mold100, I guess if you add Russian guys else You soon change not only metric units but English from Nigniy Novgorod

Hi anybody, When I look up mpfan post I see ctol : 225 What is a variable, when it work and what the best value? why it is not for example 180, 181 deg. and so on?

Hi Jim, I sent you my post Hope you got it

I am working with Robofil440 from june 2001 and wire8.1.1 If I could I try to help you.

Cadcam told about: It is on the FTP under Wire. Have a good weekend Jay (cadcam) ----------------------------------------------- Original name was R2464_W.mc8 or R2464_W.zip I did not see from my place. I sent same to CNC but all keep silence Why?

************************************************** I try to put work coordinate from upper right corner of sections ************************************************ Sorry for mistakes I use upper left corner of sections

Hi everybody, Did anybody trouble with change coordinate STCW with wire couture operations. I created same contours for profile but in different position then I tried exchange STCW and I cannot got good results. I try to put work coordinate from upper right corner of sections. I still can not see ftp.I send it to cadcam for put to ftp I use this file both for mill and wire. When I change tools origin in mill I have not any problems. I convert it from dwg to mc8 and use mill8.1.1 and wire8.1.1 If I use save some and save only couture profiles I have not got good results yet. I suppose that problem in database of file but don't know how to clean it Now I solved it: convert mc8 to dxf then dxf to mc8 again After that STCW change coordinate without problem. If it bug then guys from CNC work for enhancement If you can help I'll be appreciated. BTW why WCS in MC9 don't work with wire For example if I have solid model and need to do wire operation from other plane then top I must to do some translation. But then I read post processor manual I see no restriction for wire in NCI G code 1014 Can I solve it with help tune post. Thank you in advance Alexander

I thought about it for my same purpose before After some speculation I suppose guys from CNC wish that customers play at keyboard sometimes like at piano and don't sleep and work in one click mouse.

Thank you guys for great help Better a friend in court than penny in purse

Recently we solved it with service engineering from www.autoform.de

Hi everybody, Have anybody postprocessor for gas cutting machines in ESSI format If Yes what about share for learning.

I am with you Quickmike will be interesting know me too. BTW did anybody play with machining in compare leftover hybrid and rest mill for example 3D machining of cavity with fillet in corners. What better to use for such tasks. Alexander

Hi guys, When you use BTW as by the way I understand it. But what mean IMHO and other abbreviations?

BTW Why Wire V9 does not suppot WCS?

Hi everybody, Always interesting to know about interesting ideas Sometimes for special purpose we use VMC Cincinnati as lathe machine without any problems because have not CNC lathe machine at our tool shop. Will interesting to know have anybody experience to use mill machines for grinding, for slotting or other not typical process. And what problems appear with it.

Try it www.matls.com I sometimes visit there

Hi, I had the same when start to work with A2100 control with 3D machining. I simple put sgplane as mentioned Russell to pzrapid # Linear movement in Z axis only - at rapid feedrate n, sgcode, sgplane, z because I use nobrk: no at any movement between points for tool change will switch plane from G18 or G19 to G17

Try to use additional pocket operation for clean bottom with appropriate cut depths and stock

Personally to me I think this question need in research from machines producer because they have laboratory and machine application engineers I asked machine builder from Cincinnati to test Highfeed option vs. acc/deceleration that have Sabre1000 and give a conclusion worth it candle or not. But they keep silence as diver.

You can try software from www.radmin.com if your machines under WindowsNT. You will see all machines at own desktop like Lord. You need only some angels who will put tools in drum and press start cycle. It's possible to use even from bed. You will have one big problem only hips growth

Thanks Glenn, It's all I need

Alan, I work with V8.1.1

I think you did not right understand me. I am looking for method of control in post for lead-in&lead-out but for simple 2D contour toolpath in 2D plane. 5-axis mentioned only as example and for match. I need put code just before tool lead-out from contour for gas cutting machine with Burny10 control.

Hi all, I find out there is control for 5 axis move lead-in&lead-out in post: for G11 pmx1&pmx2 Do you know something for 2D contour

I had the same with chamfer mill as 45° D35.1mm and tip 20mm. It's appear when I do: job setup then import from file. After some mistakes at parts I always check this type of mill. Cadcam, by the way I cannot reach your ftp in spite of upgrade IE5.5 to IE6 and try to use cute FTP4.0 could you send me file Shark.zip for learn.
