By DanielGingras in Training Tutorials (Imperial)
This is en eBook. An internet connection is required to read it.
Published by In-House Solutions Inc.
ATP for KCD Software automates the process of assigning toolpaths to doors used in cabinet making that were created in KCD Software. In this tutorial you will learn how to configure, setup the ATP and create a strategy to link the operations to their specific levels using the excel file generated in KCD Software. In the last step, Mastercam ATP will automatically nest the doors.

Mastercam 2017 Multiaxis Advanced Training Tutorial (Metric) (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorial (Metric)
Intended for the advanced Mastercam user, this book contains new projects demonstrating a variety of Advanced Multiaxis milling applications. The initial tutorials introduce Mastercam’s simplified multiaxis user interface featuring custom application toolpaths, and they later transition to the more advanced interface.
Topics include Tool Box toolpaths such as Projection, Impeller floor surface and Impeller blade swarf finish toolpaths. From the Wireframe toolpath family, you will learn how to use Parallel to multiple curves and Morph between two curves. You will also generate rough and finish toolpaths from the Surface/Solid toolpath family, such as Morph between two surfaces, Parallel cuts, Swarf milling and Parallel to surface.
Additionally, a special project is designed specifically to familiarize you with different Collision control strategies and how to verify the toolpaths using the new machine simulation module that combines toolpath backplot mode and material removal mode with collision detections.

Mastercam 2017 Mill Advanced Training Tutorial Metric (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorial (Metric)
The Mastercam 2017 Mill Advanced Training Tutorial contains projects and accompanying practice exercises that span a wide degree of complexity. It is strongly recommended to have a good understanding of 2D machining (provided in the Mill Essentials Training Tutorial, for example) before beginning this book.
All of the parts are designed with machinability in mind and include suggested fixtures and tool setups. Clearly laid out objectives and dimensioned step previews make it easier than ever to follow along.
The content covers 3D wireframe, surface geometry creation and solid creation, Surface Finish and Roughing toolpaths. An emphasis is put on the advanced Surface High Speed toolpaths, STL Stock creation and its use in solid model verification. Also covered is how to create and manage Stock models in the Toolpath Manager. Machine Simulation is used to check for collisions between the part, the tool and any of the machine’s components.
