  1. I've got big future plans for some robotic wood milling not to mention a nonstop need for more guitars/amps.
  2. http://www.roboticsonline.com/public/artic...c_Deburring.pdf http://www.robots.com/applications.php?app=deburring If you're doing a fair amount of different part configurations, Robotmaster (cam software for robots) may save you a lot of time/headaches.
  3. so if you put (5/4)+1 it would work? since you all are using 64bit systems I'm wondering if it's either a storage issue of floating point values, or the calculation parameters itself
  4. For posterity's sake, could someone try a range of decimal values in a simple math equation, and see if any work? 1.1 +1-> x.x +1 ex.
  5. Trying to recreate your case, but: Check your Converter settings in Configuration - try checking "Use IGES file tolerances"
  6. Lee: I completely read his post wrong and carried over "programs" idea and "herky jerky motion" - Of course he's talking about the machine and not his program, thanks.
  7. The dimension multi-edit dialog box offers graphical example of what each parameter is changing to the dimensioning, leaving out the guess work and the need to regen what's in your graphical area when changing parameters until you hit apply - When clicking apply, the box minimizes and the changes become apparent.
  8. 10:14 Dell Precision M65 Intel T2500 @ 2.00GHz / 2MB cache 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM @667 MHz Quaddro FX 350FM 80 GB SATA @ 5400RPM XP PRO Also keep in mind that we don't all have fresh installs. Mine is pretty recent, and I have my laptop set up to crunch - Still don't think I should be smoking some of your workstations
  9. what kind of operations are you using?
  10. quote: I have one PC that will run V9 on Vista another that is a definate NO-GO. Tried all my trick and nothing. It opens and thats it DOA. Possibly a mouse conflict with the way V9 continualy parses the mouse for movement Version 9 may appear to start fine, although considering it is not compatible/supported with Vista, I would worry that functionality may be compromised, and you're better running it on XP, or using X
  11. Can you upload a Zip2go from both computers to the FTP so I can take a look?
  12. bad jokes aside - http://www.emastercam.com/cgi-bin/ultimate...t=017584#000002
  13. From my understanding the Quaddro 560fx has 128mb .. maybe it's the 570? I have a 7900 gt at home, and no complaints, however I believe the quaddro series makes better use of system resources in a workstation type processing environment
  14. I'll let users chime in here, but: I'm not sure Robot "Mating" is currently supported, we're still figuring out how robots mate in an industrial habitat /bad humor - (subject line)
  15. In the top lefthand corner of Verify Options, there's a section called "Shape", with radio buttons. Change this to File - It's easy to miss if this is the case
  16. Are the students all accessing a similar network resource?
  17. ball figure as in a sphere primitive or? Seems to be working fine for me, I'll play around with it at some point.
  18. I know this has been brought up in the past and again in another active thread. To do some processing time benchmarks. Anyone who is willing I have selected one of the default sample files. This is a default sample file but it is only there if you have installed the sample files from disk #2. Maybe someone can post it on the ftp? I have problems uploading. 1. Open: C:mcamxmcxmillsamplesinchhigh speedHST-CORE-HORIZONTAL-RASTER.MCX 2. There are three operations in this file, they all have the filter set to off, with a total tolerance of .001". 3. Set the Total Tolerance to .0001" on all three operations. 4. Select all 5. Regenerate 6. Please post: Time to process laptop/desktop CPU & speed Operation System RAM & RAM speed I think this will be a useful tool for those looking at purchasing a new workstation. Also, if you have a pc that is older please test this also, it will give an idea to others with similar configurations on how much time can be saved by getting a new pc (may help with justification for new pc?). Thank you
