verify crawl

[k turk]

i haven't updated to any X3 (running X2 MR2 SP1); but i have just upgraded my computer (down to 5 minutes on the benchmark).

 

my latest problem is that verify is CRAWLING, even on simple two dimensional contours and the slider biased all the way to 'speed' it staggers along with all the motivation of a drunk at 2am headed home to his wife.

 

where's the 'go fastest' setting?

 

thanks

what is your tool tol set at?

[k turk]

the part i am on now is only 2D - i am not aware of a tool tolerance in the contour 2D parameters

 

the linearization tolerance is set to 0.001. would that be about the same as what you are asking or are you talking about something what i don't know about?

k turk,

Tool Tol is a setting in Verify, you have to click on the Configure folder and in there you will find Tool Tol., another thing to check is whether the machine slowly-machine quickly slider is set all the way to the right. It is the one at the bottom of the Verify Window. HTH

thanks. the simulation speed was set almost to the far left, but to answer the tool tolerance question - it is set to 0.008. is that a reasonable setting?

Also make the "arbor dia" on the tool definition

the same as the cutter dia

If none of the other suggestion help speed up Verify, try this....before you start the verify simulation, zoom in on a small area of the part. Then start the verify, it should go much faster then. I do this when I have very large complex programs that I verify. When you see that it is at 100% zoom out and view your results. HTH

.008" is a good setting and should be fast in X3.
