Thread: smoothing out font cuts

As you have observed it is the rigidity of the machine which is causing it.

Couple of things come to mind.
First slow down the feed rate - the speed it travels and not the speed of the router.
If this produces burning then you will have to take multiple cuts - the plunge rate needs to be lowered..

Both of these setting are accessible in Vcarvepro from the tool database - the area where you select the tool and then go to edit and adjust those settings. You will need to re-calculate your toolpaths to change your Gcode.

Mach3 can slow down the feed rate by using the feed rate override feature on the "Program Run" screen so you might like to try that first..

You can cut the same job multiple times so if you have not demounted the job nor changed the X,Y or Z setting on your machine run the job again. A second run will improve what you have there.

Thanks for the tip Rodm.
Seems to make a big difference.

Will keep playing with the settings know I know what they are
