Okuma America is going to be demoing Y-Axis parting at IMTS it looks like. If that is the case, I bet we will be seeing a good solution soon.

Yup, talked to the Okuma AE that will be showing this at IMTS, there is a solution but its something that needs to be requested from Okuma to activate.

The Multus post is still being tweaked. It is close though. Honestly though, I have Mastercam MT, Esprit, and TopSolid on my PC. None of them can post 100% for the Multus U series. I have cases for all that still require hand editing, even with the "certified posts". 

Guys, my name is Chris Kozell and I work for CNC Software(Mastercam). I work out of the Partners In Thinc in Charlotte NC with Okuma America. The Multus U post in the Mastercam MT should work great with no post edits unless you are trying to do something wonky. I use that machine environment alot and have received awesome feedback from end users that the post functions very good. If you are having to make edits please, please contact your reseller and have them check to make sure you are running the latest version. If not, dont hesitate to contact me. Thanks for your support! 

I'm supposed to tour the NC facility tomorrow (feb 26th), however all flights have just been cancelled. Maybe Friday I'll make it. Chris, will you be there? Our tour guide is a Gosiger AE.

 

thx

 Sorry i am out of town right now and wont be back till Monday morning. Let me know if it gets delayed passed that....Safe travels

Guys, I am the new  Mastercam OEM guy working out of the Okuma Partners in thinc office in Charlotte, NC. Contacting your local dealer is the best route but I didnt think they are going to give out the whole EXE file. Let your dealer know specifically what machine/control you need and I am sure they can help.

With that note, I am working with the post group at Mastercam to prove out the Okuma post and get the certified from Okuma Corporate. Mastercam will be announcing the machines as they get done and will be available through your reseller.  Please feel free to contact me with question and I will do my best to help. 

Casey,

if you have any questions just drop us an email tomorrow and we will help you out. [email protected]

Mike, you just lost all credibility saying that you were hanging with me at the conference. No wonder why Tyler doesn’t remember you! LOL

Hi BBGUN, Like Keith said, since you already have a mill 3 seat we can do an add-on to the mill 3 seat. Give me a call and I can stop out and show you how MC4SW works. Or you can email me. Talk to you soon.

peon, Please give me a call in the morning on this and lets take a look at whats going on. You can also email me at [email protected]

Whats up steve? How is the fam? I have seen this is early versions of X, a dialog box would get minimized and get stuck. I have not seen this problem with X3 or X4. If you can let me know the key strokes I can check it out further.

Hi Ted. Call me on this when you get a chance.

Hey Charlie, give me a call at the IL office 847-428-4350. Thanks Chris

Jo,

Hello Camgal, its your reseller. Give me a call when you have a chance at the IL office. I think there is some confusion.

Thanks guys for helping her. appreciate it!

I believe there are lock codes for the c axis. That will make a difference when 3+2 with blend area.

hey Ted, give me a call

I am glad i dont have to press done, done, done, do it anymore!

Murraymold, you can get the ge3 vb file to mass convert thoses old ge3 to v9 files. works in v9 only, unless someone else updated it that i dont know about.

Ted,

Shooot me an email outlining what you are looking for for the probe. In the past we have done it with custom drill cycles.

Ted,

I talked with you a couple of wks ago and I thought we both agreed to wait till i get back from IMTS and tackle the issues then. I always have my phone and email so just let me know and we can deal with it between you and I!

Chris

Ok, i think i got it. No m12 in the first part of the program. the cause is the customer has clearance and retract checked off. YOU MUST HAVE THESE ON!!!!

Hello all! Any of you guys out there running a multicam router series 3-205? In the post I am running in a middle of the contour toolpath it switches to a rapid move. I am wondering if its the m12 or m22. Below is a sample of the code.

Thanks for any help.

I have a couple of idea's. Under settings, config and toopath tab, uncheck display surf/plane intersections. Also when doing toolpath on a solid and using the regular 3d toolpaths, under the advance settings check skip hidden face check for solid bodies.

Let me know if you see an improvement.

Anybody out there using an Agie in X2? I am having a Hell of a time trying to get the code right. I keep getting this crazy double move when i change passes. Anyone else run into this?

Jeff,

try disable hardware acceleration under settings, config, and screen tab. You will see at the top left a check box for it. Give it a try.

If that doesn't work try to do a repair with the system disk. Make sure when you do, you are log in as admin.
