Engraving .dxf
Posted: Mon, Aug 02 2010, 10:17AM
I'm trying to route a headstone for a fellow co-worker. Since there is so much information in the ecabs file, it locks the cnc up everytime I try and load it. We have had this problem before and have left the machine trying to load and it eventually does load, hours later. How can we make this quicker? I know that you can load a .dxf file straight to the machine and run it that way. I don't know everything about it though. I have a .dxf I made in AutoCad, but I don't really know how to take it straight to the machine and run it. The other problem is that the piece of wood we are going to put it on is 5" thick. We are not trying to cut it out, simply just trying to engrave it. Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thanks for you time.
