I am working as a part time-reseller in VietNam, and I can not ask a technical from Malaysia or Singapore go to VietNam to show me more about 5 axis. The price is expensive.
Mastercam have some issue that I can not underestand.
X6 version, swarf 5 axis have lead in and lead out each depth of cut.
x8 version, swarf 5 axis do not have lead in and lead out each depth of cut.
I try both swarf 5 axis and swarf milling and I see some difference. In that case swarf 5 axis work good, in some case swarf milling work good and I do not know why because the shape of part is similar.
I think someone in this forum have the same problem.
I have to using mastercam 5 axis. And I try to make a best tool path.
You can see my program below. I think the program is ok, and the question is: How can I make a better tool path and Is there any way to program faster?
I take time to create surface and resolve it.
I find that in Mastercam X6, swarf 5 axis have better entry and exit. Mastercam x8 may error in this tool path.

Hi everyone,
This part look quite difficult for holding and clamping. The biggest problem is there is not enough plane for holding and clamping. In this case, I will have 3 operations. OP1 rough leave 0.5mm stock on vise jaw. op2 rough and finish on vise jaw. op3 finish the last on fixture.
Thank for reading.
I am working with mastercam and I hope someone can help me improve my ability of creating program. You only give me a part or 2d drawing and I will make a program for you and you review my program, or any one have a small question can post in here. I will answer for you. Here is my sample program.
