Problem with Pronest 10 CNC output

Postby highlandjeeper » Mon Jul 26, 2010 6:06 pm

My father-in law passed away just before Christmas, and in his memory I have drawn his signature with autocad to cut it from 3/16" MS and affix it to a stone above the creek looking over the yard at the family ranch. I use Pronest 10, and the problem I am having is on the sharp corners, the cut path that is output is making loops into the actual part I want to keep. I hav tried to convert the sharp cange of direction to a radius to give a defined line to follow, but this did not work. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks

scale up the size before you convert it to a cut path then scale it to the size you want and cut.

Good call. Never thought of that. I will give it a try tomorrow.
