WELCOME CENTER, GOOD INFO & MEET OUR SPONSORS.One last comment thinking about it, I think it was the speed changes that caused many of the glitches for me, a bit like a definite stop when it tried to change speed when approaching corners. Mach3 is old now, so really for commercial production I would think something with future support would be better.

If you have then look at going across to a Linux based PC controller with a real time clock kernel, or even ask on the Artsoft forum about performance of Mach4 All I can suggest is try it out start with basic shapes and see if you have issues.
I think the post processor does not know or care what metal you have to cut what, thickness speed etc as it is the machine controller type physical interface to get things to work with your controller, such as a fanuc post for a fanuc type controller etc. To manually test you macros work turning on and off THC you could always try the MDI screen and just enter the commands on the input line to check it is switching THC. I have a rather old Dell Optimax GX 260 at this end so not the most powerful or quickest one going. Mach3 can be glitchy yes, but I will be honest and say that the THC On/Off has tended to be OK on mine but I tend to switch off THC when a small shape so it is off for the duration of a small cut rather than switch on and off during the cut, But! I would suspect it is also down to processor speed, RAM etc and what else the computer is trying to do at the same time. I hope that helps, sorry if I picked up the wrong idea let me know. So you can build up a selection of cut ting rules that you are likly to need, when it comes tp actually cutting metal you can select what cut rules should be in use or not before generating the Gcode.

Next open the cutting rules editor and start to generate your cut rules, the two new code snippets you have just entered can now be part of your cut rules as in the start code and end code. In Sheetcam go to "Tools" section left hand side and click on the create new code snippet The cut rules are generated and saved in Sheetcam and become part of the plasma cutting tools. Then apart from changing the variables in the post to suite your machine, that is all one would do to to the post processor. I assume this is the mach3 THC with scriber post? If you make the two macros up and place them in the C:/Mach3/macros/Pasma location, if I read correctly Sorry of I get it wrong about what you are asking,
