Thank you for your time gents.
I do have Vericut for every machine that we have in the shop. With 5 axis work, we start with Solidworks which we have a Master file that has everything build in such as loading limit, machine travel, spindle......etc.
In recent year, I have a feeling that Mastercam just getting better, So may be it is time to give it a shot again. Moreover, it is more convenient if i can use Master cam machine simulation to verify my program then I dont have to go back and forth a lot between mastercam and Vericut.
Thank you Mr.
I knew that I will have a hint from you and it is just a matter of time.
The reason for doing this is I just want Master Cam Machine simulation get closer with reality which sometime will help me to verify the machine travel limit in X Y Z and
I already ran into a few parts that really pushing the machine window.
May be there is a easier way to get it done but I just dont know how.
Again thank you for your help.
Hi guys,
Right now , Mastercam machine simulator showed my machine home at center X0Y0 and acctualy my machine home position should be on upper right corner at X7.9 Y7.16535 from center.
Is there any way we can change it and How?
Thank you in advance.
Good morning Guys,
I would like to send my tool home in Z-axis and X Y to a fixed location (x-19.5 Y+11.5 and always calculate from center of my machine) before any rotation move.
Can any one give me a sample code for this in Heidenhain control.
Thank you in advance.
Thank you for the info. For sure I will look into it the future but now I have a task and I have to get it done asap....
I used to get a lot of helps from this forum... just wonder where all the macro's guru went...
Thank you very much for all the help guys.
I am going to use 5/8 EM 4F ( RobbJack XG-402-20) , 1800 RPM, 40 IPM, 1.0 LOC, .0375 (6%) step over.
Is it a good starting point for dynamic milling?
We have a job coming up and it is Titanium 6AL-4V.
I have never run into it before. So, I wonder, which method is the best way for roughing out all material.
Dynamic milling toolpath with end mill or High-feed milling insert?
Thanks in advance
Good morning all,
I would like to turn the coolant off permanently on tool 41 ( my probe).
Using X style coolant, MP master post as base.
Thanks in advance.
Hi DavidB,
Yes, we do have this option but we just dont know how to set it up for engraving serial numbers.
our machine control is Heidenhain ITNC 530.
Thanks for the reply.

Good morning Guys,
Have X7 sp1 installed and run into a little bit problem here.
Just wonder it is just me because i am missing something or some kind of bug.
I just can not verify my chamfer tool.
The graphic just give me a flat cut instead on angle cut.
