That would be awesome. What does the workflow look like, if I use Fusion and sheetcam now, to add some scribing to the parts? Vectric? Seems like a lot $$ for something so simple. Can anyone explain the process of adding scribe to the toolpaths? I don't see an option besides plate marker in sheetcam...

Can anyone explain the process of adding scribe to the toolpaths? I don't see an option besides plate marker in sheetcam, but it just uses m61/62. Maybe an updated post I'm not finding?

Thanks!

Short and to the point hopefully it's an easy fix.

Have you ever thought to have a probing cycle with the ohmic to set x and y zero? That would be slick.

Dug deeper into the float switch issue today. It showed up on 5.05 beta and 5.05 beta R1. When the Ohmic is tripped (closed) and it does a touch off using the float switch it doesn't add the right offset to the Z height, causing the nozzle to drag when it tries to cut. If the Ohmic stays open and yo...

Thanks Joey, Beta build seems to work without a hitch. Safe height after a touch-off always returned to what it was supposed to be through 20 ish parts with THC enabled. I did not add the custom macro you wrote, wanted to test the build as it was before changing anything else. I need to work on the ...

Must have hit submit before the file finished uploading

Fresh Report with plot. Fired up the machine, homed it, safe height set to .500". Did a torch touch off, it retracted to .500" in the WCO DRO. Cut a 2x24" rectangle out of .090" aluminum, cut went great THC working fine. After the cut I did another torch touch off and it retracte...

I'll try and get a fresh report this evening, with plot turned on. THC Affecting Z Machine coordinates and soft limits will be Addressed in the Next Build. Your Calibration Plots Looked good from the First Report you posted. I could not find a calibration report in the latest report. I Think in only...

I spoke too soon, finally had time today to try and run some proper parts. It won't cut for more than a few minutes with THC enabled until the Z machine coordinates start to walk again. Have to shut the entire machine down and reboot and re-home in-between parts. Still on 5.02 and didn't yet try the...

We are having the same issue with the Z position doing wierd things when THC is active. It was worse with soft limits enabled on the Z but still does it without the limits... Definitely not losing steps or have a coupler slipping. With the safe height set to .5" after a few cuts you do a touch ...
