Repeated Movement

[Khalilullah_Taj]

Hi Johannes,


I am trying to read the .gcode for a few circular motions at varying heights. I am certain that there is only one revolution at each height. However, when I feed it to KUKA core through the gcode command, the robot makes two revolutions at each height. Where do you think the problem is originating from?

Thank you.

Hello,
I see what you mean, it makes a full circle and then goes back to the seam along the circle and from there goes to the next layer.
However, considering that these are basically all LIN movements, I don't really see how this could be coincidental. Are you sure that in your slicer it's only doing it once?
Also, your G-code is around 1000 lines and generates around 700 LINs - considering that there is a lot of header, that sounds very plausible - I don't think that a bug is generating extra movements somehow.
Best,
Johannes

Hi Johannes,

Got it. I will look more into the slicing software and adjust the settings.

Thanks,
Taj
