Creating First CNC Plasma G-Code Using Fusion360 With a Floating Head

This is the part of your build that I had the hardest time with. You did a great job with your tutorial. l had struggles with Fusion 360. The Fusion 360 learning curve was very steep for me. I do have My machine up and running. I could not be happier with the end results. I did add Proma THC along with splash rails and a water storage under the table with filters and a pump to refill. Mine sets in the shop and the water evaporation raises the humidity. I don't use it every day. It made sense to me not dragging a hose out refill. Thank You again for your excellent build video.

Thank you so much for this video! you answered so many questions I had that no one ever answers in their videos.

Great informative video. I will be using Fusion 360 for both CAD/CAM but have never used it for plasma. Now I know what to look for in the post processor. Thanks!!

Great vids, have been really enjoying your build series, making me seriously consider your plans as a next level upgrade to a smaller table I just finished. Hope you'll continue making more vids!

Very helpful video, thanks !

Very nice and informative, cheers. Keep up thr good work

good video with many info ... good plasma fusion explanation ... i plan to use fusion in my shop ...

Excellent video. Great detailed explanation. 29:12 Extremely helpful. Thanks so much for posting.

Thank you for the video; it was what I needed to get things rolling for me. I have been retrofitting a very old Vicon 6' x 24' plasma table. I have 20+ years of CAD experience and have always wanted to do this as a hobby. I will upload a video of the dinosaur on my other channel (I accidentally commented with it but deleted it, I do not pay a lot of attention to it yet on replies) once I finish setting up the BuildBotics controller.

Great video!

Great video

Круто), ты молодец😊

Amazing content thanks u

That was very good and helped me alot. I'm trying to learn the Mach3 ropes and how it interacts with my table. I figured if I could make the g-code work with a marker to draw out a small test project. I should be able to then replace the pen with my plasma cutter. Mach3 is way different from my CNC Router controller but most of the steps are the same in fusion 360 to get the g-code.. Then once I add the plasma cutter and get the probe height working with that. I start to figure out the THC.. Crawl, Walk, Run!

Awesome

Great video! Though I believe I will have to watch this a couple of times more🧐 All the parts will soon arrive, Im so excited to get started😛 One concern I do have, Im working with millimeter and not inch..🤔

Nice job on the build. Now that you've finished the entire project, could you do a wrap up video to cover what worked well for you and what you would do differently if you did it again. I think this would be the most valuable video for those of us that will be building one. Again, thanks!

Do u know, what thick of the nozzle it s best for clean cuts?

Are there any nuances or differences in the initial settings for floating z setup if I’m using fusion360 and post-processing in open builds? I just finished my first table and it’s down to these settings before coming alive.

tosh I've followed your cmc plasmas table build very closely and build one using your plans almost to the tee. I did use open builds black box as I'm very new to this and feared the electronics and computers more than anything. It's up and running cutting out trial tabs etc. much thanks for all your help. I am struggling with significant bevel (20-30 degrees and parallel in y negative and y positive travel) on my cuts however, especially on the y axis. both side of the the tab bevel the same direction. the x axis cuts are perfect in positive x travel, and beveled in negative x axis travel. I've messed around with torch alignment, cutting heath and speed, but I'm really stretching my head. any suggestions?
