I use the old style toolpaths while the other programmer in our mold shop uses all the new high speed routines. I routinely whup him for speed. I got over burning up cutters long ago. Run 'em hard, change 'em out, then send 'em out to resharp. Turning all of your rapid moves into feed moves and retracting dangerously close to your workpieces hasn't been a winner in our shop. Someday I'm going to put more effort into trying them myself and I'd wager I'll whup him some more. Really more about you and how you use these strategies than the strategies themselves.

Not sure what I did, but I've recently switched computers and all of a sudden when I create a Center Point Arc, MasterCAM is now actually creating a point at the center of the arc instead of just the arc. Could anyone point me in the direction of how to change this back? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!!

Thanks for the reply David, but I already have that setting turned off. I believe that refers to the graphical point in the center of an arc. Somehow mine is actually creating a "Point" just like you would with Point Position at the center of the arc.
