  1. Dave: since you don't have Mastercam lathe... it might be the "esprit" software that gave you the "G-code" toolpath .... J/K
  2. yes, it should be in the correct orientation but you can move it using Xform, STL ... then rotate/ translate etc.. Dynamic planes may also work for you in X4 Mu3
  3. Multiaxis doesn't support the use of solids... you must use all surfaces
  4. Dave: really, I didn't realize you were evaluating your second seat of Mastercam... J/K
  5. Dave: one of your earlier comment, I used "spindle transfer" under the misc values options as well as bar feeders.... I am alo looking into writing a Mori Seiki NL 2000 Y.... If you would like, give me a call Chris
  6. shawn: On its way back to ya... please let me know
  7. Programinator: send me a "Z2G" file..... I'll be glad to take a look at it
  8. welcome to "dynamic planes" in Mastercam X4 Mu3
  9. Dave: Using X4 Mu3 with the Dynamic planes is just so much easier... I have this discussion several users (of other software).. and they have liked what we have to offer.
  10. Hello: I have a fanuc w/ "Y" axis... Where do I set the "Y" direction for a single tool in the offset tables... I look it has "GEO" / "X" / "Z" / RAD.... then I was told to go to shift (soft keys twice) ...but i don't see what I am looking for Any help... please let me know
  11. Joey: Prof Reynolds...?? My we are getting formal
  12. Alvaro: in the post, you need need to switch from old_new from "1" to "0"... then the canned cycles work Hope this helps
  13. Steve: Welcome to the forum... Did you take the classes through "us" or through the college?
  14. Dave: I got it... didn't realize the e-mail
  15. Rakesh: I get this all the time, From Support at CNC Software, I was told to " Lower the speed/quality slider down 1 notch allows the part to completely verify." Also, check the tolerance as to what your "STL" model is set for
  16. Hmmm: Hey guys, sorry I missed it
  17. Programinator: Glad to help just as long as I e-mail back the corrected post... Nice catch
  18. remember how we loaded mastercam in "DOS". C:cam386cam386.exe boy those were the days
  19. Programinator. Hey give me a shout, I'll take a look at it. Chris
  20. Yes it is available... contact your dealer It is demo/ HLE (Home learning edition)... It will save as an "Emcx" file extension.. You will not be able to bring the file into "Industry"...but you can bring an "industry file (mcx) file into the "demo/HLE version"
  21. Son Vo: in your post look for the postblock "Plin"... then read what is on that line.. if you want to force al "X" and "Y" moves out, then use the "*" symbol to force out what is necessary
  22. Jay: After the operation is created, goto the "geometry" then where it has the drill options, select the sort option, now select it in the order you would like... Please give me a call if you need further assistance
  23. Goldorak: clean toolpath...yes... but fast I haven't found that to be...we cut several parts and found that the "legacy" style was faster but a lot of climb/conventional direction cutting As for the "Dynamic pocket"..it was great for tool wear.
