  1. I'm trying to dupe this toolpath in Mastercam X8, as in the photo. The wall is at a 3 degree draft, so using a 3 DEG tapered ball nose EM to do the tapered wall and the radius. The toolpath was made in Camworks and I'm lost how to do this in MC. I want to do Z steps as well as X steps. I have a photo of the CamWorks toolpath adjustment page for Pencil Mill,,,It allows you to adjust both Z and in this case, X Thanks for any ideas.
  2. thank you very much as always for this great add on I remember that there was a file that explained all the tools and how to use them Does this still exist for the X8 tools?? thanks George
  3. Thanks for the help we will put it on the list to try
  4. Thank you sir I will try that The jerk motion happens when the tool lifts and moves to the start of another tool path..
  5. Yes, the jerk is between cuts as the tool re-positions
  6. When the X and y axis move to the next position for the next toolpath, the moves are very jerky, then the 5 axis moves become nice and smooth. It appears G94 has something to do with this. The machine is an older Haas VF3 with a new TR160 using MC X7 SP2. The cuts are both flow and Swarf. Line 1890 to 2620 runs fine than any XY or Z moves are jerky until line 2700 Guess maybe something in the post or a setting in the machine or controller settings in MC? HAAS stated this line should be a G93 not G94?? Pram 315 HSM is not installed on the VF3 ( the above sample is the same when ever the tool moves to the next toopath) Thanks for any ideas Please advise if any other info is needed thanks N1890 G93 X-3.9688 Y-4.0773 Z.4924 B-24.768 A8.466 F391.39 N1900 X-4.0066 Y-4.0075 Z.5045 B-23.881 A8.519 F391.39 N1910 X-4.0489 Y-3.8973 Z.5278 B-22.554 A8.574 F193.05 N1920 X-4.1054 Y-3.8019 Z.549 B-21.328 A8.552 F388.
