  1. I am not onto MC2025 but would like more information in general about when and why you choose these different options. learning more each day!
  2. Axis Substitution requires a different method when trying to transform rotate. You need to use "Translate" not rotate and "Coordinate" not tool plane. Then on the next page use "Delta" for Method. Rotary Ø * pi / # of pattern instances
  3. Are you doing a spindle and axis warmup before measuring your tools and offsets?
  4. Didn't Bob W have issues with DMG and MillTurn dating back a few years or more?
  5. Our C-Axis lathe has a Siemens 840D controller on it with shop turn software. The Shop Turn software is really powerful and easy to use. We have MC lathe license but the Shop Turn software for R&D one offs is really convenient as you can "copy", "cut", "paste" from existing programs.
  6. Or a merger of sorts??? Lots of changes in the last few years in ownership in the CAD/CAM world.
  7. AFAIK the license files can only cover back to MC2018 or MC2017. So X5 would not be possible.
  8. I still have my purple HASP...it is likely on life support but it works well (easily) for moving my license between my desktop and my laptop. I know if it craps out I am getting a license file...
  9. I usually back their numbers off to about 70% to start and see how it responds on the machine/ part.
  10. This is really useful information!!!!! Thank you @Aaron Eberhard
  11. Make sure the coolant is blasting the on the tool or use through spindle coolant if you have it. Peck drilling cycle with the pecks set to 1/2 the diameter of the drill.
  12. HLE or Home Learning Edition has these restrictions (can not post, can not export etc) Educational versions (paid license) have full access to posting, exporting etc. Your license has to include the products that you are working with (Lathe, Mill, Multi-Axis etc).
  13. Usually most systems have an on-board card for regular graphics and a high performance GPU for CAD/CAM work. So it is switchable graphics. If you only have the High performance GPU than it shouldn't be an issue.
