Apologies for posting
this problem again, but I was not getting much response in the Mastercam forum. I want to open this question up in a general sense.
Basically, I am using Mastercam and it is generating a bunch of tiny linear moves to resolve arcs. I think this is messing up the finish on my parts because my TM-1 shakes around theses "linear equivalents" to arcs and the effective feedrate goes way down (while the control says it is the same).
It seems to me that the post should be generating circular interpolation commands. But I don't know for sure - I don't have enough experience in CNC/CAM.
Is this G-Code output consisting of only linear moves and the resulting machine behavior normal?
Thanks.
Btw, in these photos the pockets did have a finishing pass while the corner profile did not.
