is the x6 hle still usable, i know they have expiration dates just curious to know, im taking a mcam job and need to dust off the cobb`s for the last yr i been using featurecam at my current work place, i my x6 training package from <removed> and i believe its got the hle still
-
ya when crazy mill man suggest that id never heard of a check surface, but i get it but thats what my intent was to do it on a 4th just like that pic shows
-
that was the end result i was looking for, i would not have thought you would have to do that though, the copying and setting new planes, it wont do 4 axis simultaneous ? or is that alot more work than what you did there
-
Ya its x4
-
o looks like I can upload it I couldn't get the trim to surface to work either 133.MCX
-
yes it won't let me upload it
-
works ok with the top surface alone then did one of the bottom surfaces and it wants to cut through instead of indexing
-
im having trouble machining this because it appears to be going over all surfaces, including the bottom, and wiping out the part completely how can I import it and and get only the surfaces I need I can get a stl igs or dxf igs seems to be best but there are surfaces at the bottom that don't need to be machined any and all advice is appreciated

Mazak Integrex 200-3s
BOATDUDEGUY replied to Shawn Wentzel- Wenteq Inc's topic in Machining, Tools, Cutting & Probing
Wow im detecting a bit of that elitist stench, the kind that you get when you talk to the higher ups at places like vam, and esprit How much money would it cost them to dig up that spec of info, I could be wrong, and usually am, but snotty people like that really burn my a** -
Small Lathe Recommendation

I ran both 220 and 200 models for yrs, the 200s hardly ever breakdown The 220s always had relay issues -
As if I couldn't love this thing anymore I just figured out today that you can have images in rotation on the lcd screen Like a miniature digital photo album in one of my favorite toys

flpot and roll die c-hook parameter s
BOATDUDEGUY replied to BOATDUDEGUY's topic in Industrial Forum
Worked perfect Like it was programed by one of you pros And we have several in different sizes that also ran just the same now that I understand and know how to use the fplot -
flpot and roll die c-hook parameter s
BOATDUDEGUY replied to BOATDUDEGUY's topic in Industrial Forum
Wow Thanks so much to John and Colin Ive been fighting with this shape for almost ayr now Although if I woulda known about emcam a yr ago poorly wouldn't have taken so long There is simply no way I would have figured this out on my own Can't Thank you guys enough!
-
I'm in need of some understanding The variables in the fplot Also the parameters for the roll die like the tool vector, etc What does tool vector mean
-
Ya I thought the radius were needed And jon and have exchanged pms on the subject of the roll die I'll shoot him another line on the subject Thanks
-
Well I attempted but I do not understand the fplot chook And manually drawing then rolling the geometry did not come out right The print has the info Can you explain how to use the fplot for me Does the upper and lower limit represent amplitude? Step size= period? Or am I just all jacked up here
-
Right okay I'm new to this I just took the YouTube sine wave class on it,okay I thought I needed a radius ill try it withthe provided info
-
Does anyone know how I can draw out this profile to use the roll die I dont see a dim for the radius Sorry don't have a scanner
-
Try changing the size of the tool in mcam to .62501
-
Ya iam used to offsetting the lines as you stated It became alot clearer for me once you told me how to generate the curves from the model
-
o, did you create a surface to use for the pocket?
-
ya i put the wireframe like you said, it worked, but i also want to know how to use the solid as well i was trying to do a pocket similar to yours, the first one on op one, when i chain it, it leaves a thin wall, and does not take the cutter over the edge i looked at how you chained it but i dont understand
-
ya im just getting started using an actual model, the places ive worked they never had the customer send a model we had to draw it from the print the local support, as well as most here im sure, thought wow yall are back in the stone age, i never have to draw much, all customers send models these days,such a time saver so im used to starting with nothing, been playing around with tyring to use models only here at home, found some old prints and just learning on my own, and with the forum
-
hah wow i couldnt get jack going on that idller bracket, just face and contour the profile with a silhouette boundary i attempted the highspeed surface opticore but im affraid i dont understand anything about it, without a print i guess im just lost
