  1. Imo the output is correct. How does your Zoller "know" that your .074 tool originally was an .075 ?
  2. I was close, but not correct: 2.0 + 0.5 = 2.5, will be round to 3.0 So first check for already being an integer. then add 0.5 and round.
  3. First add 0.50, and then do the normal round.
  4. I have put the X-Style coolant from the Mpmaster in my .set setup sheet. The output is done by: The output is fine, exept one situation: If there is no coolant selected there is no output, but there i want an waring. First i tried without success: Then i read the parameters Also no success, Now i'm lost. ideas??
  5. IMHO he SHOULD order this, using both systems will be a nightmare.
  6. Some times here the same. open an pdf file in adobe acrobat use your scroll there then move the mous to mastercam (with out clicking) and scroll out and out. Most times you can correct by clicking some where (toolpath manager or the header) in mastercam
  7. This is what i've done, AND the "Use tool's step, peck, coolant" in the Machine Group Properties is set. But it is not rock solid. Now i have the (X-style) coolant added to my setup sheet so we can check before sending the program to the machine
  8. Before "T35", do an toolcall "T0" Then toolcall "T35", so "T0" is in pocket 35 Run "T35" Again an toolcall "T0", "T35" is back in pocket 35 Then call the next tool
  9. https://www.iscar.com/eCatalog/Family.aspx?fnum=2458&mapp=TH&app=120&GFSTYP=M Those are lefthand cutting (M4), so climb cutting from to to bottom
  10. For the toolgeo and library's i made: C:\MCAM-files\ Tools_DXF Tools_X6 Tools_X8 Tools_X9 Now there is only one place for the DXF files We've only 2 seats here, by this way it's easier to synchonise those files.
  11. I'm also an X9 user, the boxes/windows for Levels, WCS's AND Color come up where i left them last time, even after shutdown and restart Mcam. Maybe an windows setting?? BTW: Win 10 here
  12. We wil get an 2002 Hyundai HIT 250 MS Sub spindle single turret with live tools Siemens Control I haven't touched an cnc lathe in 15 years, and never worked with Siemens controls. We asked our Mastercam reseller quote for: Renewing maintenance, adding Lathe and an Post. i between 2 ?? for the post: Is there an existing post ready for this machine "from the shelf" available? Will the 'MPLMaster' be close or at least a good starting point?
  13. +1, Contact Imco, i see mastercam in their video's
  14. assign the pst-files to: notepath or whatever you want. rename the X9 - CodeExpert.exe to CodeExpert.111 assign the pst-files to the 2017 - CodeExpert.exe Check rename the X9 - CodeExpert to .exe Maybe you can skip step 1
  15. Add some logic to your post Have a look at this thread
  16. I need some for aluminum! Wouldn't that be nice? "Magnets" for Titanium and Aluminium: http://www.spreitzer.de/englisch/product-ranges/clamping-technology/freeze-clamping-technology/index.html
  17. There is an "MD/CD/Post Rename" addon http://www.mastercam.com/en-us/Admin/File-Management/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=5OXUZHzNQ0A%3d&portalid=0
  18. We are an Heidenhain shop. when using wear all D-offsets have to be "0". That means the operators can not use the heidenhain cycles for pocketing (251-254 and 212-215) , threadmilling (262-267) and helixbore (208) . Also the graphic backplot will not work. For THAT we never use wear. You have to make the decision what route you want to go for the whole shop, using both wil be an nightmare !! just my 2c. BTW it's not my intention to start an new Wear-Control discussion, (do an search, then you can spend hours and hours reading)

  20. No keep tool down, and a bug/defect in the finish passes lead in/out Do not use the ramp in there. My mail to QC: jun 03 2015
  21. With arcs i get the backplot time, with HELICS no backplot time
  22. For the tools you can go 'Classic' or the 'Dxf' style. See the PDF, (stolen from an other thread) custom_mill_tools.pdf I like the DXF style, less issues to transfer to the next version. For the Holders there is a nice tool in the X+ addon http://www.emastercam.com/board/topic/77325-easter-egg-from-gmccs-x-holder-support/?hl=%2Beaster+%2Bholder
