STEP Files with ToolPaths

Recommended Posts

I have a question that might already have been awnsered in this forum, but couldnt find it so I will ask my question.

 

1) Has anybody have had a problem after selecting the edge in 3d mode, you have to select each face in loop?

 

 for some reason mastercam wont let me select in 3d mode for contour toolpath "edge & loop" at the same time to create a toolpath, and I have noticed thru videos that you should be able to select more than on chaining option in 3d mode to follow solid step files.

 

Also I hope my question makes sence.

My suggestion....forget using solid edges for 2D machining.....

 

Learn how to create edge curves and use wireframe geometry.....

 

Solid edges will be limiting and more of a pain......
