  1. I am using a AMERA SEIKI TC-1L post, where are the settings for the spindle? In the parameters I have feeds and speed defalts set per tool. As this is not a big deal at all, I have just been editing the prog. but if I can fix it that would be nice.
  2. X2 MR2 Lathe I am fairly new to mc, my question is after I post the program on the editor screen I get a G99 on the first opp. and a G99 on the last opp. Also there is no M3 in other misc. opps. Is this a post issue or is there a setting that needs changed. Thanks
  3. Thanks Crazy, That sounds easy enough.
  4. Thanks Dave, You gave me the right answer Dave, Thanks We do some crazy undercuts and face profiles, out of the box cant produce.
  5. Thanks John, I have taken classes and it was all out of box tooling in the class. That is what I am use too, but this is a new job and they use custom tooling. Dont think I need a class when someone like you could answer my question. Yes or No can you custom draw your tools on X lathe?
  6. Hey guys, I am using XLathe, and while on the subject I use kennamet tool library the most and use a lot of custom ground c2 tools in the machine. Is there a way on lathe to draw up my own tools insted of modifying the inserts and holders? We do a lot of face and small id work. Thanks,Paul
  7. We are being pushed to get a job done, and I have a job on one lathe and want to set-up a differant lathe with the same program from mastercam. I have heard that this is very easy but have never done it. machines have differant post. Thanks,Paul
  8. I dont think the post is set up that way, but I may be wrong. By the way, how do you access the post on X?
  9. After finishing a toolpath it sometimes and only sometimes wont let you change a tool rad. without a collision. I do this a lot because we use a lot of custom ground c2. Thanks Paul
  10. Also, I have the auto save set at 5min. How do you access the auto save to retreeve a lost file.
  11. Pete, I think I sent it to you. I did reproduced it and in the parameters I had the tool comp. set on right when it should have been left, I clicked the green arrow and got kicked out. Thanks Paul
  12. Im using X lathe, and if make an error in a toolpath, Mastercam shuts down all the way instead of warning me or having a wreck. Is this normal or can I fix it?
  13. Thanks everyone, I will logon at another time with more detailed info with the trouble I am having. Just was not sure if it was normal to update or patch wright off the bat, and the maintenance has expired.
  14. The company I am working for has both 9 and X lathe, the guys have been working on 9 and I am the only one using X since they installed it. My question, is there any updates or patches I should know about? I have noticed some minor glitches, but dont know how to fix them.
