thanks for the help i found the button

Tool speed and feeds will not change when i change tools is there a setting for this and where can io find it

we usually program in the "z" axis and turn on a 3D rotation but machine 3d isnt working on this machine. I can get it to work in master cam (pecking and thread milling in the "y" axis but code is working in the "z"axis

Working on a horizontal barmill with a Heidenhian controler. Need to prgram some threadmilling on the top of the part with a right angle head and 3d rotation doesnt work. what do change to work in the "Y" axis. Never needed to use this and master cam school was a loooong time ago. Any help would be appreciated

im looking for a tool path to step off a .38 radius with the backside of a staggertooth with 1/8" radius inserts. I need a tool path that will step off with a variable depths for a good finish.

ok o.c.d. kicked in and had to go back and play around with it and found out that it works with the "quick verify" in back plot

I am using a C-axis drill. I have the tool rotating around the part to verify location. Was just trying to get the part to rotate. No luck with that but was able to get the program finished

the box is checked but part not rotating and I am using an imported solid don't know if that has anything to do with it

I am programming a VTL with live tooling for drilling and can not get the part to rotate to each hole so I cam make sure they are in the correct location. I know its just a click of a button but can not find it, can anyone help?

Thanks for the help ill have to give it a try

thanks Serenity, that is what I did first and that's where the problem started when I rotated the STL to the 2nd side and now it does not show material being removed

I am machining a tube that will have 3 sides. I saved my STL file, rotated it and want use it in 2nd program to make sure I removed all stock, but it does not show the stock being removed. I can use it as a visual reference, but is there any way to use my saved STL in verify and actually see the stock being removed

Bruce, turned off one screen & the bock plot dialog box poped up, now i just hope that it doesnt go away when i turn it on thanks

my OP is always open

Can not find the back plot dialog box, i was using it yesterday, is there any way to turn it off & on or did i lose it on my screen somewhere?
