#ALL TO GCODE CONVERTER FULL#

Have an option for full rectangle movement to minimize the accelerations.

I love the idea of eliminating wasted movement but it is that movement that keeps the constant speed necessary for a clean image If you are willing to make a few changes for us MPCNC users could I please request the following: I love this app and I am really sad that it wonвЂ™t work for the MPCNC for most images and logos etc. It looks like it is about 5 mm on either side that is darker than it should be but the rest is pretty good. The far left and far right sides of this 80 mm square burn are darker where the machine is speeding up and slowing down. So donвЂ™t judge that part.) But if you look closely at this next image you will see that it actually worked. (Unfortunately I left the travel speeds set so high that my machine skipped some steps so the X axes shifted a little. I was hoping to discover that the outer edges would be darker but the center of the image would be the perfect grey. I decided to test an image that doesnвЂ™t have any вЂњSkippedвЂќ space. So I gave up on that idea before I even tried it. Sure, I could try a few combinations to eventually get the horse legs light enough to be correct but then the body of the horse would be way to light colored. I thought about running a test using lower power settings on the laser but I realized that would be like trying to hit a moving target. So I know for sure the top speed doesnвЂ™t matter if the acceleration is so slow that we will never reach that top speed. They are just as dark as the first test at 600 mm/m. The result is pictured in the first image. I decided to end that test early and test again increasing the speed in the app to see if it made any difference. My previous burn used a constant speed close to 10 mm/s that passed the entire length of X one layer at a time. This was made using a different program on the same machine, same wood material with same power settings. I let the test run for a while and the larger partial horse was the result.

So it was burning much darker than it should have. The problem is the machine at full acceleration couldnвЂ™t get up to full speed of 600 mm/m. It went back and forth left to right for a few lines then returned to the first hoof for a few lines. I saw the laser move directly to the first hoof then go back and forth left to right for a few lines then jump far to the right to start on the next hoof. In the file created by the app it started with the legs. That should make the darkest spots at full power burn a dark brown.

I have tested this speed with my laser previously and I know it is a good speed to use that will produce the most even results.

In my first attempt to use this program I set the speed to 600mm/min (or 10mm/s). In some of my testing I used this horse image as an example. Smaller laser engraver machines can accelerate faster so I think this program can work very well for them. So it needs to take extra time and distance to get up to speed. The MPCNC has a lot of weight to move around. As a former programmer I commend you for a job well done. Creative solution that took time and effort to implement I am sure. I also like the way you made it so it doesnвЂ™t have to do as many unnecessary moves. I love the clean interface, the idea of keeping it simple but functional. I have some test I really like the program. I have been testing this program the Viktor made and posted on Thingiverse.
