Hi all, Thank you so much for your many replies!!!! I´ll try all that. I also want to say that the MPMaster works like a charm, the problem comes when using MPFan Post. I´m in metric. It´s solved for me thank you all again!!!

Hi all, I´ve got a problem here. In the programm below everything is shown fine in Cimco backplot also in the machine simulation. When I start the cycle the machine cuts through the part. This shouldn´t happen. Is there a parameter to change in the control? Thanks in advance for your help! G00 X-161.566 Y-34.463 Z0 N8770 G1 X-50.7 N8780 G3 X-49.384 Y-33.147 I0.

hi all, after updating the my post from X4MU3 to X5 I recive this massage: RUN TIME - Access attempted on buffer that is not defined. Buffer number: 4 I´m sure i did the update in the right way, any ideas?

Me too please.

Somethinng new about that?

Hi all, Does anybody of the fanuc gurus knows if it´s possible to have alle 5axis work simultaneously in a programm. It works well with G00 but not in blocks with G01- otputs an error.

I also tried on my XP 64bit. Doesn´t work at all!

hi, Thanks Mr. Bell sir, works perfect! Problem solved.

Hi all, No chance to get it installed on XP 64bit. Is there any other installation file available (iso or something....). Maybe anybody else has an idea how to get this work on a 64bit XP. This ist the first time we have trouble with installshield files. Plz help I want to get this to work on my PRECISION. Thanks in advance.

Hi, It doesn´t even come to the "setup dialogue". klickin´ on "mastercamx4-web.exe" 1.extracting mastercam X4.msi 2.decompressing mastercam x4.msi 3.extracing ISS Setup.dll 4.decompressing ISS Setup.dll then the error message comes. I tried it also on a fresh 64bit installation, no firewall, no antivirus, all updates.

I tried both - no way to get installed. I have Outpost Security Pro installed on that Notebook (M6400). Any other ideas?

hi all, Me to, downloaded it three times. Works fine on any 32 bit. Not on XP 64 bit. Got the same error number.

did you had the same problem? I don´t think it has something to do with the feedrates. Any other ideas how to get away the double G02/G03? Thanks

sorry, it´s not a hurco post it´s an old MPMaster which we modified for a hurco machine. we never edited the post in the last time, it has something to do with X3MU1. I know something like that has been covered some time ago, I just couldn´t find.

hello all, I´m getin´ s trange arc output in X3Mu1. The code looks like this: G02 x123 y123 G02 I123 K123 As you can see the G02 is twice in there. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

Could you please explain how you do that in a few steps? I can´t figure out how on a FANUC 18i. We do have Manual Guide i on it.

Thank you for this tip. BTW Does anybody knows if it´s possible to edit programs on the data server directly?

Hello all, I played around with the new hst toolpaths in X3 and have some questions: is there no button to smooth the moves in "2d blend mill" Original (sharp moves): Modified (smoothed): also I noticed a high tool load when the cutter does full cuts in "2d core mill", I think it should be like some kind of spiral move: the peel mill toolpath is great, I almost can control anything: what do you think about that? or am I missing anything?

and again S4A solves the prob. thanks a lot!!! that was exactly what I was looking for.

maybe, I really have no Idea how to do this. You know there are two solutions: x-100 c180 and B-2. If I could make it to get x+100 C0 and B+2, that would be great. both solutions would work but as I said before the first one overtravels the X+ direction on the machine. any (good) ideas?

hello all, does anybody know how to select the desired direction on a table/table machine? The machine would overtravel the X axis (X100. Y0. Z0. C180.B-2) If I could get this (X-100. Y0. Z0. C180. B2)it wouldn´t overtravel the X+ direction. I played around with the Axis limit´s in fanuc gen 5x post, an it post good, but is there an easier way to change the directions of the rotary axis on the fly?

hello all, it´s me again and my lathe post problems. does anybody knows how to add this to mplmaster: M09 G28 U0 V0 G30 W0 M01 I need the G30 after the G28. thanks in advance.
