When I make drilling from DRILL layer points, dxf2gcode write:

G0 x... y....
(Drilled hole)

Is it possible to change G0 to something else and cancel text in brackets?

Did you try to use / change the postprocessor?

I change postprocessor to suit my machine for milling, but I cannot change anything about drill,

I need BO instead G0 in drill part of gcode.

Is there more postprocessors, I find only one?

You can create several files for the postprocessor and during export you can choose the one, which you want to use (In the File Menu).

 

 

I never used the option by myself up to now, acc. To the code it should use the same code as the rest of geometries, just stay at the point and not move like a line or arc. Which means

 

-          Position by G0 above the hole

-          Create the Message (Drill Hole) à Here it would be possible to create  additional possibilities  by improving the code.

-          Move in the amount of steps you used for other contours to the drill depth à Maybe skip this part and do something special, is this required?

-          Retract to safe margin. à Maybe skip this part and do something special, is this required?

 

In order to look into the Drill possibilities a bit more can you send me the dxf file you use or create a simple example. I think I need to create an additional point in the postprocessor as you mentioned to add more possibilities to adapt the way how to drill.

 

 

Regards

Christian

If you want to support in adding this function, can you use the ticket which is already created for this issue. This would make things much easier for me.

https://sourceforge.net/p/dxf2gcode/tickets/111/
