Mastercam X9 Indexing Training Tutorial (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorials (Imperial)
The Mastercam X9 Indexing Training Tutorial includes a project that describes the use of the Plane Manager for working with Tool planes and Work offsets.
The material provides users with valuable information for defining and working with different standard and non-standard planes, and takes a look at using Mastercam’s Transform Toolpaths in a multiple fixture environment. The book explains the using of the WCS for horizontal machining and how to complete a Tombstone project with multiple fixtures on each face.

Mastercam X9 CAD Import and Mill Advanced Toolpaths Tutorials (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorials (Imperial)
The CAD Import & Mill Advanced Toolpaths Training Tutorial consists of projects and accompanying practice exercises. It is intended for intermediate to experienced Mastercam users who are primarily importing 3D geometry from another CAD software package.
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.
Each project explains how to prepare the imported geometry using levels, how to check for problems in the geometry and how to move the geometry to set the work zero.
All of the parts are designed with machinability in mind and include suggested fixtures and tool setups. Clearly laid out objectives and step previews make it easier than ever to follow along.
This book covers Surface Finish and Roughing toolpaths with an emphasis put on the advanced Surface High Speed toolpaths. Other topics include STL Stock creation and its use in solid model verification and 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.

Mastercam X9 Tool Manager Tutorial (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorials (Imperial)
This step-by-step tutorial teaches you how to create a tool database in Mastercam X9’s Tool Manager.
We begin by creating and editing a new cutting tool and holder. From there, we show you how to correctly assemble them and make further edits. Other topics include how to import one tool or an entire Mastercam library into the new database. As well you will learn how to import a .dxf tool file (we use examples from Iscar and Sandvik) and then make any geometry modifications necessary to match Mastercam requirements.

Mastercam X9 Mill-Turn Training Tutorial (PDF)
By DanielGingras in Training Tutorials (Imperial)
This tutorial covers Mastercam’s toolpath functionality in the Mill-Turn add-on. You must have the Mastercam Mill –Turn add-on in order to use this tutorial, it does not work with the Mastercam Home Learning Edition.
To apply these toolpaths you need a multi-tasking machine tool, in our case Mazak Integrex 100-IV ST and a customize post processor. This machine configuration features second turning spindle and lower turret. Similar configuration machines such as Doosan Puma MX 2100/2600 ST can be used, keeping in mind that some machine specifics could be different.
The tutorials cover turning toolpath and milling toolpaths including multiaxis and specific toolpaths such as pinch turning. The parts are machined in both spindles, stock transfer and part handling routine are also described. Specific functions and options such as Job Setup, Axis combination and tool setup, automatic tool plane creation, synchronization and tokens are also covered.
Note: This book requires the Mill-Turn add-on, which must be acquired from your local Mastercam Reseller.
