Guess that I spaced that CM. Sorry man.

Does anyone know of an archive of modeled up 40 or 50 taper holders. Preferebly Kennametal. Or...is there a way to kick out solids files of the holder models that are in the mcam library?
-
I tried the FTP but I cant get to it. Thanks for any help.
-
Yep! I need all the good carma that I can get. Thanks again.
-
And Credit goes to Crazy Millman for pointing me towards this solution. Thanks CM!

For anyone following this problem of mine...it looks like a 3D Finish Blend is the way to go. I suspect that I'll be using this approach pretty regularly for future mold detail work. Gave me exactly the toolpath that i was hoping for. ...
-
my best so far. looks pretty ugly. This is Hybrid using a previous operation as the stock.
-
Really? That would eliminate the best resource for information, communication, etc at just about every decent place ive worked. Sorry to hear that Leon.
-
thanks for the inspiration CM. I'm getting flustered here....
-
alright. $20 in someones paypal for a working tip for this problem? six pack of corona?
-
Did you take a look at the mcam file?
-
maybe I shouldnt even be messing with optirough? Any ideas? Anyone?
-
Yes I have. I really think that my problem is my lack of experience with Optirough and dynamic optirest. I just need some tips because I cant explain why I'm getting the results that I am. Like little patches of toolpath here and there...nothing that makes sense. The real bitch is how many times I've waited 20 minutes for it to crunch the toolpath and all i get is xxxx.

Any help is much appreciated, Again....I'm trying to understand optirough and its use in molds. I need to clean the rest of these faces with a .046 ballnose. RESTMILL PROBLEM.mcam
-
Ok. Give that a go. Please... RESTMILL PROBLEM.mcam
-
alright. i can make something else. standby
-
ok. so optirough does not like sharp corners i take it?
-
I cant upload the model for privacy issues. The iges surfaces come in clean. Whats the problem?
-
I'm trying to clean out corners of a mold thats a fan blade, with a .046" ball em. Everything I've tried..mostly optirough..just give me results that I cant explain. I dont know how the settings influence the resulting toolpath. I've got it finished otherwise. Can someone please take a look at this? IGES file attached. Thanks in advance, RESTMILL PROBLEM.igs

How to highlight an entity and see which toolpath its associated with?
danielm replied to danielm's topic in Industrial Forum
It solves my problem with when I delete something and get the warning that its associated with a solid, toolpath, or plane....I have no idea which of the three it is. If its associated with a toolpath, I'd rather not delete it versus if its a solid or plane as much. Neither approach is better than the other as i see it...just another tool. -

danielm replied to danielm's topic in Industrial Forum
I thought that it was CM. I wish that it was. It would be nice when the error that says the entity is associated with just this or that but tells me exactly where it is...which toolpath, solid, coordinate system..whatever. -
Is this still possible in 2018?
