7 bites later my PCB side was done, beautiful! With CNC backplot editor i was able to remove these excess gcode movements and have a file that i could chop into 500 line bites to take to the mill. This made a simple square pad or corner need 4 times the code to draw. Wow! Upon closer examination i found that the square pad shapes were being drawn with several arcs. Then i found that the size of the files was over 300kb and the gcode lines over 10000.

(not nearly as nice as Sprint but.) I converted it with pcb-gcode ULP, and then with Opti to optimize milling order. I switched to Eagle and made the diagram there. Need Help!- Newbie with x4 and x5 issues.I apologize for the 30 second delay, the web file hosting site is not the best. The Sprint generated isolation milling PLT file: South_iso_Gerber.gbr - download now for free. I tried LineGrinder to convert a jpg to g-code, but it also fails, maybe the configuration?Īnyways, I'm looking for advice and tips, maybe your own solutions or recommendations regarding software etc. I have tried to convert the PLT to G-code using Lazy Cam but it has trouble imaging the complete circuit. I want to convert PCB files from my Sprint Layout 5.0 to G-code files for my Mach3 set up CNC mill, but the output of Sprint is only in Gerber, BMP, JPG and PLT.
