  1. Picture didn't show here it is
  2. I am seting up one of these tools, and I am curios how you program for it. Do I program the same as for a vertical tool and modify the code to put it at a 45? -EDIT- I am working on a mill/turn
  3. Am I the only one with this issue??
  4. I am having problems with the Axis combo selection working for my mill/turn. I select Right upper for both the tool and toolpath, and it will usually post out incorrect unless I re-click on the Axis combo again (which dirtys the op even though it was already selected) and regen. Anyone else having this happen?
  5. Right click in the ops Manager, select Import, and find the file you want, select the ops, and Green Check. Done
  6. Didn't migrate when I installed
  7. I haven't uninstalled any versions on my computer. I still have X3 loaded.
  8. It crashes, but the updated files are there
  9. Has anyone had any issues updating there machine control and def. files?? Mine is crashing every time when I try to update!
  10. I think I got it! in the rotation type changed to Y-axis from no rotation!!
  11. quote: that you udated your planes in Parameters? In the toolpath parameters? Yes. Wcs=Top/Tool plane & comp plane=New plane I use planes on all my parts without issue, but not on the face.
  12. I just tried it in the Right plane and main spindle. I cannot get it to post any different there either. I put a file on the ftp in the X4 files called C_axis_test.
  13. I had them as that and tried the new rotated plane as well. Same g-code
  14. I am working on a mill/turn and on my sub-spindle I have some holes to mill on the face (left view). I want to position the C-axis at a different position than the left plane does. ( the geo is on the lower end of the part and I do not have enough travel) I tried "rotate planes" and rotated the Left plane 180 around Z, but the posted code is the same Any help? Thanks
  15. Take a look at the Benchmark topic Here
  16. Nope, not that I know of, also if you copy and paste an op it will go back to left
  17. Thats just it, it was copied geometry that was not used in anything! It was a copy of geo tied to planes, none of which are used for lathe
  18. I have an X4 file with many lathe and mill toolpaths, when I copied a level (with geometry for creating planes) and rotated the geometry all the lathe ops needed to regen. Whats up with that?? Edit When I regenerated the file (using Regenerate all Dirty ops) all the High Speed mill toolpaths that didn't have the red X also regenerated [ 07-06-2009, 09:33 AM: Message edited by: Mr. M ]
