Figured it out. Fadal uses: Q= Amount of Y+ shift I= Amount & Direction of X shift J= Amount & Direction of Y shift
-
It's an old Fadal
-
Long time no see gents. Using a Fine Bore op (bore to depth, shift, rapid out) it orients the tool parallel to the x axis but shifts in Y axis. I need it to shift in x axis. Is that possible?

I think we have found the problem

Will it crash on simple task as much as 2017?

That worked ok. It had all my parameters still set as I had wrote in MC which is good. Like you said I only had to rechain the geometry and it was done. Thanks Tom.
-
Is it possible to write toolpaths in MC and then bring in to Solidworks with the toolpaths attached? I tried saving in MC as step and iges files and when I brought it in to SW the part came in fine but no toolpath. Have no issues with writing paths in SW and bringing directly into MC. Thanks.

SpaceClaim model repair + Mastercam HS rest rough

Spaceclaim is some great stuff. -
Right on Bill. If people would only read up a bit they might understand the war between the states started in 1861 because the south wanted to seceed and the emancipation proclamation which freed the slaves wasn't signed until 1863.

I have the same issues. Part rotates as the Z is retracting and it gouges my part. Let me know what you find out please.
-
This causes the tool to retract to Z home position before returning to next cut. Not what I wanted. I just want Z to retract to the clearance or feed plane position then rotate the the A axis.
-
That's prolly it Mr. Wizard. Mine was set to 0. Thanks fellas! I owe ya both a PBR
-
Running contours with rotary axis on and set to 3 axis rotating about the x axis I cut a feature and when it retracts to go to the next location it seems as the Z and A axis are moving simultaneously creating a ramp looking gouge in my parts. How can I get it to retract in Z before rotating A to go to next location? TIA

Get the V9 to X5 Transition Guide. It worked well for me.
-
Bill, I have worked with a lot of 4 axis in V9. If you would like to shoot me the file and a description of what you want to achieve I will be more than happy to look at it.

Are you engraving on a cylinder? Have you tried the rolldie chook?

I am currently doing the MastercamU. So far I like it. Fills in some gaps for me, and I can work at my own pace.
-
Can you put it up on the ftp? If not, you can mail to me and I will have a looky.

Can I have a t-shirt instead? -

I bought one of these, took it all apart and modified it to meet my specifications. My new design is not for sale, but I will give it to you.
