My customer has a budget of about $3000. It has to be able to calculate mass and volumn. Will Mastercam demo do that?
-
My customer has come to me for advise. He wants to find a software package that does some specific things. He wants to be able to view all the major cad files (shaded models and 2d drawings)and to be able to calculate mass and volume of 3d models. I know Mastercam can do all that. But he will not be doing any machining. So maybe there are some non machining packages that will do what he needs. Any advise?

NEWS FLASH. The mysterious fish smell has been identified.

OUCH!! I felt that!

Glad I could help. I've been helped many times from this forum, time to give some back.

I uploaded JAW_1IN ALUM-toolpath.mc9. Toolpaths that would make your parts. It may not be the most efficient. But it will make your part. I program from a Moldmakers perspective not production.

I uploaded to the FTP site in the MC9 folder, Harleygirl2.zip. Some of you might enjoy it.

Thats funny! And fair and Balanced. It takes jabs at both sides.

I have an R rated Mastercam file that I would be willing to share. Can I put it on the FTP site?

I've done several woodworking projects using a CNC. It kind a feels like cheating, not using hand tools. But I enjoy it just the same, making something out of wood.

Car or Truck Rim Blank
Leehound replied to Tim Aydt Prototek Engineering's topic in Industrial Forum
I seen on shows like American HotRod, they were cutting just a rim center. How are those centers attached to the rims? Is it possible to just buy rim blanks and cut and attach the centers yourself? -
Do any of you know what your companies are paying per pound for 7075?

I just wanted to clarify. Thanks

---------------------------------- you can not have a 2d profile. ---------------------------------- When you say you cannot have a 2d profile, do you mean any 2d chain? I just used this function, and I used only 2d chains and was able to get a pocket with island facing. To get it to work, I had to make sure the island chain was at the correct depth in relation with my pocket.
-
I tried to thicken your part but was not able to. I even tried converting it into surfaces, then removing all holes and slots, then back into a sheet solid, then thicken. Mastercam just hangs and does nothing. Sorry
-
Make sure your island chain is at a z depth that is below the top of your stock and above your pocket depth.

Changing computers is diffenitly a pain in the arse! But I am really looking forward to the new power, P4 3.4 ghz 1 gig of ram Quadro FX-500 & a 19" LCD

If I copy the .cfg file and Mastercam is installed on a differnt directory than the old computer, that might cause me some problems? It might be better just to reconfigure on the new system. Agree? Thanks!

I am moving Mastercam to a new computer. Just got a Dell Workstation 360. What is the best way to transfer all my settings? Thanks in advance!

While I said export, I really meant IMPORT. If I start to get this file type on a regular basis, I will bite the bullet and pay for it. Cad/Cam Soulutions is my dealer, but someone has offered to import them for me.

Would it be inappropriate to ask the forum members for help in exporting a STEP file? I know that the ability to read STEP files is a paid for add-on. We don't get enough of this file type to make worth paying for that option.
