Hello to all, I am tring to get gcode out of bobcad that Kcam will understand. Have tried all the machines in the configuration but nothing seems to work. they all come out in Kcam all over the place. How do you setup bobcad so it will produce code that Kcam will understand? TIA Prboz  |

| There are a couple of setting to look at in the post processor:- - the type of arc center coordinates (absolute or incremental). - whether the controller is set to run G90 (absolute) or G91 (excremental) coordinates  Getting these set correctly will make a huge difference in the way the same set of gcode commands will run.
