![]() ![]() A rough copy from the Cambam Forum shows how to set the tolerance in Cambam so you don't have to manually edit the gcode output file each time you save it: ![]() But Cambam doesn't yet include a place to enter the tolerance. In Cambam, the Velocity Mode setting is a drop down menu choice in the Machining folder of the tree view. One needs to learn about toolpath tolerances when using Constant Velocity, because otherwise corners and turns may get overly rounded. ![]() So I recommend to use Constant Velocity mode for the toolpath for files destined for Autoleveller, not Full Stop. ![]() Now, before we go into the general items of the list, I want to include a bit on the toolpath modes and how to program them, because Autoleveller breaks up the gcode into bite-sized segments, and each gets Z (height) adjusted to compensate for Z (height) errors.Ĭonstant Velocity mode (set via a "G64" in the gcode) moves the machine around curves and tiny Z changes produced by Autoleveller get cut relatively quietly and smooth, whereas when the program is set to Full Stop mode (set via G61 in the gcode), all the Z adjustment transitions are audible and the machine vibrates significantly more. This is based on using Autoleveller with output from Cambam, and using Linuxcnc, but it should be informative for other app combinations as well, because the principles are the same. For benefit of others, I explain my Autoleveller process using an actual probe device: ![]()
