Hi

I am having backplot cycle time problem in ver_10

Why cycle time is different in mastercam 9 and 10 ?

I am using the same toolpath in milling and lathe for both version. Which cycle time to trust now?

I am using backplot and then Info screen in ver_10 for cycle time. Is it right or wrong?

In ver_9 we use to run backplot and then check the screen in bottom for cycle time.

Thanks

we work on proe and mastercam.I like to export surface without wire frame from proe to iges. and import in mastercam.It seems good to me.

Hi

I run "3Dlabs Oxygen" It is great.never had any problems.

join those arc with line_endpoint then contour......

Try Threadmilling, It is great

you can buy different type of tools for Threadmilling. In some threadmill tools you even dont have to make the holes. they made for hard material and blind holes

I dont like Fadal

Buy Hass or OKK

Are you using HSS or Carbide?

It is very hard without coolent, But you can use cutting oil and 40-50SFM(approx. 3000RPM)with .0005-.001 Chip load and try to use .01-.015 peck for 1MM drill.

Good Luck

Just play with Retract and Depth If your pocket is -1.0 deep then put R= -.9 to start from .100 thou above.

Whenever I have some critical size to make in the pocket. I always use pocket to do only rough without any compensation and leave .005" material in the X,Y . Then I use contour to make all the final size using the same tool. Like this operator never get confuse.Because we control all our compensation/wear from 0.000 i.e left,left and right,right in contour.

When I Regen.from Opretion ManagerI Have this message after Import:-

bnci_section0:cannot delete nci section!

I am sorry for the CAPITAL LETTERS

THANKS

IT WORKS GREAT

ONLY THE LAST PROBLEM I HAVE THAT WHENEVER I IMPORT OPERATION WITH GEOMETRY FROM MC7 TO MC8 . I FOUND THAT SOME TOOL PATH (POINT/CHAIN)ARE MISSING AFTER IMPORT EVEN IF I SAVE ALL MC7 FILES AS MC8 THEN IMPORT THE OPERATION, WHEN I REGENERATE MY TOOL PATH I HAVE THIS MESSAGE:-

bnci_section0:cannot delete nci section!

BALBIR

THANKS MARK

IT WORKS

DO YOU KNOW HOW TO GET RID OF THAT CHECK MARK?

BECAUSE WHEN EVER I OPEN MY MASTERCAM IT IS THERE DO I HAVE HAVE TO UNSELECT MANUALLY ALL THE TIME?

WHENEVER I IMPORT OPERATION WITH GEOMETRY FROM MC7 TO MC8 . I FOUND THAT SOME TOOL PATH (POINT/CHAIN)ARE MISSING AFTER IMPORT

BALBIR

When I Import any Operation with there Geometry or Without any Geometry from JOB SETUP and IMPORT, My all Tool# changed to #1,2,3,4,5,6,7_ _ Instead of e.g. #31,44,12,33,3,65,98_ _

then I have to go back in operation manager and change all the tool numbers back to what I want or need. Why it is like that?
