  1. I will try that indeed. have a great day and thankx...
  2. well... thanks guys.. in regards to the tplanes- it might work indeed, just have to figure out how to.... the post heh? I don't feel like playing around... this project is very critical- there is no margin to mistake, but thanks... do you guys know anything about this theory below? G54 It also states to place the model/part or stock in respect of the machine origin...... (or another way to look at it )..... program it around the "normal views" , create another WCS with the origin at the machines' rotation origin ( HINT, place a point to represent the rotating origin and use this point when setting the XYZ origin in your WCS and T/C planes.... moving this point would move your toolpaths as well. It is also a good idea to keep the standard views untouched, create your own WCS and views and adjust the origin on these, )
  3. hi all... Im completely puzzled over here... imagine running a rotary table that is seating off the center of the main center of rotation on a HMC... the post was changed with the appropriate values to compensate the shift, on the mastercam the part is programmed according to the views [right view]... front plane is B0. C0. ... The G-Code outputs pretty good except the Z value... because G54 Z value is taken from the exact main center of rotation the G-code Z values are very difficult to measure but seemed okay... Is there any way of programming it that the Z value would come out as a normal 3 axis machine? thank you all
