But one is also to ask if there will be any more updates like a patch or an MU3 for X7.
We are at the last stage of X7 so hopefully we may see something soon
Otherwise you will have a bit of a wait for X8
North America gives them 100 times more, then what (they)(insert country of choice here) steal.
Software is the most menial theft of them all because even a 6 yr old can
install utorrent and download ANY software they want, in ANY country,
including our own.
I don't use legacy paths that often.
Doesn't work as well as you think. I have tried to fix that as you state with
almost no difference and if you put 'keep tool down' with 100"s it basically
joins lines of path(using min distance, not vertical retract) in a non
efficient way.
when it wants to spike, it spikes and there isn't much of a quick setting
fix to alleviate them.
Its like when pencil paths that take 10mins to regenerate and they skip areas
of fillets that clearly they should not. You can spen 1/2hr regenning a few setting
tweaks then BAMMMMMM. a legacy path does it with out tweaking it.
(but you cant work while its crunching)............
Time is money
this is not a complex part
default settings unchanged accept I movee the speed slider all the way to the right
1st pic no accurate zoom
2nd pic with accurate zoom
not much difference, can anyone explain accurate zoom to me?
it chopped my block up???
I don't have that big of an issue with verify.
I don't get gouges that often, so I basically use verify to point out areas
that need more attention, or that I missed.
We are on MU2
I would think that X8 will be the savior if they indeed addressed this.
Try verifying a complex mold cavity with rest ruf, rest waterlines and pencil paths from
1" Ø ball to 1/32 Ø. I try to time, verify and lunch at the same time.
The trick is to program 2 jobs at once so you can keep the ball rolling
while waiting for an accurate verify. (remember to save each file often)
hmmmm, My hass high speed mills run at 200plus all day everyday with great accuracy.
my older vf6, bare bones only runs a max 120ipm because of the corner rounding issue.
I use hass also
Very common path and surface type here, working on something now.
(although I use flowline....)
Change the cut angle to 90, doesent look necessary to sweep the arc
IMO
