G Code Generator for Educational Edition

Anonymous

Does the educational edition fully support G Code generation?

This is a sample of the crap that Fusion put out.  The Tormach finds twenty errors, so I gave up.  I am a CAD guy, not a machinist.

My limited research, there is no G0 or G1 commands.  Why is it creating them?  Why is there M code in this G code file?

1) wich postprocessor did you use?
2) Yes there is G0 and G1, thats "short" for G01 and G00 (depending on control it might not work)
3) M-codes are part of G-code, or rather NC code.  Its machine-commands, M6= toolchange M3= spindle start

Thanks for the response.

I used the Tormach selection on the generator.
As I said I had so mane errors I just started modifying things
seemingly random, and still had dozens of errors.
The M code seem to be the ones that we flagged the most. The machine does
have a auto tool loader, but maybe I did not line that up.

I'll attack it again.
