I was running .0001 FPT. 32000 rpm at 12 ipm. 83 sfm. .0004 step It didnt last for beans

Has anybody used a .010 diameter cutter in hardend steel (55/60 RC), and if so do you have any pointers? Im not having very good luck

What type of application are we talking about?

When you say ripple effect of the toolpath do you mean faceting? and if so, how did you do it...thanks

It seems the only way I can get the faceting out is by using 2d swept but I cant use 2d swept for most parts.

Were cutting endforms, trying to eliminate EDM

Actually, is anybody using Mastercam X3 for hard milling applications?

My dealer claims that they are fixing this problem

Hi John, I cant ftp is there another way I can send you the file? Thanks John Jr.

Hi John, it is doing alot of G1's

Thanks guys, I have tried adjusting all the tolereance's and still have the same result..

Hello, does anybody know how to eliminate the faceting on a revolved solid model? When I create a model it looks clean and pure on the screen, but when I cut a part it has faceting on it, when I print the model on the printer it shows the same faceting as the cut part but on the screen it looks very smooth and clean. Any advice? thank you
