newchsmcam, add a lead in/lead out. Jg

Thanks John, I going to try to move them to a postblock. thanks again, Jg
-
Hi All, Is it possible (if so, how) to change the value of a variable that was defined in a global formula before posting to a new value during posting? thanks, Jg
-
thanks for the info Dave, I thought thats how it would wnd up. Jg

Hi All, When doing 3+2 planar geometry I use curve 5ax with a line to describe the rotations, this gives me line segments for output, If I use a arc to describe the rotations (Tplane) and use contour I get arc output. Is there a way to get arc output using the first method? at times there can be hundreds of circles to contour and the first selection method is much easier. thanks, Jg

Anyone try the gear puzzle at Dr Gears' website the John posted above? Jg

quote: is there a general "rule of thumb" I can look up? If you are refering to "[ ]", every "[" needs a "]", also if you are not doing so Indent all of your "[" a few spaces, then when you close them, line it up vertically, it will make it much easier to follow, I have to do that plus add extra blank lines so all the "logic" looks kinda like a arrow pointing to the right, even then I usually end up with a headache and mumbling things to my self. Jg

lou, look carefully at the braces, I'm counting 5 "[" and 4 "]" Jg
-
Lou, are your "[" "]" the way you like them? Jg
-
savagkd, I don't have a answer but if you turn gouge protection off it calculates in seconds. Jg
-
heavy metal, what is in your pwcs postblock? Jg
-
3.82, you could also use multi-ax flowline one side at a time. Jg
-
3.82, have you tried rotary 4ax toolpath? use rotary cut, adjust the axis dampening length and gap settings if you see a gouge or the tool lifting more than you like. Jg
-
Can you put the file on the FTP Jg
-
Tim, I'm not 100% on this, but I believe I was told that you do not need a end of line (e$) on an "if" post line.
-
~thinking out loud~ "simulate cutter comp in control" maybe?
-
how about... WHILE[#100LE5] insert you favorite lines of code here. #100=#100+1 END1 Jg
-
good catch, I saw the sub program selection for absolute and just assumed it was for a rotary app. Jg
-
quote: ... but when i load it into the haas controller to watch the video of my toolpath program it only showed it going over the same position... I believe that is all you will see if you are using a rotary axis to position for cutting from a sub. Jg

Well, I gotta say I'm eating alota EGG this week, I re-typed in the one that did NOT work and now it works (Obviously I had a typo that I did not see), still, I never knew John's method worked like that. (one line) Thanks Again to John and Jim,
-
Jim, you've got mail.
-
John, That was it! i never would have guessed that. thanks alot John, thats perfect... (not to mention FAST) Jg

Hi All, can anyone explain why the following kicks out a error, and/or why the second one works? var1 = 0 var2 = 0 this does not work, if var1 <> 0 | var2 <> 0, [ do this ] this works, if var1 <> 0, [ if var2 <> 0, [ do this ] ] I thought the | symbol meant or ? thanks, J.g.

slave, let me ask you this, do you want help modeling or machining the part, if you need help modeling, we need to know the geometry for the missing features, if machining, we need to know the geometry for the missing features. thanks, Jg
-
slave, I D/L your model, what are you having difficulty with exactly? Jg
