  1. The Mill-Turn post uses the structured code which is a bit to rap your head around. When you upload the code on the machine the machine should have individual files for each operation/sub program. I'm probably getting the terminology wrong here. Its been a while since I've programmed one of these machines. The last time I was onsite with this machine (beginning of 2020) the DMG tech gave the reasoning for the sub programs on the control being their own file and it made sense at the time. I cant remember exactly what he said though so I apologize. This is a really neat machine I think you will like it once you figure out how it runs but that learning curve is steep compared with other machines. There are not many people who have this machine so its tough to get information about how other people are running it. I'm pretty sure it accepts non structured (ISO) code as well but the techs prefer the structure code so its best to stick with what they prefer.
  2. @amwOur free IKE posts do not support RAH heads out of the box. If you want a quote please reach out to your Mastercam reseller for one.
  3. In-House Solutions sets up their posts with an Axis combination for RAH support. If you got the post from another developer they might do it differently (misc. value perhaps)? The post has the kinematics in it so adding an aggregate to your tool page wont work. As said above you need likely need to add logic to the post to support RAH. @amwno Mill Default and mpmaster do not support RAH's
  4. I worked with a local customer who had this machine and the Mill-Turn product. The structure code is very different from .mpf Siemens code. Once you get things figured out with the machine/programming the structure code benefits are large. Its definitely a learning curve though. Good luck and have fun learning the machine/code.
  5. If you purchased the post the company that wrote the post should have a backup copy of the post. If you know who your purchased the post from you should be able to reach out and get your copy back. You could try mpmaster there is a HMC machine def included in the files. If you try that post WCS should equal TOP and tool/Cplane would be FRONT, RIGHT, BACK or LEFT for the primary planes.
  6. @dhamatharan please see the eMastercam Forum Rules & Guidelines here: https://www.emastercam.com/forum-pages/forum-guidelines/ If you want to contact a Mastercam reseller to get a license of the software you can locate a reseller here: https://www.mastercam.com/find-a-reseller/
  7. Does the software start? I think that's just showing you the license is enabled. If the software starts I'd just close the window and keep on going.
  8. Its likely due to the way the collision checking is setup or how machine features were setup in your models. I'm thinking the sheet metal should be part of the machine housing?
  9. Can you put the Mastercam file up here. If you do that I'm sure someone will remove the old stock for you.
  10. What happened to the emoticons!?! emoticons are still there you just need to hover over the trophy to see them.
  11. Check out the benchmark thread Benchmark 3.0. A lot of the guys will post the computer specs here.
  12. Looks like I miss understood the question. I thought they were trying to pull the NC file name into the report. I did a search around and cant find anyways to change the file name when you save. Perhaps someone at CNC Software could provide some input here. I doubt this is the first request they've received asking this questions.
  13. If you click on the Help button and see the Setup Sheet XML Outline and Tag Glossary Overview. This will tell you what tags are available to have the information pulled into the setup sheet.
  14. You can change the line width of the surface UV Lines or the Surface density. Select the part or surface press F4 and change the line width or surface density.
  15. Loft requires 2 chains. One at the bottom and one at the top. I would offset the 1 chain (top) to be smaller then the bottom chain. Make sure you select the same start point on both chains otherwise you will get a surprise when it creates the model.
