Verify issue

[KalCam]

I have a couple roughing ops, a few curve 5 axis, then a simple pocket op using true spiral. Run verify and the pocket operation looks like it was cut with a chain saw. So I changed pocket op to parallel spiral and looks great.

 

Also if I verify without the multi axis paths it looks fine using true spiral.

 

Anybody have any suggestions, thanks

Do you have the multi axis solids verfy option??

If you do, you will have a file named

verify.acc in your mastercam folder.

Yes I have multi axis verify, I even fired up X2 MR1 to try (same result) and had to enter my access code.

 

If I run all the ops except the pocket and save stock as stl then run the pocket spiral it works fine.

 

I suppose I will just need to post it out and look for anything weird.

If needing to get something done then I would agree move on, but would be in contact with my dealer to see if they can help solve your problem. You might have got code a for a different sim if you guys have more than one sim.

I always turn my tool resolution to .001.

It slows things down, but it makes Verify's results much sharper.

I made a simple model similar to what im working on and put on the ftp site named: verify test, in the X2 folder.

 

I would like somebody to load it up and verify with the curve 5 axis path on then off. Let me know if its just my system or what. Thanks again

Worked here no problem.

 

So not sure what is going on. You might try a reinstall and see if that takes care of it for you.

Thanks for confirming its my system. I will contact reseller and go from there.

SC, I'm getting the same thing as you describe. It looks like it thinks the tool is still at 5°. If I use a different tool # for that pocket it works fine. What video card are you using? I've got a crappy Intel 82865G integrated.

[KalCam]

Span, thats it. It is not changing the tool back to 90. I just ran the verify gview right side and its plain as day. I wonder what the solution is.

SC, You should send this into qc at mastercam.com

Looks like a bug to me.

We had the same problem here for a couple of months ago. CNC software know about this and it is logged as bug number cnc00025757.
