Re: [Emc-users] G Code Generators

2007-12-02 Thread John Thornton
I've uploaded a new version of face.py to EMC Wiki with
many new features some of the suggestions from Manfredi 
have been incorprated as well as some I thought it needed 
as well as the fix for the remainder undocumented feature 
that Tom found...

Please let me know if you see any problems or areas for
improvement.

Hi Manfredi,

Thanks for the suggestions. 1, 2 and 3 are easy to do 4 might take a bit. 

I didn't even think about M3 as I have big red and black buttons on my
CNC mill to start the spindle LOL... 

I like the Feedrate label better. 

I just assumed that if your facing a part that the highest point would be
at Z0.000... What situation would you need to clear something? Just trying
to understand why this is needed... Easy to do none the less. I had that in 
mind 
for pockets but didn't think it was needed for facing...

I like the images idea. If someone has some good looking images that would
work and are not commercial images I'd try and include it. Otherwise it might
take me a while to make those changes if I have to make images too... 

Thanks so much for taking the time to make these suggestions.
John

Thanks for the updated code. I'll add it to my latest verstion. 
I'm also adding direct file save and a config for your nc files folder...

This is neat stuff.

Re: [Emc-users] G Code Generators

2007-11-28 Thread Manfredi Leto

Hello, 

now it works, 

just three suggestions:

1) add "spindle speed" field and add a M3 SXXX at the beginning. If we don't 
start the spindle, facing is not possible ;)

2) Change the "Cutting Speed IPM" lable in "Cutting Speed IPM or mm/min" so if 
one is using mm knows that the field indicates mm/min and not inches/min. Maybe 
"Feedrate" is better than "Cutting Speed". 

3) Maybe you could add a field "Safety Height", so the first movement will not 
be for example G0 Z0.1000 but G0 ZSafetyHeight, the second move will be for 
example X-1.1000 Y0. so  the tool will reach the initial point at the 
safety height, after that you can give a G0 Z0.1000 and a G1 Z-1.000 to go to 
the defined depth.

There is a fourth suggestion, but it is only a graphic idea. Would be nice to 
have images that show what are the parameteres you are setting. When you click 
on a field the image changes and shows you what is that field, something like 
this:

http://imagebin.org/12032
http://imagebin.org/12031

Those are taken from EdgeCam. 

Nice work, I think more of them could be made and they could be very useful to 
do all those small milling tasks that are too simple to use a complete Cam and 
annoying if  manual programmed. 
Maybe I could help you to program some of these. 

Greetings, 

Manfredi

[Emc-users] G Code Generators

2007-11-26 Thread John Thornton
I have the first of a series of G Code generators for EMC up on my web site.

http://suburb.semo.net/jthornton/EMCGen.html

These are Python/Tkinter so everyone that has EMC2 on an Ubuntu box should be 
able to run them.

I hope to combine them when they are all finished to one file.

These are for the simple tasks that might get the code to EMC2 faster than
using a CAD/CAM program. Tasks such as facing, pockets, slots, drill patterns 
etc. 

Let me know what you think. And any seasoned Python programmers any tips
or improvements to my code are welcome...

John
