  3. Thks. Garf. I appreciate your feedback.
  4. Hi Members I need help with Heidenhain program start Block : BLK Form 0.1 and BLK Form 0.2. What does 0.1 and 0.2 represent? Thks. in advance. newbie70
  5. Thks. for the info. Will try with a demo version before I buy. Rocket Mach.
  6. I am tapping. The maximum tap size for BSPP would be between 1" to 1.25" for hydraulic cylinder ports, starting from 3/8" or so. I should be able to use the tool lib. both for lathe and milling, so my guess is, it will have to be from C-Hook - Rocko.
  7. Hi Members I need help with BSPT and BSPP tapping lib. I also checked C-Hook, couldn't find any lib for BSPT and BSPP. Iam running X7. THKS in adv. newbie70
  8. Hi Ron Does that mean that If I use G71 for roughing cycle and before I use G70, I can stop the machine to measure it physically and then adjust the reqd. depth? While programming manually, one will use this line format to measure it physically and then adjust the required depth before running G70. newbie70
  9. Hi Ron I did download the Mcam cd and md pdf. and followed the procedure you mentioned. I deleted Mpl.pst and added the ones I'm gonna be using. Again Thks for your feedback Ron. newbie70
  10. Hi Members Am still waiting for inputs on how to fix lathe taper thread X value. Newbie70
  11. Hi Ron I accidently fired up Mpl, then when I was done with the programming part it was asking me to select post. I selected this post and hence after I programmed, the default setting became Mpl. pst. There's no option in CD folder to swap with any other post. So I had to delete it from CD settings. Newbie70
  12. I have similar issues with X7 verify on all drill operations including center drill. What I do is, I save the file, close x7 -re-open- and run with Tplane rather than Isometric. B4 I was using 4GB mem, I doubled it, won't make any difference. No verify issues with X6 (4GB RAM)
  13. HTH I'm using X7. I had to delete Mpl.pst as it had become a default post.
  14. Hi members I accidentally picked Mpl.pst for my post processor. I tried everything, it won't change. Thks. Newbie70
  15. Trax No it is just a metric profile, 2.5 pitch. newbie70
  16. 5th Axis Of course it is OD taper thread. I've screen shot of setup and NC file in text format Newbie70 Text.txt
  17. Hi Members I need help with taper thread. No matter what size the taper thread is? What I learnt in school is 1 line format using G76 thread cycle where X is the minor diameter of long end. However, when I am using Mcam, G76 thread cycle , X comes up as minor diameter of short end even though my setup is for minor diameter of long end. My query is, do I need to edit this in mcam post to manual programming setting or leave it as it is? Thks in Advance Newbie
  18. Hi Members Need a lathe post with Fanuc - OT controller - 2/3 axis lathe. Thanks in advance Newbie
  19. Hi Members Would appreciate if I can get a post for Okuma - IGF controller - 5 axis milling Thks. in advance Newbie70
  20. Hi Reece I got a message 2 days ago from you asking me where to send the files? Don't recall what files I asked for? newbie70
  21. I typed in %temp% and found number of temp folders including mastercam temp folders. I cleared some to no avail. Do I have to clear all of mastercam temp folders? newbie70
  22. H G Would appreciate if u could tell me the location of temp folder. Thks. newbie70
  23. R J I don't have any issues with X6 back plot or verify which is in my other machine. I will try with Z-1.5 deep drill to see where the core problem is? or is this happening only with your software. Newbie
