I am deffinately looking forward to the day when I can network the multiple machines together... that way I can share offcuts much easier. If ecabs could be made to load multiple jobs, that would solve what I am looking for... I hope. Though I have noticed a few differences between nests done in eca...

I was thinking about including a request to be able to write the code at the computer and send it to the machine from there... but then I realized that there would be all sorts of problems for any place that has multiple machines. We have 2 machines with slightly different setups (ie, one has a dril...

stripped down CN for testing?
Just wondering what the possiblity would be for getting a stripped down version of CN to load on my programming computer for testing purposes. What I mean is, we generally load multiple jobs at the same time into CN and nest them together for cutting. Depending on the jobs, this can have quite an ef...

just for the record, I clean the router and the tool holders throroughly ona a regular basis. this problem is inconsistent... i can run the tool length program a dozen times with all the bits with no problem, and all the doors will run fine, except for when it switches to the one tool once in a whil...

machine e-stops while cutting doors
I have a door profile in Panelmetrix that I have been running trouble-free for a year and a half. It is quite a long-time-to-cut profile, a sheet of doors takes a little over an hour to cut on average. Lately I keep running into a problem where the machine will suddenly e-stop after making a tool ch...

I've had this happen quite a bit recently. I force the program to close, send the error report to microsfot as requested just for fun, and then re-install the latest control nesting update. when you re-install it, it will give you the option to repair it, use this option. when you go back into contr...

also check to make sure that your holes are exact multiples of 32mm appart... just remembered that we don't have the machine setup to drill only 2 holes with the drill bank. our machine uses our single drill (cutter) for hinge holes. It has to be a minimum of 3 spindles that will drop at one time. c...

my supplier told me that something happened to the processing in russia for the baltic birch, and that's why it is getting scarce right now. I know we were told it would simply be unavailable for a month or so some time ago. not sure if they have everything running smooth again or not. we just ran a...

we use Panelmetrix to run our doors. generally takes a couple of hours of testing to create an acurate profile, due to the fact that there is no graphical representation of what you are doing (you need to input the location and depth each tool will run... sounds complicated, but after a day or two o...
