I had to jump in here. This is funny because last night on American Chopper show they showed Jim Quinn on the computer and he was using V9

Yes Sir, they are the best.

What I was looking for is maybe a parameter setting recommendation for the Mits control to allow it to use the same rigid tap code as the Fanuc post. We have created a custom drill cycle to cure this. Sorry I upset you so much. I will try to be more considerate in the future.

We have a OKK with a Mits Meldas 600 control, all of our other OKK have the Fanuc control. We use the same MPFAN post on all. The problem is the Mits will get an error if we use the Rigid Tap Cycle. If we manualy change the feedrate from F to a E it will work. Is there a work around where we do not have to edit the nc file?

Which Mach3 did you have to get? Digital or Analog. I might be interested in yours, my monitor is starting to fade. Sam

I had this happen repeatedly to me when we select new geometry and try to change the poc option not just copying. It works fine if I do not click the Apply Button

Thanks for the tip Bryan. Cimco Edit worked great. Sam

Thanks, I will try that. We were using the Legacy because it worked fine with X2

We have a post for a Prototrak MX3 that works fine in X2 MR2. It uses DOS communication with the box checked. When we updated it and tried to send it in X5 it will generate the same code but when the editor closes and the dos window appears it will close immediately without sending the file. We have checked all settings between X2 and X5 and they are the same. It will work perfectly in X2.

Yep, I get the same thing here.

What would be the best way to machine this T Slot? I have tried to use the Peel Mill but cannot get it to work.

How does the I7 processors rate with Mastercam?

Contact Axsys they are the reseller in MI. They made a custom gundrill cycle for us. Their phone number is 248 926-8810

I have a MX3 and it always used a .cam ext on 2D and .dnc with 3D but after downloading the newer software from their website it uses .nc ext. I also have to enable DOS to make it communicate with MCAM X
