We have 6 in a cell all cutting RC42 4340 also without Plus-K, Been here since 2002 swapped out 2 robos since then. Spindle bearings. They are real troopers IMHO.
why? (facepalm) I tell my guys all the time "only keep what you need for that operation". there is no reason to have tooling, geometry, clamps, models from previous operations in a file. I totally select all geom used in toolpaths plus models, invert selection - delete and save. BooM nice small file and anyone can step into it and see what's going on. Yes we have a separate mastercam file for every operation.
For instance, In Autocad I can bring in an image measure it, scale it, stretch it, move it. see image.
Can this be done in MasterCam? I farted around with it and am assuming not. RTV will hold one for vector purposes but it goes away after.
We get it often, I try and wire edm it whenever possible. Have not seen it delaminate from coolant or edm water. Have seen it delaminate on the waterjet. Just need to sammich it.
