Thermwood / eCabinet Systems

Nat,

I believe that the development team assumed that these front edges of the angled corner cabinet sides would ALWAYS be manually mitered. The "extra" materiel left is calculated based on the materiel thickness and the actual angle of the front face. This is an elegant feature that I am sure some ...

I will guess that the sorting is alphabetical .

Larry,

Perhaps those "(in/min)" should not be removed per say.

Instead, perhaps they should reflect the MACHINE UNITS - as a reminder to the operator as to what unit type is expected. So if the machine is configured in IMPERIAL, then display "(in/min)" or if METRIC, then "(mm/min)".

John,

I do not believe so.

As I understand it... It is assumed that all of the OFF-FALLS recorded by Control Nesting may not necessarily be available. This situation of an "AWAL OFF-FALL" is possible because some other area of the shop may have taken the OFF-FALL and used it in a manual process ...

Josh...

Why two out of three worked (or appeared to work -

Depending on the direction, the first "lobe" was starting out on the correct spot since the straight line and the first arc had an actual intersection during the compensation calculations. Therefore the INCREMENTAL ARC CENTER (defined by ...

Josh,

Was just wondering if my reply to your post helped to resolve your issue...

Josh,

Your issue is because of the lack of arc intersections when cutter compensation is applied. See the images to review the issue and the fix.
If there are any questions, let me know.

Kyle,

I took a look at them and it seems there is something particular to the "F" operations - the geometry associated with the "r64f####.dxf" files.

Just to check.. In the MACHINE CATALOG - Do you have the the following settings?

DXF - Geometry
Break Polylines... YES
Rectangles for Sides ...

Our Service Group here at CNC Automation worked through some triage with the client yesterday and apparently it looks like a 24v power supply issue. The Service Group advised me that the parts are on order and on there way to the client.

Yes... it would probably be best to go through Clint so that the general software support link is maintained.

I am sure that if anyone does request the documentation from him, he will advise them of any updates/revisions.

Canada Day holiday up here tomorrow.

Have a great July 4th weekend!

Great! Thanks for that information/feedback Kyle. I will add a note in our documentation about assigning a different texture to each face.

I will also be adding a couple of notes concerning the tooling definitions that can help minimize things like SHEAR VARIANCE warnings when processing the job in ...

Kyle,

" Face Dependant " information SHOULD be preserved for " Single Sided " ( SS ) materials...

Since CV always places " INNER " machining operations " Face Up " in the DXFs, the assumption is that the standard " OUTER " surface ( the "B" face in eCabinet Systems [/color]) is always placed ...

Kyle,

As far as I know... no - the "Min Pocket Leftover" applies only to POCKET operations and not to OUTLINEs.

To all interested:

CNC Automation has been working with one of our clients in Canada on the link between Cabinet Vision and Control Nesting. The old "Job Level" MDB interface is a "dead-horse" as it requires too much support and additional development from the Cabinet Vision people.

With the ...

For a FREE CAD program that is very AUTOCAD compatible (2D only) is DraftSight . We recommend it to our clients that do not have AUTOCAD and who need a CAD package. Of course it is capable of generating Layered DXF files that can be processed with Control Nesting.
