Need Help!- Slot cutting ramp in and out Help

[trivette]

I have a taig cnc mill and I am trying to cut some slots/splines and a round shaft. I have mach 3 with wizards it does the ramp in but no ramp out I would like to be able to ramp out at same angle as the ramp in to give a uniform look. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks again

I've never used mach 3 so can't help you there but it's pretty easy to do it if you just write a program manually in g-code.

Can you show me an example?

you don't give any sizes to show exactly what you're doing.
it may be easier if you post some of your existing program and someone can modify it

this is first few passes it ramps in and I need it to ramp out also

its pretty simple. just work out the difference between the start point in X and the ramp-in point in X and then add that to the X end point and feed up to the same Z point where you started.

I assume this is what you want? I can't tell if X3.6908 would over-cut into your part because I don't have sizes/drawing/better info.
Maybe you want to ramp up to the X3.5 point? So in that case you would start ramping up before X3.5 like this....

X3.3092 (3.5 - 0.1908)

A few sizes or simple sketch would help and I could write you a complete working program.

If I were doing a square slot using ramping I would do something like this....
