Wrong Demension

I use Fusion 360 in the manucaturing program I use a contour action. and I generate .tap machine code. The extension of Mach3 from Artsoft But all sizes are not correct. A square of 283 by 232 mm and 3 mm high becomes 268 by 195 when I mill the workpiece. What am I doing wrong?

There are a couple possible causes to this:

1) You've defined the toolpath as using Cutter Compensation (In Control), but neglected to define the tool size in Mach3.

2) Your machine is losing steps or something mechanical is slipping, causing the effect of "lost steps".

3) You have not defined the toolpath contour correctly..

 

Can you share your Fusion file as well as the posted .NC code? It's likely that the .tap extension will need to be renamed to a .txt for it to be shared to the forum.

For the Fusion file:

Please stop copy/pasting g-code to the forum, the spam filter will quickly move this thread to the spam hold and will be inaccessible by you and I.

Please share your FUSION file, not the posted g-code. Steps to do so:
File > Export > Save to local folder. Return to thread and attach the .f3d file in your reply
