CYCLE TIMES

[BenzB]

Hello everyone,

Is there a way to derive the total estimated cycle time for a program from with in Mastercam? Was thinking the back plot/verify tool would give me that but I don't see it. I see time per move but no total.

 

Thanks in advance.

click on the down arrows in the upper left corner of the backplot window. Then click on the info tab

You have to select all your toolpaths and then backplot > info

 

Or you can use verify but if you're on lathe, a canned cycle screws everything up and you'll probably get negative times.

same with tapping, cimco vs 5 had tool time that where pretty close.
