After saving my Crv files in Vcarve Pro and changing it into text files for Mach3-I have one letter on my engraving project that is not cutting deep enough. How do I edit the text files in Mach 3 and how do I know the exact ones to edit to allow the engraving to cut deeper on just that letter? Thank you!
I would replace the default editor (notepad) with the FREE CNCCoder from
http://www.cnccoder.com/ first.
CNCCoder allows you to change colors of letters e.g make G green and Z red for ease of viewing.
It also has a search function so by knowing your y position you can find the block for that letter.
replace z with a bigger negative number
You open CNCCoder using the Edit button in Mach3
After making the changes save the file and new gcode file will automatically be reloaded
Perhaps find the line and do a RUN from here and then stop.
