  1. Complete uninstall, then reinstall reccommended?
  2. Did that work? I wanted to do this since x-style coolant came out, but was under the impression it couldn't be done.
  3. Anyone else have this issue? Still can't figure it out.
  4. Yep. I seem to remember the same thing happening when installing X5, but I can't recall what I did to fix it.
  5. It works fine from within mastercam if you use the open/edit external...not sure why this happens.
  6. Is there a way to edit/carry over the settings inside the cimco editor? Whenever I update to a new version of mastercam, the settings inside the cimco editor alwats revert back to the default. Also, inside windows explorer, it seems that the default program to open files reverts back to notepad or wordpad. When I try to make the default program be the cimco.exe file, it seems like it doesn't stick and it doesn't show up in the other programs area when opening a file.
  7. Definitely threadmill. If you are using a tapered reamer beforehand, describe it as a tapered endmill with the proper dimensions in mastercam and works pretty well.
  8. Anyone here program sheet metal machines like cnc punches and lasers? What software do you use? What software is out there? Pros and cons on any that you know about?
  9. 0-5 is G54-G59 not 0-6 6 is G54.1 P1 7 = G54.1 P2 8 = G54.1 P3 etc. etc.
  10. Pretty sure you can't undo it. You could look at the timestamps to determine if there is a certain time after which you last read some posts.
  11. I've used all of the above, and unless it's customer specific, I've had a lot of success with a centerdrill.
  12. Does the button go down in the area for receiving the pallet?
  13. Advanced Preview Look-ahead - G08 P1(on) G08 P0(off) Artificial Intelligence Contour Control - G05.1 Q1(on) G05.1 Q0(off) High Precision Contour Control - G05 P10000(on) G05 P0(off)
  14. It depends on the quantity that you get, but it's pry somewhere around $5-$6/pc. for a 50 pc. order. Check with your local supplier.
  15. Config. -> files -> mastercam current version parts
  16. I've gotten it. Can't figure out why yet.
  17. What type of machine?
  18. Where is the burr forming? Can it be taken care in the machine?
  19. I match up to the criteria almost perfectly. Other than Okuma experience and the degree...which I'm in the middle of now, so moving while finishing the degree doesn't work for me. And I'm not really sure if I have any interest in the geographical location.
