Here is how mine is set up.

maybe, probably more trouble then its worth

damn e-stop elf, you never see them running around. But you also never see Bigfoot.

So, none of my post have CIMCO cycle probing. Does anyone now if any of the free post have it???? Just like to see if it's worth the purchase.

I'm looking into and finding the post need to support it.

Good luck with that

and maybe the machine????

At the beginning I hope????

Don't use both line/arc filter and smoothing at the same time. Just use the Line/arc filter alone. It does not work using both smoothing and filter at the same time.

All the above, plus get ride of witness line of lead in and out.

Got it, down load went well.

What ever happened to using a c-bore tool?

Toolpath/Transform

DMG, Index, and Okuma.

enough said

Thanks for the help.

The file downloaded here was a quick experiment to see if you can extend an arc. I extended the arc by .5 so you can see the difference without zooming in. The job I'm working on has a full radii I'm trying to blend from main spindle to the sub spindle. I broke the arc in quadrants and extend the contour by .05. But Mastercam did not extend the arc. I can not upload the file for the job per customer.

So, you can not extend a arc in turn??? You can in mill. I thought the point of being able to extend a contour is so you do not have to draw more geometry.

Anyone having trouble extending an arc contour in turn with 2017? Extending a line contour seems to work fine. extending contour.mcam

Spring pass, free pass and Ghost pass. I have heard a lot of different terms. In other words another finish pass to reduce tool pressure.

it's not on their web-site yet. Looks interesting.

Any one know if Mori or Doosan have that option?
