I didn't understand well here

the program look this


The panel was 600x600 mm
and sir if possible to tell me how did you do this thnx so much

[Brewmeister]

I used NX. I imported your image as a raster image, scaled it to 600mm wide, then drew lines & curves over the letters. Then I create a solid block, and extruded the lines & curves, subtracting them from the body.
The rest was simple NC machining using a 9mm & 1.5mm tool.
Then I just modified a 3 axis postprocessor to output the format from your example.

It looks like your Xilog system uses left hand rule (+Y points down), thus the reason it's inverted. Now I understand the DY-___ from the Y values. You should be able to do a Find/Replace Y= / Y=DY- if you want to invert them.

Here are all 3 files:

Thank you Brewmeister again for your help, tomorrow I will test in my machine,
can you give me a full name of the software because I want to download this soft.

I have another question,
can you do a simple drawing with NX software?

p.s.
this flag

in the panel 600x600 mm

I will know you for the rezults

thnx

Glad to be of help.
