Machine def

[JDowe]

I am trying to build a 5 Axis with A Axis

and C Axis on top of the table -trunion I guess-

Problem is I can't put anything on top of the

table - it is illegal axis combo - but

if I take a predefined 5 Axis machine from Mcam library I can mpodify it by deleting and substituting the Axis I need - this machine has

"fixture/holder" as the terminator apparently this will work but this is not a choice from the components library - Question how do I create

or find this component

Thanks for any help

J,

un-check the table in the axis combo

sorry, I answered the question before i finished reading.

 

The 'Mill Rotary Axis Chuck' in the all components file is the same thing. You can rename the component to anything you want.

Thanks Steve

 

Unchecking the table did the trick

Could have saved a couple of hours

if that had been obvious to me
