  1. Creat ea point in the center of the hole and then select your contour and in lead-in/out select use entry point. HTH! BTW Welcome! Simon
  2. Welcome to the forum, there's definitly something you're not doing right, can e-mail me the file or try to upload it on the ftp if you can I'll have a look.HTH! Simon
  3. Hey guys o/t answer but I can't get any of the Catia files that are on the ftp, am I doing something wrong or is it the same for you??? Simon
  4. Hi P, you answered your question yourself, go to file converter parasld and read or write file depending if you want to bring it in or send it out.HTH! Welcome to the forum! Simon
  5. Hi Peter, I had a look at the part last week and this way wouldn't betoo efficient for him in this case because there's about 220 holes and there's not much room where the profile is free of interruption. It took about 5 minutes to find all the holes and my system was having a hard time suppressing them and still there was work involved so in that case I'd prolly go traditionnal way. Simon Simon
  6. Hi Rekd, maybe I have a solution for you if I understand right, when you go to toolpath drill, go to options right there and clear the selection (if there's one sorting selected) just click on it) and then do your selection and that's it. HTH! Simon teh hey I helped Rekd!!!
  7. Can you upload the file or e-mail it to me, I'll have a look at it because it's hard to answer surfaces questions without seeing it, there's many settings that can affect the result.HTH! Simon
  8. Mill or lathe and a little more explanation please. Simon
  9. Phil I went to a place I've never gone before (my uncle brought me there) St-Armand in Estrie you prolly know this if you come from there, it's close to Bedford, awsome place and full of deers, I'm going back there tomorrow to get my meat and have a big lunch tomorrow night. Simon
  10. Man that's good allowed for 2, here it's only 1 no matter what and the permit is about 45$. It's not a too good deal when you check how much cost every pound but... Simon
  11. Here in Quebec, it's on for the last 2 weeks and for my 1st year did shot a nice female (first season and was selected in draw for female license) I'll try to give you guys a pic so I can prime you a little. Good luck to all.BTW is it the same in the states concerning females? Simon
  12. Hi Phil, could you share the file or e-mail it see what I can do. Simon
  13. Hi Sam, welcome to the forum, you'll need the solid option to be able to apply tollpaths on a solid model, if you have it, you'll need to tell the system the part is a solid: "toolpath-rough-solid" an then the system extract a temporary profile of your part so you can chain it.HTH Simon
  14. Hi Coxy, welcome to the forum, are you in Lasalle ,Quebec? feel free to e-mail me the file in question, I'll take a look at it.HTH! Simon
  15. Oh! forgot, personnaly I never used SmartCAM but all the customers that made the switch found it similar so easy to switch but with all kind of enhancements that you can't let go as associativity, flexibility, converters and so on...
  16. Good morning CAMGUY, just give me a call (we're dealer in your area and I could come down and show you real life time cuts, we do have return on investment charts. When i'm talking about time cuts (more then 50%). [email protected] 514-333-8808 Simon
  17. Your dealer can't get you the 9.1 sp2 cd???? Simon teh
  18. Hi Troy, make sure you have 9.1 installed because you didn't have the plunge parameters in canned cycles in 9.0. HTH! Simon
  19. Hi Dib, welcome to the forum and for the post, ask your reseller or e-mail Dave Thomson at In-House solutions, your best way to go. Simon
  20. Check your e-mail efred. Simon
  21. Can also redraw the part, I know we try to avoid that but in cases like this sometimes it's less headaches. Good luck! Simon
  22. I think your best bet is flowline in a case like this, of course if it's 1 surface.I could help more if I'd see the file, can you upload it or feel free to e-mail it!HTH! Simon!
  23. In the 2nd parameter page of the drill operation, you have drill point x and z you can put in, moving the x will do a boring.Is this what you mean? HTH! Welcome to the forum! Simon
  24. Hi Les, your damn right, can open it in surfaces but not with solids, my system crashes all the time, no problem in V9.0SP1 (surfaces or solid)Sounds like a QC case...Sorry. Maybe bring it in surfaces and convert it to solids. Simon
  25. quote: Esprit for a little over two years Men you deserve a medal, I couldn't work with it more then 2 months. It's frustrating when you take 1 hour to do something that actually takes 5 minutes in MC. MC all the way!!! Simon
