Don't use either, but it looks like ArtCAM is looking for 3D faces only, and there are none in your .dxf. A better option would probably be to export an .stl.

It's looking really good so far. I know of a fully restored Logan 10x24 belt drive lathe that is for sale. It has a new chuck and backplate on it. It has a 7/8" spindle bore I think. It's in northeastern NC. Local pick up only. The owner is...

I am looking for an Esprit 2010 post for an Acu-rite Mill Pwr 3 axis controller for a Bridgeport, wondering if anyone has a solution.
I've been trying to make the generic 3 axis post work found in Esprit help files. Normal plunges, contours, and pockets seem to work fine. Specifically we are having problems with trying different lead in settings when doing pocketing features such as ramping ...

I just got a BMC-20, it looks to be a nice machine once I get it going.
Since there seem to be more Hurco experts here than anywhere else in the world, I thought I'd join up!
I am having some troubles with the BMC-20. I was worried about control problems, happily the control seems to run great, it's got an upgraded memory board with good lithium AA cells so that's good news.

XYZ axis all tested OK in stepconfig using the "Test this axis" windows.
So I loaded the saved file (axis.ngc) in AXIS, via the desktop shortcut, and when I turned off the ESTOP, and the power on, I expected to hear the motors activate and hold, but didn't.
If I pressed any of the limit switches, a message indicated that the limit had been reached, so I assumed they were all OK, and I ...

Hi everyone,
It's time for a new cnc router build for 2009!
This time around there will be no purchased plans, no intent to singlehandedly stop the world recession with my own expenditures, and no fancy technological tricks up my sleeve.

unit, so it probably needs a seperate circuit from the welder (rated 240va)
