Hello folks.
does anyone have this nci problem with x9. if so please share some information.
This happen mostly in the multi axis contours, basically almost all the multi axis. esp when i use the transform to copy around. it says the nci calculating , and it is goes for ever, i mean if i have to leave it will take a month.
so i have to shut down mastercam and reopen it, and when it is open some of the icons on the contour shows locked. Now it is happening every time i want to generate a 5 axis, or do anything with it. my boss stop the maintenance this year i was hoping i will update to m2017.and the problem will go away.
didn't have this problem in x8 or before.
Please if anybody had this before and know what to do . let me know.
it is getting very frustrated, when u work for 30 minutes and you forget to save, and boom this happen and i had to close MasterCard and reopen it, lose the work , and than again and again.
HI all
x9 transform posting is so slow, when using nci. it takes for ever, every time it happen need to shut mastercam and restart again, and even that don't solve the problem, need to use geometry in the transform to get it,
does any one have this problem. or is there a work around it.?
Thanks
John
Hi all
Does anybody know why the solid for hass trunnion tables that come with mastercam for the 5 axis machines is not solid anymore, it rather mesh like STL, if so can it be fix please
thanks in advance.
Sincerly
John
what i have right now is this
( primary B rotatry)
rotaxis1$=vecy # zero
rotdir1$= -vecx # direction
( secondary A tilt)
rotaxis2$=vecz # zero
rotdir2$=vecy # direction
that's work fine for the table sit parallel with the X axis, but the new machine, the table sit parallel with the y AXIS
should i leave the primary B alone and try to change the secondary direction only
HI all
My boss just bought Haasvf3syy with tr60y turnion table,. The table sit parallel with the y axis, i have tried to modified the 5 axis that come with mastercam, but no success,
if any has this table with the configuration i would predicate any help
sincerly
John
K2csq7 they way u mirror u surfaces made the swarf confused, directions wise, you went from climb to conventional if you changed to conventional it will work fine, i would try to mirror the tool path instead,
i would rough it out an leave .01 and heat treated and comes again and finish it. it is too hard to mill at the hardness. well for now u need some special tools
thanks newbee, but honestly if you have the new stuff in mcx7, it wouldn't be that hard to program. i have done this in the old swarf, and it was a mess,but the new, im very impress with it.
