generaly thompson shafting have a thick chrome layer the first cut must be under this layer after it's like 4140ht thomson shafting is noting compare to flame cut stellite!! 5sfm and the chip is red hot

i dont have solids yet!! i use surfaces and i save it in .stl then i use it for my stock setup generaly it works great

so i dont tink is a configuration problem!! maybe is due to the fact that i dont have sloids!!

tanks gcode, i change all my folders i remake a new .stl file but i still had a waterfall in verify this one is perfect (no sphere)

quote: This Service Pack contains a number of updates and bug fixes including: * Verify "waterfall" problems. dont work when i make a .stl file from a sphere surface i got this!!!! but the solid in stock set set-up is ok i use X2_MR1_SP1 level 1

tanks Crazy^Millman

downloaded and installed!! it is possible to have a list of what have been fixed with SP1????

for 10000+ post.... post xxxxes!!! mister post-a-lot or i have noting better to do at work!!

your ramp in and ramp out must be over 50% and lenght also must be over 50% okuma dont leave you a chance for radius .0001 off and you got a cutter comp. alarm!

quote: n the verify window, click on "configure", (the folder with the red exclamation point) then select "solid" under shape and click th arrow to select the solid to use as stock. you have to select "file" not "solid" to load a .stl file

yep! u can use the swept 2d toolpath u can create any simple profile with it!!

I have lost the book we had around here with info on it.. I also have a 1.5 inch iscar feedmill with 4 inserts in it.. just trying to fins specs for IPM,RPM and depth of cut.. thanks.. i use 2in feed mill with 4 inserts (gr ic928) .035 deep 375ipm 1500rpm full cut (ramping) in 4340ht i have a okuma mc-v4020B w cat50 and 20h and NEVER change direction without a radius of less than .125

hi iscar provide me a book with all theese formulas chip load thinning factor HP consumption it's the "iscar IN dustry machining training package" it's very usefull !!! i had this when i bought the feed mill (for hi speed machining that's the tool!!!)

i have this problem too it seems that the selection button hide someting in the "axis" box

i made a small searh on the forum and i found noting about my problem i always ad an "evil box" that box change places every time i open the stock set up dialog box i use X2 MR1 clic to enlarge (look in the oval!!)

rotate in side view it will rotate about the X axis then the top view will show the side of your part!

use x-form rotate!! rotate the draw not the UCS!!

^x2 why don't make small rad like .005 to .01 larger than tool radius it will make a big difference and the tool don't make a big skweek noise when cornering!!

tanks Karen i found it after!!!

tanks Eric its work now!!! i will sleep less dumb tonite
