    Ss321 can be cut like butter with a hot knife if you use the right tool with the right coating and the right cutting method Variable helix endmill and dynamic toolpath are your best friends in SS

    I have a K600 and i don't really have any problems running MC2017 and Solidworks but i dont program and desing really complex or big parts

    Set the plane to +D+Z
  4. Goldorak
    if you run solidworks, you definitively need a Quadro card, the gamers card simply can not handle assemblies with more than 200 parts (including bolts and nuts)

    i took specs from solidbox ans sent them to a little computer store next to our shop they quote me a custom build with the same specs or better for 2500$ less .....

    I have 16gb of ram and it's a minimum to run SW flawlessly And the quadro card handle multiple parts better, 100% of the ram is applied on the active part With my old g-force card the ram was splitted equally between opened parts, so if i had 4 pats i was only using 25% of my memory on active part

    this is why we use Enterprise PDM from Solidworks

    OSG exo tap A series are wonderful in hi-temp alloys like TI and inconel

    Ive found that Duct tape works better than masking tape it's thicker and the soft surface will protect the paint but yes this will be a PITA to do especially if the paint is thick and hard

    just write " M00 ( ***FLIP CLAMPS***) " in a manual entry set "as code" dont use any program stop in the Canned text of your previous operation, just add the manual entry where you want the machine to stop your code should look like this ..... N780 M09 N790 G00 G91 G28 Z0.0 N800 G00 G91 G28 Y0.0 N810 M00 (***FLIP CLAMPS***) (T20 = 1.25 DAPRA F-MILL ) N830 (ROUGH BOTTOM) N840 G00 G40 G80 G90 N850 T20 N860 M6 .....

    6 corners by insert

    the Seco rep came here yesterday with this new cutter , i can't wait to try it , the insert is way beefier than our mitsubishi ADX and tungalloy feed mills

    If it's a simple rectangular pocket without any 3d shape, a simple 2d pocket toolpath set to hi speed method will do approximately the same toolpath as HS area mill but with a much smaller G-code output

    Place the mouse in the OP manager and hit the "e" on the keyboard It cannot be simplier
  15. Goldorak
    i received the same workaround from IHS support
  16. Goldorak
    I want to know if i am the only one who get this bug in mastercam lathe if i create a stock model without any C-axis toolpath , everything work as it should if i took the same stock model but i include my C-axis cross drill, mastercam crash as soon as i hit the regen button MCAM2017 update 2
  17. Goldorak
    I installes the update 2 yesterday, it seems the this problem is gone
  18. Goldorak
    i have the same problem, each time i reopen a Lathe file, Mcam prompt me to create a C-axis drill operation il try to capture the problem
  19. Goldorak
    we have to replace 1 or 2 knob per year because the operators do this all the time lol
  20. Goldorak
    the F4 button gives you anything you need to know, plus if you select more than one entity you will get 2 big blue arrows at the top to toggle from one entity to an other
  21. Goldorak
    the 870 is way faster for a 24mm drill we run is a 1250 RPM ans 25IPM in 350WT and the insert lives forever
  22. Goldorak
    thanks a lot , now it works , the VFLTR value must be 0 it was set to 1 in my parameters
  23. Goldorak
    Okuma push it to the limit On our p300 we got the HSSC (harmonic spindle speed control) And the VSST (variable spindle speed threading) I have just to find how it works lol I follow the recepie provided by our reseller without success
  24. Goldorak
    Sumitomo HGS series I am currently drill some 9mm holes 30mm deep, 1800 rpm .007 ipm coolant thru The drill will certainly drill the 5000 parts without any problems
