is pos...
