Overview of Estlcam

[@WoodenCreationz]

Excellent Video Bob.. Man I am glad to see a video on this program and it could not have been better explained than what you did. Thank you.

[@rayjohnson3528]

It was a good video. I wish that you would do one that was with the Marlin program, which I run. Trying to learn to do 3d with it

[@Bobscnc]

Sorry, we support grbl. We believe it is the best choice out there for micro controller based CNC's. You can save the gcode and run it with Marlin.

@@Bobscnc the Marlin soft ware will run the code ? Post processor very hard for it ?? Fusions been a nightmare

[@minskmade]

how does estlcam compare to mach 3....ive been spying estlecam for a bit...it looks very intuitive.

[@brandonthompson5795]

@bobscnc Hey bob, Im on the fence about going the Vcarve option as Fusion is not working for my intent of machining with my V1 router. Do you have any tutorials or maybe one could add to the playlist to make a name sign? More looking for outter of the text to be contoured vs, engraved. Estlcam capable of that? Thanks look forward to hearing your thoughts on it.

Please send an email to the [e-mail] in regards to this, thanks!

Hello there, I have a CNC machine and I operate it using Estlcam V11 software. I would like to know how to engrave 10 mm depth by giving the order to the machine to engrave more than 1 mm per rotation cycle! The machine currently does 10 rotations each time I want to engrave something, and I’d like to set it to do 5 rotations or less.

Looks like this would be a good fit with the LongMill CNC?

[@bobwood4193]

Sorry, I am not familiar with the brand. EstlCAM is free to try out.

Compatible with maslow? The only issue I have is no safety hieght, my z axis goes on a runaway

[@Bobscnc]

It should work. It puts our gcode that works with lots of CNCs including grbl firmware.

Hi. Can I use estlcam with mks sgen l main board. I cant connect . Firmware is marlin on mks sgen l 32 bit mainboard. Can you Help me about connection.

[@Bobscnc]

EstlCAM has its own firmware, however, you can save the gcode file and run it using Marlin. If you connect you will erase Marlin.

BobsCNC Thank you. I want to use estcam surface scan. Now I cant use 🤣

What is the easiest way to get the square on the screen that you see in the first 7 sec of the video?

[@Bobscnc]

@@brianadamczak8227 Not sure what the issue is. Is the zero point off the screen. try clicking on the zero icon. Do you have a project open? You will need to open a file first.
