Auto-correct (DXF) when export

Auto-correct (DXF) when export

If a sheet is produced with a laser-machine, then normally it would become not 100% correct, because the laser has some tolerances.

 

So it would be usefull if the dxf-file could be auto-corrected when exporting it with an user-defined value.

 

For example if the user sets the value to 0,1mm, then the outside-geometry would be made smaller (=> minus 0,1mm) and the inside-geometry (holes, threads, etc.) would be made bigger (=> plus 0,1mm)

 

In effect this is nothing else than the offset-function...

Thomas I ran lasers for years seems to me your operator does not know how to run the laser. We have never had this issue ever. All lasers have an offset in the perameters you may want to look into that.

OK, so we have to check this with our operators...
