  1. J.Keilman,

     

    The way you it fine, but you need to know tool Dia. and don't have change to control Dia offset.

     

    I do similar idea with you, but I create a circle same as the finish diameter plus spiral with the correct step over and use contour with comp. = Wear and turn off " infinite look ahead ". You can use lead in/out if you want to.

  2. We did a lot of jobs same as you asking.

     

    What we do:

     

    Set up T/plane normal to line then Toolpaths > Circle paths > Circle toolpath pick a point. In Circmill parameter enter Dia in Circle Diameter box, Set the Depth = 0 and incremental

  3. Today I got crash on my computer, I test same file on the other 4 computers. the same problem occured.

     

    The file in ftp site MCX_files/4 AXIS TEST.MCX

     

    Part is a restangular block, just mill and drill four sides, using T/plane and C/plane with fixture offsets for each sides. when I open in McamX and go to File/New or click on icon New file, MasterCam crashing. " The memory could not be "read"

     

    The strange thing the file is fine, I can backplot, verify and out put NC files and keep go on..., no problem happen. It only crash when I hit Icon New

     

    Somebody Can dupplicate it?

     

    Use: X MR1/WinXp Sp2/Geforce FX 5700
