Shawn: just checked with "support" as well ... seems to be broken at the moment... I believe it writes out to a "prm" file then it reads back in... It is now submitted as a "bug" Thanks

Mike: run around.. Hmmm Hmmm (you supplied no explanation of what you were looking for.. just the "Z2G" file) As far as your "circle mill".. you have feedplane at -.812.. top of stock at "Z 0."..the depth at -.812 with multiple depth cuts at .25 deep.. so your first "Z" depth cut is at -.2025 (included in doc file Mike.doc)... I'm not sure what your trying to do in the circle mill... I also fixed your tap cycle as well as your mill_inch.defaults so you can customize your cycles... I wouldn't call that much of a run around

I had several *.cad files from Cadra... Is there a way to bring these files into Mastercam? I'sm sure we could "IGES" or something but they have 5+ years of files... I would hate to have to export each file one at a time and then bring it into Mastercam Please let me know Thanks

create a new format statement (or look at FS 19) that is using "E" for the feedrate , please look at pfr_l pfr_l #Format feedrate for lathe if opcode$ = 104, [ #Format feedrate for lathe thread result = nwadrs(stre, feed) result = newfs (19, feed) ] else, [ result = nwadrs(strf, feed) result = newfs (18, feed) ]

Unable to open Ver 9 & X2 at the same time.
Chris Parish replied to TSPLINE's topic in Industrial Forum
Its amazing, lasttuesday I went to Buffalo, from exit 48a to exit 50 was 1 hour drive, that should be about 20 mins. I got to N. Tonawanda and the sun was out, roads were dry. Design LT (similiar to the old V9 draft) should allow this... and yes it does not require a hasp -

What is it about mastercam and igs files
Chris Parish replied to Gordon Dawson's topic in Industrial Forum
In solidworks when you export as "IGES", you have to go to the options.. The two are as follows: 1) export as surfaces 2) export as 3d curves unfortunately, you don't get both all at once -
Bogus mill: Wow you have actually got a "bridgeport" to communicate fromMastercam (V9 or "X")... I have been doing this for 11 years... and never never got Mastercam to communicate with a "Boss" control What's you secret...
