choppy G01 moves instead of smooth G02 and G03

Jay,

Just looking at the positions in Predator, the code seems to be running OK, without it being choppy in Predator. Try that new post with an arc fit tolerance of .005 and a machining tolerance of .0005 and stepover over .5 or less and see how it works with the new post outputting the correct arc plane. That may have been the issue possibly the entire time.

still outputting a bunch of straight lines where it should be arcs... ive attached an update of what i have done. you can see them when you run simulation.

unfortunately i dont have a digital copy of the g-code list that i can supply you. we did send one to you when we had our post built. this will have to do for now as i cannot spend any more time on this job.

is there a reason that the Lace angle could not be changed to 90 and it would be just long lines side stepped?

Jay,

Can you pm me your customer ID?

not really no, my boss asked me to have it cut this way specifically because he likes the way it looks better lol, im just doing what i am told, he signs the checks.

I'll have to see if i can dig it up, pretty busy at the moment..

thank you both for the effort, probably wont hear from me until the new year now. Happy holidays!

Jay,

Just shoot it to me when you get a chance. I hope you have a merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Was there a resolution to this issue? I am seeing the same thing, a bunch of G01 commands instead of G03 with a center part.
I am cutting a variable radius on a cylinder, should just be a bunch of arcs at different depths. Is there a way to tell BobCad " just make them arcs" ?
