wire library

[emhart2002]

I have a question concerning the wire library. I was recently running version 7 and went to 9. I updated my 7 library. When I pick the wire tool on my list, the settings for the wire dia. and offsets are not right. Am I reading it wrong? or is something funny going on?

 

Example: shouldn't my wire diameter be .010 with a radius of .005?

 

what about the "wire overburn" and the "stock to leave" directly under the wire dia and radius. Shouldn't there be something there?

 

I thank you in advance for your replies

This is all a matter of what your used to using and how your post is set-up. I don't use over burn. I have over burn already figured into my wire dia. Example If your taking one pass using .010 wire with a power setting that has a .002 over burn the radius would be .007. This number would be larger if your taking skim cuts.

emhart2002,

 

I'm not familiar with the Wire module, but can't you put the correct values back in and save your library?
