I've been looking for a 10 deg per side tapered end mill with 3/32 tip . The high feed variety. Does someone make these . I have not been able to find one . Thanks

I have job with a bunch of German print details. The prints contain a lot of notes in German .Has anyone ever tried one of those photo translator apps If so what one do you recommend for a I phone. Thank you.

Thanks , I'll take a look. The code still looked good and it posted after closing the error box.

I'm getting a msg. when posting(error post rotary axis assignment rot_on_x disable) . just a standard post for okuma 3 axis mill. If I switch to my makino 3 axis post I don't get the error. Its just with the 5 axis toolpath forced to 3 axis output ? Not sure what to look for ?

How do I force tool to start at top of surface in the morph BTC tool path. Instead of dropping down half the radius of my ball end mill? Thanks

Can someone with access delete my attachments . At this point you can purge them all. I would like to be able to post new content but the site is not letting me. I don't won't to make a new account and lose all my posts . I' m getting a error that permits me from deleting the old attachments. This has been frustrating that no one can seem to figure this out.

4th axis maximum angle step 3 point tool to rotary axis 5th axis locked at angle (0)

Its a surface tool path wrapping around od of part. I want to force the Y not move.

I'm using a rotary toolpath (triangular mesh) I get the Y axis outputting a .0001 move at random spots I the program. Is ther a way to force the Y to stay on center (Y0.000). This is a c-axis lathe post . Thanks

I'm using triangular rotary mesh and the toolpath wants tool rool over edge at end of part . How do I prevent this. I;ve tried check surfaces etc.?
