Re: Machine Alternatives Question

I also have an everlast 80, and I also love centroid products ( I have a mill and lathe with acorns). I was wondering if one could take the everlasting raw voltage (bypass it's noisy divider) and pass it through a good quality voltage divider/filter such as this one: https://www.poscope.com/product/...

more than 6 WCS locations without upgrading

Hi Folks. I have the cnc12 pro version, and it only give me 6 WCS locations. If I want more, I have to upgrade to the Acorn Digitizing Bundle. I don't need all the extra features, I just need a few more WCS. It's a lot of money to spend just for that. Is there a work around to have more WCS without ...

Re: fusion 360 pp and conversational programming

You don’t change the post processor for your tool/turret position. You enter the right turret number (102)
When you define the tool itself in the tool library, under the last tab (post processor), right below the tool number.

Re: Tool offsets change after restart

Well, no need for a report, huham. I did solve my problem. Above someone says "you wouldn't embarrass yourself, report it so others can learn" I said my home switches are reliable, and true they are. But if a screw came loose and the witch got moved by a Gremlin, a reliable switch becomes ...

Re: Fusion 360 Mill Post Processor for Acorn with additional Features (New Version 5)

Hi swissi, the centroid turn post is for the lathe, in short, I was hoping one could find a lathe post as good and with the same features as the "mill swissi" one. I overlooked the word "Turn". If you just want to enable alphanumeric file names, this is a very simple change. Jus...

Re: Fusion 360 Mill Post Processor for Acorn with additional Features (New Version 5)

Fabulus, Thanks Swissi, I'll check it out.
Would it be difficult to port some of these features (like using letters instead of program numbers) to the default centroid turn post processor in the fusion's library? I'm scared of trying to program a new post myself.

anyone using a gang lathe? (front&rear orientation)

I'm having problems with the front/rear tool approach settings in cnc12 4.5 (and beta 4.58). I've read a few posts on the subject as others have the same problem. viewtopic.php?f=60&t=4823&p=42558#p42558 It might be a bug that I reported on the beta 4.58 thread. But I think I'm missing somet...
