What can be done to stop cutting the air on the casting part? How can I set it up so it will cut only on the surface I need? Thanks

Can someone help me identify this fault that once in a while pops up on my screen and my mill machine freezes right at this moment? It says x max overlag or y/z. Any body have a clue? By the way I use Anilam 3300mk controller if that matters. Thanks

Using mplfan generic and was looking for what you said, end of file and could not locate that specific reference to T0100

Can someone help me get rid of T0100 in the end of the generated post? For some reason my machine does not like it.

Sorry for dumd question, how do you assign new offset?

I'm very new to mastercam and was wondering if anybody can help to this simple task: milling three part located in three fixtures? I have created toolpath for one part but how do you transfer it to do 2 more parts in one operation? Any suggestions? Thanks

I have tried your recommendations and here is what came out when I used backplotting the process:3hrs 45 min just to cut those damn 1.5 mm grooves. Feedrate I used is 50 mm/min with taking .75 mm per cut. Its still seems to be way off. What did I miss?

Stupid me, the file name is top-route-1st

I have posted the file in ftp under mc9 files folder. The toolpath in problem is green contour lines. If anybody can suggest anything to solve my problem I would really appreciate it. thanks

I have tried contour option and it still says it will take like 8 hrs.

Can somebody recommend the most efficient way to perform a simple groove operation with this dimensions 1.5 mm wide and 3 mm deep on top surface of the aluminum plate. Groove goes kind of circular shape on top of the plate. When I perform pocket creation toolpath with mastercam, the setup sheet says that it will take like 100 hours plus. Any suggestions? I needa little help, please. Thank you in advance

Can someone suggest a solution to my little problem? I have created the toolpath and saved the post but when I take the floppy to my machine it will not find the post there. Machine looks for file with extension *.pmc. When I edited the post as *.pmc it finds it ok but on verify machine displays bunch of errors. The post I was using is mpfan and my machine is Fryer Machine with Fanuc controls. Thanks

Is this catia read a separate independent program or its addon to mastercam?

Is it possible to convert a catia model drawing into some format that will be usable with mastercam? Thanks
