The machine dosent have hsm option so when cutting from point to point I get a poor finish that is why I need to be able to filter.

I have posted with my tolerance at .0001 with filter off and there is no gouge. The only problem is I must slow down my feed at the machine or I will get a bad finish.

It is not in the machine 99% of the time my finishes are good. I usually set my filter at 2:1 total of .0002. This is a large gouge about .005. I am running SP2. This is just a ruled surface using two 180 arcs about 5" apart. My code should output all arcs.

I am having problems whenever I use the filter in 2D and on 3D toolpaths. I have downloaded the latest update. When doing a 2D contour on an L shaped part leaving .05 stock in the x/y the front side of the L had .05 stock on it the back side was cut at 0 stock. The blackplot showed the cutter leaving .05 but on verify only the front had the .05. If I take the filter off everything works. On 3D toolpaths I have had what sould be partical arcs turn into full arcs and gouge way into my parts. I have my filter set 2:1 .0002 total. If I turn the filter off everything cuts good but my program is to big. With my 3D program the backplot and verify both looked good.

I need help tweaking my hurco post. It worked fine in V9 but when I loaded the 9 post into X I started having trouble. There are extra sequence numbers on line 430 and at the end of the program line 720 & 730. This is just a quick sample It will do this with every program. % N100 G70 G75 G90 N110 G0 T235 M6 N120 G0 X.2708 Y.0938 N130 S2139 M3 N140 Z.6 N150 G1 Z0.

When using finish parallel or flowline I have noticed a rough finsh on some surfaces and not on others. It is almost like a small grove or gouge in the surface. I us cutting a U shaped surface.I think it has to do with my filter settings. I never had this problem in 9.

Thanks, works like it should now. Really appreciate the help from all. Nick

I think you maybe right Storkman. It is a Haas post that was updated from 9. This is a new problem that has potential to crash a tool . Had this problem in 9 before, but not involved in the change.Here is a copy of the post. ptlchg #Tool change pcuttype toolchng = one if mi1 = one, #Work coordinate system pcom_moveb c_mmlt #Multiple tool subprogram call ptoolcomment comment pcan pbld, n, *t, "M6", e pindex sav_absinc = absinc if mi1 > one, absinc = zero pcan1, pbld, n, *sgcode, *sgabsinc, pwcs, pfxout, pfyout, pcout, *speed, *spindle, pgear, strcantext, e pbld, n, "G43", *tlngno, pfzout, next_tool, e pbld, n, scoolant absinc = sav_absinc pcom_movea toolchng = zero c_msng #Single tool subprogram call

Why, when starting a new toolpath does the post start at the previous toolpaths last X,Y position then rapid to the new toolpaths position to start machining. Here is a sample. Would like line 250 to be the same as X,Y as line 280. Thanks, Nick % O0 (PROGRAM NAME - TEST ) N100 G20 N110 G0 G17 G40 G49 G80 G90 ( CENTER DRILL TOOL - 10 DIA.
