Try installing and using File Zilla

 

Linky

 

I have found that using my web browser I can D/L but cannot seem to upload, so I use the FTP Client for that

[Ashan]

Ashan,

 

I placed the file on the FTP in the MX2 folder it is called plate.mcx

 

I don't have access to a Mill 3 at this point but I really think you could get that with a Flowline toolpath.

 

Perhaps someone can take a look and lay it out so you can see how.

[Ashan]

thanks

I had someone convert it to a MC9 for me to look at...wont mention names.(JP)

I uploaded back to the MC9 FOLDER on the ftp...called non other then..

 

 

Platekannon.mc9

 

anyhoo...if anyone cares to look and see if those toolpaths will work that would be dandy!

 

and FLOWLINE was the toolpath of choice that I did the majority with.

 

hope its what ya want Ashan!

What version of MCX are you running.

I would and did use flow-line for the outter walls but the top inner inner edge does not flow well due to haw it was made so I made surfces for edge boundrys and did surface finish blend and it looks great.

I will save this in the MCX2 folder as Platecadcam.mcx

JAy,

 

He sent it to me in X2, I saved it back to V9 so Kannon to do something with it.

[cadcam]

Thanks John I did it in McxMR2 so he will be able to open it in X2 with know trouble. Am I suppose to do it in V9 too?

 

Sorry Kannon ,the boss still does not want to update?

its just a matter of time boys...I will be there with you soon...

they are working on a leadman in the area first...then he will be able to guide the cnc dept. many are putting in for the job...and I sense the upgrade very soon.

Flowline worked great for the sides....then I used curve 5 axis held to 4..seemed to look ok...

[Ashan]

Thanks Kannon

Its works great

I still I do not know how to rough this materials

I have outside dia 12" inside dia 10" and 3.75" part zero lenth

If someone give me some idea to rough this

It may help me alot

Thanks

[Kannon]

Ashan...

 

just sent you mail...its the way I would tackle it...

maybe someone else has some different ideas..

 

I used a drill to create a center hole...then did a circle-mill to do the internal 10 inch circle....then used a surface-rough flowline to take the majority of the external material...

 

[Ashan]

thanks

[Ashan]
