Re: Mach2

Hi Tom
I have selected Mach2Mill and various other ones but with no luck. If I run the code in a demo version of Mach3 it runs ok. I will have a go at editing the G code as you suggest.?

I know nothing about Mach2, but the Fusion 360 posts are infinitely?editable, either with Visual Studio Code or even Notepad++, so if you can determine which line of gcode is causing the program to stop, maybe you or someone can edit the post.

I'm assuming, of course, that you're using the best Fusion 360 post? There is one called Mach2Mill here:



Maybe try the Mach3 post?

Please can I ask for guidance with a newly aquired CNC mill, which is running on Mach2 and has done for many years. I am unable to generate G code using Fusion360 CAM, that Mach2 will work with, it gets so far then stops not to move again. However I have successfuly engraved a plate using a free program, F-engrave, with very satisfactory results. This machine dates back to 2008 and I believe the controller is a few years before that, probably around 2000. The computer I am using came with the mill and is running Windows XP. Any advice would be very welcome,? I have no objection to upgrading to a newer version of Mach but am frustrated it cannot be nade to work.?
Many thanks
Brian?
