L Pulleys

Post by Wod »

Art,
    I cut a couple of 'L' pulleys back in the first part of June, a 24 tooth and a 15 tooth, and the both worked perfectly. I'm replacing the motor on my little milling machine and need to cut a new motor pulley. The belt doesn't fit with the present Gcode output. Also I get the same Gcode when I change my A-axis options from X++ to X--. Did something change or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks,
Wiley

Hi Wiley:

You have to regerate the toolpath once you change the output option I think.. As I recall it uses the information
when it generates the path. You should definitely see a diference when swapping from x++ to x--. No code has changed
in that section in over a year at a minimum. Make sure your chekcing it in the notepad on generation, it may be your checking a file
that isnt changing? Or we're  just missing something..

  I'm still not sure what is going on with my old laptop in the shop, but the desktop upstairs works just like you said it would. Could also be cranial flatulation. Thanks.
