Does anybody knows any advanced MasterCAM book for learning 3D programming?

Thank all of you very much! It works!

I got my post by simply copying of the *.pst file from directory POSTS of MasterCam version 9.1. This post is the special one for KOMO Router Machine we use.I guess I need to contact my reseller to obtain updated postprocessor for version X?

Hi, everybody, I try to use MasterCAM Router X after Version 9.1 and met following problem. Post processor for KOMO(MPKOMO-F.pst) gives canned cycle row as G98 G81 Z0. R0. F... . All jobs setting are correct, i.e. retract height is set as 4 mm absolute and the simulation shows correct Z-coordinate. The same post processor performs correct G-code at version 9.1(G98 G81 Z0. R4. F... ) Maybe, there is any flag or check I missed? Additional questions: I usually use 2.5mm straight bit milling tool to drill holes at some parts. V9.1 has no any negatives with it, but X thinks it's not correct to use milling tools at drill operations. Actually, it shows this at backplot. Does anybody know to fix?

What kind of router do you use? I work with KOMO. Actually, for contour cut I usually use 6mm 1 flute solid carbide strait cutter at 18000 rpm and 2000 mm/min. About cooling: of course, use air! Also use depth cuts, it may be good Jacob, Router programmer [email protected] - private [email protected] - work

If you con talk about Cimatron, why not SolidCam?

Let me ask - the problem occures during import toolpaths from library or coping within the same MC file?

Guys, what do you think about SolidCAM?
