    When I click on the link, it takes me to the Verisurf tools page and I fill out the request so that you guys can email the link for the download. Nothing happens after that. I have tried this process a few times and I am still not able to download the tools. I saw the link for the [email protected] and tried to contact through that link, but the link is broken. I get 404 Error: Page not found. Any Ideas???

    Hey Camalot, we've went ahead and resolved these issues, thank you for bringing it to our attention. Please try the form again.

  2. You'll probably have better luck posting to the industrial forums. However I can give you some recommendations, we often get similar questions here at Verisurf.

     

    First off, I would suggest staying away from NVidia GTX cards, they're almost exclusively found in gaming laptops.

     

    At the very minimum, I would recommend Dell's base model 5510 series. It's definitely entry level, but at the least they're including some DDR4 memory, a thunderbolt port and USB 3.0. The M1000 is also a decent start and should keep you going for a while. The price Is $1400 and I'd highly recommend upgraded the hard drive to a Solid State drive with at least 256gb. The biggest selling point is the form factor, the 5510's are crazy thin and portable. http://www.dell.com/en-us/work/shop/productdetails/precision-m5510-workstation

     

    As far as "future proof" laptop configurations go, considering affordability, I'd have to recommend a sager workstation. They're not the prettiest laptops but the specs they offer for $2,100 are unmatched by anyone I know of. http://www.sagernotebook.com/Workstations/

  3. I have a 2d drawing with dimensions , When I create a PDF with the verisurf tool it leaves out the dimensions numerals  but not the lines.

    Is this a bug in the pdf creator ?

    Thanks

    Heavy,

     

    We've just recently added the ability to include notes into the 3D PDF. Our next release of Verisurf/Verisurf Tools for Mastercam will include this change, keep an eye out!

  4. 190 is on the higher side while under load. If you're seeing 190 during idle you might want to consider taking the case off and make sure there's no dust build up and the cooling fans are working correctly. If it's still running constantly at 190 degrees, you are on borrowed time.

  5. Depends on a couple of factors, are you upgrading these through Dell, or on your own?

     

    I don't know how flexible you are with different options but I would first recommend an i7 3770k instead of the 6 core xeon.

     

    Instead of a 256 GB SSD, why not go for a 128? Install MC and your OS on the SSD as well, run a 500GB HDD Slave in your secondary. SSD's are still very pricey, especially anything over 128+ GBs

     

    RAM looks good, what kind of motherboard?

     

    What kind of Power Supply?

     

    And lastly, I'd shoot for a Quadro 4000. You might be surprised on the savings you'll get from the 256GB SSD to the 128.
