Working post for Denford Triac Mill???

[RLEZ]

I would like to know if anyone out there is using Mastercam with a Denford Triac Mill. I have downloaded the generic mill post from Mastercam's site, and tried Denford's post, but neither one works properly. Two dimensional work like pockets seem to work fine, however, trying to mill 3D using surfaces it goes all over the place. I would greatly appreciate if anyone can assist me in customizing one of these posts to perform properly.

Thanks

RLEZ,

 

Do you know what is wrong with the 3D code?

What version of Mastercam are you running ?

If using v8 or v9, do you have the toolpath filter function enabled when creating your 3D paths? This can cause ARC moves to be generated

(in planes OTHER than the XY plane), which your post may not be handling properly.

I tried e-mailing you concerning your post issues and got an "undeliverable" reply. If you would like to contact Mastercam's Educational office I would be more than happy to help you.
