![]() The second step is to create the Gcode so you can translate the toolpath you make in Cut2D/Vcarve to your machine. STEP 2: Apply the machine settings, cutters, depths and parameters for your machining operation – and finally generate your Gcode compatible with the machine controller (Mach3) Once we have the shape we want to machine inside the CAM software (Vcarvpe/Cut2D in this case) we can move onto the next step and apply tooling strategies. We can generate shapes and designs inside Vcarve/Cut2D (where there is an internal CAD/graphics package) – OR – We can import 2D CAD data from other CAD/Graphics packages (Illustrator, AutoCAD, TurboCAD, Solidworks, CREO, Catia, etc etc). So for example – let’s say we are using Vcarve/Cut2D (so working in 2 dimensions (2D)). The first step is to generate your design/geometry that you wish to reproduce. ![]() ![]() STEP 1: Generate or import your shapes and designs into the CAM software (Cut2D or Vcarve) ![]() So how can I use Mach3 to control my STEPCRAFT? ![]()
