Re: Announcing a new tool library addon for the Path workbench
This addon is not showing up in my addon manager ATM. I checked versions 0.19 and 0.20.
Re: Job Types
Could I suggest a Machine type or form to tell FreeCAD what capabilities the machine has (ie spindle speed min & max, rapid speeds , travels etc). The post processor reqiured and job type could be recorded on of this form too. Of course some jobs may not use all of a machines capabilities so the...

Re: LibLathe - Lathe Path Generation
Warren I've found the original PathOPGiu.py , navigated to line 1378 which, appears to read the same as your edit. And downloaded your 4 files on page 17 and am now confused how where they are used. Time to ask around town for someone with python coding experience. From memory just replace the four...

Re: LibLathe - Lathe Path Generation
This is discussed on page 16 and 17 of this post. You need to replace the 4 files giving you the error with the ones on page 17.
This whole thread is worth reading if you are using LibLathe.

The second link just below is the LibLathe folder with the needed files. LibLathe didn't work until I replaced the empty LibLathe folder in the TurningAddon wi...

Re: LibLathe - Lathe Path Generation
This folder placement works for me in FreeCAD 0.20 . Note: If the LibLathe folder inside the addon is empty or missing you may need to add the submodule manually . Mine was empty so I had to add LibLathe folder manually. On the first post of this thread the first link is the turning addon the second...

Re: Path Feature #8018 - G84 Canned Tapping Cycle
From my view point tapping is essentially just a drilling operation with a Pitch/Lead parameter. Also from my view point I see very little that needs to change in FreeCAD. A check box , drop down list or even a textbox could be added to the drilling operation to select or specify a cycle type to be ...

Re: LibLathe - Lathe Path Generation
Your post processor needs to not output the Y param. If you are using the post in the liblathe as a start point. The LATHE_MODE flag in your post is probably set to False. Set it to True You can set the Post Processor Args in the job to --lathe-mode.
Code: Select all
LATHE_MODE = True

The files are attached so others can test. These files should work as intended with the origional Pa...
