Problem with Mach3 ignoring stepdown toolpath command

Anonymous

When using a 3d adaptive toolpath my CNC router ignores the roughing stepdowns. (mach3 and standard Mach3Mill Post) 

The first roughing stepdown and the fine stepdown works just fine but the router seems to have a problem with the 3d curved rapid toolpath stepping down from safe z to the second roughing depth and just ignores the move without an error and just continues milling at safe z.Screenshot (3).png

Sorry for not providing enough information.  I can not post the model but I can post the g code.

I seems like this line of code is not executed:  

 

G2 X-81.572 Y-140.162 Z-35.997 I-1.365 J2.095

 

(Somehow the forum doesn't allow me to complete attach the .tap file)

I still have to confirm this with a test but it seems like the mill doesn't like commands containing X, Y, Z, I and J values in one command. Is this an issue with the hardware or a software setting issue?

You will have to put the G code in a zip file.

 

You can pm the file or invite me to the project I quite often do NDA stuff.

 

Something is coming out wrong from fusion in the Gcode.
