Mach3 videos

A demonstration of a Mach3 software modification for finding edges, centers and surfaces under computer control. Go to www.cnczone.com for more information on how this works.

The North American Aviation XB-70 Valkyrie was the prototype version of the proposed B-70 nuclear-armed deep penetration bomber for the United States Air Force's Strategic Air Command. Designed in the late 1950s, the Valkyrie was a large six-engined aircraft able to fly at beyond Mach 3 at an altitude of 70000 ft (21000 m), which would have allowed it to avoid interceptors, the only effective anti-bomber weapon at the time. Two XB-70 prototypes were built for the US Air Force. The aircraft ...

In this video we go through Mach 3 to look over the g-code. We are checking to see if we have any problems before we go to the CNC Plasma Cutter. www.cncinformation.com

CNC to Art Video Series Video 10: This is the CNC Video series on how to take an image to a CNC File. This process is one that many CNC Users want to know, but there is not much info on. Here is your chance to get the inside scoop. For more information, please go to: www.cncinformation.com Before we head out to the shop and begin CNC Plasma Cutting, we will check out our G-Code program in Mach 3. This will give us some confidence when running our CNC Program. Mach 3 is a great CNC Control ...

This is a video of a K2 CNC router cutting Birch .75 thick. 2.5D 3 Axis cutting using the new VisualMill bridge feature. The software allowed us to no need a vacuum table or special fixtures. .375 Dia Bit was used .40 depth. 2 Finsih passes to prevent pulling the part from it's bridges. 6 bridges were used.

Make sure that Mach 3 is moving your Axis exactly what it should. Check the width of a known part and adjust the Steps Per in Motor Tuning to get the DRO to match.

Improved Mach 3 Axis Calibration using the Set Steps Per Unit button on the Settings page.

HQ800 Harbor Freight 3in1 Mill Lathe CNC Mach 3 Conversion. First attempt at a video. This 3 in 1 came from Wholesale Tool but is the same as the Harbor Freight unit. X & Y are Gecko driven servos, Z is Gecko driven stepper (which replaced 2nd burnt out Z servo motor!)

This is my rebuilt TechnoIsel router. Everything other than the frame has been changed. Control software is Mach3 from Artofsoft. Rotary axis is from Sherline. Servo controller is from Camtronics Inc. Router spindle is a Hitachi variable speed spindle. The router plate and spindle brackets...

This is a K2 CNC router cutting a guitar body. A Colombo spindle is used. The project uses roughing and finish passes. The bit cuts a depth of 1.5 inches. This project takes about 13 minutes. This was a test or demo run with little enhancements of the program to make the cutting faster. I am sure a Luthier can make the project cut faster. The KG-3925-GC machine is often used for inlay, body, necks, 3D and 2D cutting also. The machine runs about $15000, but basic machine starts at about ...

The 4th axis is driven by a NEMA34 servo motor as axis 'A' using Mach 3 control software. It has more power than the little mill can use, but the turning/indexing rig is intended for a larger machine which I will be convering to CNC when I get done playing with this one. Doing this kind of machinng with Mach 3 software requires a lot of workarounds and macros, but as you can see, it is doable. Now, having proved out the process, I will make a proper head from a solid block af aluminum with ...

Chinese 40W CO2 laser engraver modified to run in Vector cutting mode using MACH3 software. The MoshiDraw software that came with the laser was almost useless. Uses home made chopper drives on the steppers to replace the weak stock driver and give a clean parallel port interface for MACH3. ***** Massive speed improvement, but still not as fast as others you will find on Youtube. I can't complain, this puppy was less than $1000. Next video... Set 20 Cockroaches loose on engraver surface and ...

This is my CNC router cutting out a memorial plaque for my mother. It is my all original design. I am using Mach 3 as my post controller that runs the router, Turbocad 15 to draw the plaque and last, Vectric Cut2D to do any final changes and also to write the G code. This is my first project using my CNC router.

The german gadgets weblog Technoskop compares the latest Gillette Fusion Power against its predecessor Mach 3 Power. A live shaving session will follow soon. Stay tuned.

Tiger Woods, Roger Federer, and Thierry Henry convince men to trade-up from MACH3 to Gillette Fusion Power.
