Back in the saddle again - we're getting MasterCam here

[kathy]

Hi guys (and gals)

 

We are buying a new CNC machine here and we all agree to bring in MasterCam. Currently there is an older SmartCam version in use.

 

Yea Haw!

 

I've been given the task of implementation and training.

I know how to find you Jay Lol

I'm looking forward to this. I'm still administrating Windchill; getting ready for an upgrade there as well.

Hey.. good to see you back here.

Are they buying you the latest greatest or will you be using an older version

[JAMMAN]

Glad to see you back, Kathy. How long has it been since you MasterCammed? It's like riding a bike

[kathy]

We will be getting X6; the machine they want is a Hass. Jamman, I was doing some overflow work for Applied last year at home, so I still have a good knowledge. The Arizona VAR (MCL-CAD) linked me up with a demo home version so I've been playing this afternoon...

SO I got the quotes and the justification all buttoned up for a Haas VF-3YT. Yahoo.

Nooooooooooooow, they want a CNC Lathe too. Yahoo. A Citizen A20. The new ones are VII but there are some used VI models out there. If I can get some idea of what live tooling setup they think they need, I can look at MasterCam for the lathe package.
