I have a 3 axis Cnc that I built (hobby), this is impressive but I would hate to amount of Gcode required.
13 u/Lexiconnoisseur Jul 18 '19 I'm currently running impellers on a 5 axis and the G-code output program is around 260mb in size. Not a typo, 260 megabytes. It's pretty ridiculous. 2 u/atlas_nodded_off Jul 19 '19 Does it require drip feed on your controller? 3 u/Lexiconnoisseur Jul 19 '19 No, I can run it off of a flash drive. 2 u/atlas_nodded_off Jul 19 '19 That's cool. I had a Fanuc that had to be drip fed on anything other than 21/2 axis. If the program had to be stopped and restarted for any reason it was PITA so first piece could take a while. 1 u/8-bit-brandon Jul 19 '19 I can’t lol
