  1. Yes they do and you get the Post and Gcode simulation as part of the purchase.

  2. InHouse Solutions post here... about a half-dozen tweaks at around a week per request. I assume they implement them into their main version, so if you get this post from them it should be pretty solid.

  3. They do (post and verification/collision detection) and it's an awesome setup, but with the price to match. Definitely worth it if there is money in the budged for it.

  4. CamPlete would be another option. Likely more expensive, tho with full simulation.

  5. Does the control support G12.1?

  7. You have inverse which is giving you the correct output on the Rotary. Change that and see if any one of them give you what you think you want. I suspect after you give it and try and see how bad it might fail if the machine is not doing a move compensation on its own you will revert back to using inverse time which is account for the full travel of your C axis table where the others will not if the machine doesn't have the ability or option to move according to it's exact placement on the table.. VTL is a tricky beast and if you have a hole to machine 46" off from center and you program 20 inch per minutes it might exceed the C Axis capabilities and never achieve that cut. With Inverse time set correctly you will get a smoother motion that if the machine cannot achieve what you need you might get some quality issues you were not getting before, but some lesson are best learned by doing. I could be total off base here so please report back what you come up with after making this change I would like to know the machine, controller and such so if it does work perfectly I tell people who ask me about a machine capable of doing I can recommend one to them.

  8. What Spindle Speed? What Options? What kind of material will you be cutting? 441lb is not a lot of Weight so I have to assume small to Medium parts? Use the Mazatrol side for your tool management and the eia side for your programming. I like the outputting my suffix letters using the .01 = A, .02 = B, and such so I can really harness the power of the Mazatrol tool and tool life management. I hope someone was wise enough to demand a Machine Model as part of the purchase.

  9. Stick with the MPMASTER. It is written to do 4 axis continuous/multiaxis, and I have used it to do those toolpaths on both VMCs and HMCs. There are a number of switches at the top of the post too that might help you out. It could also be how you are setting up your toolpaths. Make sure you are locking the Y axis in your parameters, assuming you are rotating on the x axis. I wasn't involved in the detailed set-up of the MD/CD for the above but there are plenty of people here who I am sure will chime in with advise, there is probably more than one way to skin the cat.........a sample file with the problem will greatly help troubleshooting.

  10. We use the Postability post, it works very well for us. No matter which you choose, there will be some tuning necessary, the guys at Postability are usually pretty quick at making any edits you need. As for features, I'd recommend the peck tapping & decreasing peck depth drilling options be enabled. And our post uses a misc real to select between rough, medium & finish HSM modes.

  11. Keep raising your off time until the voltage reads between 40-50 About 5 at a time and also lower your on time 1 at a time.

  12. This is every solid carbide threadmill that Carmex makes. Each library is named exactly as Carmex describes them in the catalog. These are from 2017 & will need to be updated. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wa21vme1nz40p6p/AAAF0oiL_x569VeYwTkwezHCa?dl=0

  13. dude i don't know you... but i have read two post from you and quite frankly... you are a xxxx .... no one here asked you for anything - the least of which are your snide condescending replies. We are/were having a conversation amongst ourselves about potential ways to benchmark GPU performance. Everyone here knows that Mastercam does use CUDA cores... your not the only genius in the bunch buddy. I hope you dont talk to your customers like you talk to people here. if you actually have any i never expected you to post a file.. that comment (along with my popcorn) was simply bait to sit back and watch you make yourself look like what you actually are ....mission accomplished and "quite simply," im positive not every part you have ever done has: #1 - been ITAR #2 - been "confidential customer information" if it is, then you haven't been doing much. now back to the regularly scheduled programming....... for those that were interested... I'm drawing up a file for us to use for benchmark 3.0 that should stress the cpu a little more. I am going to use opti-rough in a few areas in ways that I know have been heavy on my past machines. I'll also work with the GPU a bit and see if I can find the areas that stress it the most.
