New to CNC and Mach 3 with ???'s

[ripper7777777]

Well I'm looking at the Rockcliff plans and the Mach software. My friend runs a signshop with a Gerber router and I'm a sign maker with gerber omega, I'm wondering if I'll be able to import my gerber files into Mach 3 to route out on the Rockcliff. I'd like to eventually upgrade so I can route aluminum but at the moment if I could cut lexan up to a 1/4" thick I'd be very happy.

Thanks for any help.


I forgot to mention the files are .plt but I can export to .ai, .eps, .dxf I can also supply a file if someone is willing to try and import it.

Hi Rip, what’s up? Small world, afraid I’m not much help but if you email me a file you want to try/convert I can play around with it as I experiment with my own projects.

Hey lbrc, sure I'll get a file together in few formats and shoot it over.

Got it, use LazyCam (comes with registration) to import and convert .dxf files.

Well I read it can also import hpgl from corel so if can do that I'm sure I can get gerber into it.

Thanks for the help, be prepared I'm sure I'll be hitting you up for info.....lol
