Hello guys,
I have a problem with converting Arcs to Linear Movements. Your suggestion from this post has already been implemented (Avoid Arcs: min arc length: 0.5mm, max arc length: 0.2mm).
//www.sinclairbody.com/forum/Thread-avoid-ar...avoid+arcs
When I start a CNC Project (GCode) with G01, G02, G03 commands, the lead-in command (5 or 3mm arc) is never transferred correctly to a LIN Movement butremains a CIRC Movementinstead! This is insofar a problem that the blending of Points (CDIS) generates imperfect circles because the robot deviates too early from the given patch. I am certain that he would not do that, if he would translate the first lead-in correctly into a few linear movements. I have experimented with the arc length settings, but can´t change the lead-ins (and somehow only the lead-ins).
Attached you will find several files.
1. An exemplary cut of a copper sheet, where the lead in deviates too early so that the whole circular contour is not closed.
2. Excerpt of the GCode.
3. Excerpt of the generated kuka code
4. Screenshot of the robot program
5. The "avoid arcs" settings
6. The actual RoboDK file
Yours
Hermann
