Re: Starfire post processor
yes please send me the post.
do you also have a THC on your machine?
I have THC SF-HC25K?
Could you still send me your settings on the CC-M3?

Re: Starfire post processor
I ask the question differently again:
my system ist;
controller: cc-s3c controller
thc: SF-HC25K with JYKB-100-DC
i have i bought the machine in china.starcam was there for g-code generation. I have now exchanged for sheetcam.
i have the problem.
at the beginning i set an altitude. about 5mm then i print k3 to start the THC. the torch moves to the first contour cuts this.
The problem with the exit, the THC regulates the burner towards the plate.
its burner stays with the plate and moves to the next contour and ignites directly on the plate. thus the nozzle breaks.
therefore it would not be bad if I had a z-ref before every start.

Re: Starfire post processor

i don´t understand the
pierce time and location function.
in the ecample can you see the process. but how I do it I'm overwhelmed.
