Vectric: Exporting a job file

This article explains how to export a toolpath into a G-code file in Vectric

< Previous | List | Next >

Once you create toolpaths, you can export them into a G-code file. Click on Toolpath on the right hand side of the Vectric screen.

 

 

You will see a list of created toolpaths. 

 

If the check box next to a toolpath is ticked Vectric will show a preview of this toolpath. Tick on the check box next to Toolpath to select/deselect all the toolpaths.

 

In this example we will only export a single toolpath into a G-code file.

 

Select the required toolpath in the list and click on Save Toolpath.

 

Select Selected toolpath radio button. The toolpath selected and the tool used will be displayed under Toolpaths to be saved… Select YetiTool SmartBench in the Post Processor drop down.

 

Click on Save Toolpath(s)... 


 

Select the location for the G-code file and its name. By default Vectric will name the file after the toolpath’s name.

 

Repeat this for the next toolpath. We will name this Unit 12 Stylus drawing - sharpie

 

Your G-code file is now ready to be transferred to SmartBench.
