How do I remove this out of the gcode
« on: August 24, 2008, 10:27:12 PM »
How can I remove the N35  Z0.7200  and all the ones just like it. I have been doing it manually and that sucks on some of the larger codes I create.

Davy, how are you generating the code? Is this a safe z move?

The z height of .72 is added in somehow. No matter the shape with a multiple depth cuts it adds it in, instead of just going to the next depth.

Davy,
One way to make editing a little easier is to open the file with Microsoft Word.
Then use EDIT>FIND>REPLACE Z******************x
                               REPLACE WITH (Z******************x)
                                check REPLACE ALL

Hi, Davy

Try this post below, It has one Issue, It doesn't like final pass less than a Full "Pass Depth" in Tool setings, Sometimes, See Pic.

It needs to be in your C:\Mach3 Folder to set it in Lazyam.

Hope this Helps, Chip

Here is the lcam file that I am working with at the moment. I tried with depth starting at zero and going to negative and then starting at material height then going to zero with the same effects. I am going to try some of the others items mentioned here in a second.
