Thermwood / eCabinet Systems

Don, My name is Greg Cannon. My shop is in Upland, CA (southern CA). Our business model is specifically based on the Thermwood Production Sharing model. We currently cut for shops doing business as far north as Bakersfield and the SF Bay area. We can accept your drawings via email or web and ship fl...

There are 2 seperate issues here: 1) The offiline processing of DXF files and 2) The transfer of offcut info from one machine to another Regarding #1, eCabinets can manipulate drawings and generate TWD files independantly from the SuperControl and w/o any knowledge of the tools and machine capabilit...

Sorry. My mistake. I was wishing more than I was reading.
I look forward to the Control Nesting update!

Thanks Ryan. Can you give me an example of a proper layer name? In Control Nesting->Tooling->Operation Tool(s) Setup, I have Operation: 14 Tool:#11 (Dia = 0.875\") When I click \"Select Operation Tool\", the Description for Tool 11 is \"SE5610\" I've tried the following laye...

You've got a choice of: a)Backing up the files b)Cloning the image If you backup files , generally files that are in use do not get copied.

For what it's worth... I haven't been able to find 5x10 material locally for wasteboard/spoilboard, but I have found 4x8 Ultralight MDF several places. My solution: I copied the geometry from the \"puzzle piece face frame\" and created a DXF file that cuts and \"stitches\" togeth...

In Control Nesting, I have added several jobs (doors, in this case). After adjusting the quantity to be run, I would like to print this list. While I already print the labels and sheets after nesting, these reports do not contain the dimension or quantity information like the \"Load\" page...

I had the same issue. I had a DXF that would take HOURS to process. At first I assumed that the machine had locked up. I kept turning the power off to restart. Finally, curiosity got the best of me and I let it process overnight. The next day, I found that it had eventually completed. The short answ...

I would like to request that the tool number be able to be spcified in the DXF layer name. Currently, if I want a specific tool to be used for a Centerline or Chain, for example, I have to make a bogus, unique tool diameter and specify that diameter in the layer name, like so: \"Centerline z0p5...

I agree with Jeremy. I have been a Software Engineer for the better part of 25 years and am starting up a production sharing business so I will have a Plan 'B' when get tired of competing with college kids for programming jobs. I recently ran into an issue with Control Nesting and it's interpretaion...
