Looking for X3 Brochure Parts

[Doug Nemeth CNC Software Sales]

Hi All-

 

With the release of Mastercam X3 on the horizon, we are beginning the design planning of our X3 product brochures.

 

History has shown us that it is often difficult to come up with good examples of machined parts that we photograph and use in our brochures. Many times we will come across a very good customer part only to find out that it is proprietary and can't be used.

 

So, we are appealing the best cross section of users that we have out there, our user forum.

 

This is what we need:

 

1) Mill: preferrably a mold/die part, nothing too simple.

2) Lathe: We're looking for something from the medical field, but if you have an impressive part, we'll certainly look at it.

3) Wire: Anything that you feel would be a good representation of Wire.

 

Please make sure that any parts you share are not proprietary in nature. If need be, we can sign a non-disclosure. If a physical part can not be provided, there is a possility that we can machine it ourselves, but a physical part would be better.

 

We will use the photographs of the parts on the covers of the brochures and well as screen shots of the MCX files.

 

If you have a file (photograph, MCX or both) you'd like to share, please upload it to our FTP site here:

 

"ftp://ftp.mastercam.com/Customer Area/To Mastercam/X3 Brochure parts/"

 

Once the file is uploaded, please send an e-mail to [email protected] to let us know that it's there and the name of the file(s).

 

Since our primary criteria is the look of the part, you can strip out toolpath information from the MCX file to save on file size.

 

If we use your part in our X3 brochures, we will certainly give your company credit for the part.

 

Any questions can also be directed to [email protected].

 

Thanks in advance!

 

Doug

So far, very few responses, so bump for some more.

The ftp kept saying I didn't have permission, but it appeared to have load the jpgs.

Great parts! I'll check the FTP to see if they came through. Thanks for taking the time to do this.

Should make it interesting for us common folks. Like a free seat of mastercam if we get our part used.
