  1. I added a reply in the other thread you started last week.
  2. Hopefully she has had other work to do while waiting for almost 9 years for an answer!!!
  3. I am an educational user so you can't use my files!! See the link to a video of how to do it. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zsgue6gtn4ab9v8/Surface_Solid.mp4?dl=0
  4. You have some untrimmed geometry on level 3. I can get it to create the body if I partial chain the profile without the center red line. I did a revolved surface and created a solid from the revolved surface. Then did a Boolean remove.
  5. Check your stock to leave on floors and walls settings in the Model Geometry section (where you select your geometry initially).
  6. With "Control" compensation the control on the machine offsets the amount for the tool diameter or radius, so the code coming out will be calculated at the actual dimension you are trying to cut. Use "Wear" and you can adjust the wear values on your machine to get the correct size.
  7. One example is a B axis and one is an A axis. You need to post a valid Mastercam ziptogo file and state the Machine you are trying to setup. This is posted in the wrong forum as well.
  8. If it is encrypted you will likely have to pay the company that supplied the Post through your re-seller.
  9. I am old school so I use wireframe for most toolpaths.
  10. A comparison at the bottom of their website. https://www.inhousesolutions.com/products/ike-post-processor/
  11. Possibly a new function could be added for your request. The method with X through it allows you to modify the geometry and attributes, this is quite handy!
  12. You were clear, just wanted some expert advise on it!!!!!!
  13. @Aaron Eberhard Can you do this just in the Control Definition by checking the "Covert rapid to maximum feedrate" in the Feed area? Then set the max feedrate in the Machine Definition. Or does it need to be done in the post?
  14. Check your control definition settings.
  15. Try reducing the semi-finish to 1 cut at 0.01" or 2 cuts at 0.01"
  16. Removed my response. Jake L nailed it below!
  17. In-House has also released their training materials for free, you could try and look at that. A class as Aaron is suggesting is the best option as you can ask live questions and most likely would get future support.
  18. I made a video of how I would do the solid model. Many different ways to do it as the others have talked about. https://www.dropbox.com/s/nls8xuj18adunh0/Solid.mp4?dl=0
  19. Sorry I miss read your initial post!!!
  20. Starting with round stock cut into discs? You will need to create a second operation to mill the slot. If you can use a 5c collet to grab it on the 0.9 diameter. How it is being held will impact on how aggressive you can cut that slot.
  21. It depends on a few things such as make and model of machine or machines you are going to use, type of tooling available and the material you are cutting.
