5 axis verify

[shazam/TPP]

upgraded to true solids 5 axis verify and it comes out looking gouged along impellar vanes.

When i turn off true solids it looks good.

Welcome the the forum

 

A shared file on the FTP would help someone see what you are seeing.

 

Are you sure your retracts and clearance moves all are high enough?

John,

I tried uploading the file to FTP, but it's asking me for a user name and password when i try to open it in windows explorer. I have IE ver 7 and I also unchecked the "Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL modem compatibility)" checkbox. Help?

Any chance you could roll back to IE 6 or got to mozilla.org and install Filezilla?

 

I can't say for certain IE7 is the problem but there seem to be alot of issues since people started installing it.

[shazam/TPP]

no can't go back or get mozilla

I have to say MC ver9 had a better verify feature. The part rotated instead of the cutter moving, i've read earlier posts and see people have had similar problems where the next tool can wipe out the entire part just because of how it plots it with the tool. Sometimes new isn't better. shame

IE7 remove is in the Add and remove programs list.

Do I need to be a paying member to access FTP?

[Guest]

No you do not

 

It's likely either IE7 or your IT dept that is not allowing FTP connections

when verify repositions a tool around a rotary axis (say the c axis on a table/table type machine), it repositions the tool, not the part as how it would be done a actual machine. this will run the cutter all the way through the part. Did this in 9 and X and X2....I can make a simple example of this if people wish to see.

[shazam/TPP]

please, i'd like to see your example

5ax gouge file here

 

again, a very simple example, but it shows exactally what I am trying to say
