TB188 - Automatic Sequential Part Numbering for Engraving (All)

Does anyone have experience with this? I can not find the sample macros in the CNC12 directory. Is this an example they even include anymore? Does anyone have a similar macro for engraving serial numbers, or a link where I could read up on this? Any help would be much appreciated.

Well no dice. I have a custom machine built and the community PP. No check box for connecting moves. I loaded a generic machine and PP as well. I still don't have the dialog box. I am running a full version not a hobby version of Fusion.

Well I will have to look again to see if I have missed something when I get home. Unfortunately, when I edit the machine and choose the current community_v1.0 PP, I don’t see the check box. That’s exactly what I was hoping to find.

Re: Fusion 360 Mill Post Processor for CNC12 with additional Features (New Community Version 1.0)

Thank you for the response. Maybe I was not communicating very well. I have a machine built in the machine builder and it works accordingly. To see the machine moves from home to tool change position to touch off is not showing in the simulator. All the links and moves from the retract positions are ...

Is there a way I can customize the post so fusion 360 can display all of the travel moves? I’m interested in seeing the tool change moves so I can better see collision.

Re: Guide on how to measure Tool Heights and set WCS Z0 on a Router or Mill with none-fixed Tool Holders most efficientl

I am running a small mill. I have a fixed TT set up on G30. Tool changes work well. I have always used a 3D probe to find my corner position, then install a tool and manually set my Z, then recorded my Z using the Probeapp to get the first Z offset and run the beginning of the program without ...
