Workflow:
1 - Home the machine (top/left)
2 - Jog to work zero, reset zero
3 - Open file and hit carve
4 - after completion the router retract and move top/right
The same design with Easel PP and Easel as sender will retract to safety height and maintain X/Y0 after the carve from the same F360 design.
I assume it is the PP used that define this, and should show in the code but I didnt manage to understand the ending g-code.
My questions are simply the following,and my search came up empty:
Is the top/right position after ended carve defined in the PP? If so, how could I change it?
The safety height is high and I would like to reduce this, another change in the PP or is that a F360 specific detail?
I shot the two main contacts we work with an email. This year they are working with us a bit closer to help get questions like this answered quicker. I sent them the link but it’s 2 hours earlier in California so they might not be at their computers yet.
It’s hard to say what’s going on without seeing a simulation of the toolpaths in Fusion 360. With this, we’ll be able to see all the moves that Fusion 360 is making, and hopefully be able to identify if the issue is in Fusion 360 or the Post Processor.
My hunch is that the issue is with the Post Processor. Can you right-click on your toolpath / setup in Fusion 360 and choose “Simulate”? That should allow us to see all of the moves that Fusion 360 is making, and see if it’s sending the cutter to the upper-right after the cut.
The same design exported with Easel.cps will work as intended with Easel as sender.
Same design exported with OpenbuilsGRBL with UGS as sender send the router to top/right.
I won’t mind adapting the PP to suit / mimic the Easel end of carve X/Y. Do you know what I should look for?
If I got this right I can define the end-point here in F360 PP pane and use whatever negative XYZ-number, like Y-10 X-180 Z-10 which would make the router go to top middle after the carve, or any point I define within the negative work space.
My main issue was I didn’t understand where the motion instructions originated from, wasn’t sure it was a UGS bug or not since I just started to use UGS two days ago
Careful how much you talk about negative workspace around here. This forum might not be a friendly place for those of us that prefer our homes in the back right.
