Tom T, i wonder how you would machine an electrode with a flat endmill using flowline or surface contour especially for sharp flats that tapers.i mean we can't use ball nose cutters.everytime i use a flat cutter MC WILL SAY CUTTER CANNOT HAVE NEGATIVE STOCK VALUE.
-
cadcam,what i mean is finish the bottom to size using mutisurface rough pocketing as there are no multisurface finish pocket routine without drawing anymore 2-D contour lines.
-
in that case Tony,it means we can't finish all those multisurface pocket depths to their actual depths.it seems there are no other methods for just finishing the pocket depths without touching the walls.
-
can surface rough pocket mill the depths of all pockets or steps in this multisurface rough pocket but leaving the walls for finishing.or is there any other method for milling the depths to size without resorting to constructing wireframes for finishing all the pockets or steps using 2-D pocketing as we already have all the surfaces drawn.

Toolmakers morph into Computer Programmers!!!

in our company it's the boss who sends himself for training on the software,but when the critical stage appears,he says he's no expert.what a fool. -
how do we make the u-v lines to form a row,so that we can use flowline machining?can anybody answer that?
-
does mastercam has a wcs icon that can be activated or switch off for display just liked autocad?i mean not the f9 switch.thks
-
why i don't understand,the U.S being the most advanced nation still using the most outdated measurement system.why they hold the world record in the 100 metres???
-
whilst i was working as a night shift operator setting up inserts for cnc milling.one night a colleague set up as usual a mold insert for roughing,and calmly went to sleep.the next morning the cutter milled right thro the soft vise leaving a profile on the vise itself.he was duly sacked.
-
does anyone know how to split a mould into a cavity and core parts using mastercam without that moldplus c-hook enhancements?
-
why is it importing tools from job setup ,some of the tools don't seem to come out although i have filtering tools set to all on?can anybody help?
-
please be careful with racial overtones.it's not good for racial harmony.it doesn't mean you don't see them in your commpany,doesn't mean there are none.
-
why is it that when posting out files(.nc) in operation manager with the mastercam editor,it doesn't open up the file but needed to go to file-open to open it for editing. can anybody enlighten me?
-
can the speeds and feeds be converted to metric?i mean speed in rpm and feedrate in mm per minute.as most of us are using metric . [This message has been edited by ngkim (edited 06-16-2001).]
-
I would liked to know how we can speed up shading of parts although i had change chord height settings to 0.1 or more.
-
can anyone knows how to adjust the correct depth for 3d contour although i put it in incremental depth to zero,it always goes deeper than actual depth.
-
I hope you can answer this,gstephens.I wonder where do you add 0 or 40.hope you can be more specific? [This message has been edited by ngkim (edited 06-05-2001).] [This message has been edited by ngkim (edited 06-05-2001).]

but in ver 7,it can automatically do it for you.example T1=D41,T2=D42....etc.could it be changed in the post?
-
what I mean is I want to rough 1 mm per cut for 20 cuts then finish pass with depth of cut of 5 mm for 4 cuts to depth of 20 mm all in one simple 2D contour parameters.can mcam allow that or do we need to pick the contours again for the finishing passes of 4 cuts ,each 5mm. [This message has been edited by ngkim (edited 06-01-2001).]
-
can anyone suggest a method for a contour finish depth of cuts.example:after roughing cuts of 1 mm. per depth of cut for say to depth 20 mm.I would liked to finish the contour with 4 depths of cut of 5 mm each.but mcam don't allow me provided i finish the cuts with another selection of contour toolpath.i hope you all understand what i mean.thanks.

thanks a lot cam-home,you are an expert,now it really post to +-0.005!.you are a great teacher!
-
i tried all that(screen-configure-nc settings) but i still get readings after posting liked Y 39.072,X-134.208 which is ridiculous for the machine to read.what i mean is round them to 0.005 mm.i wonder how to change settings as suggested by Mr. Dave Eno in the post??

i wonder anybody knows how to round up the values of x,y,z to 0.005mm during postprocess.any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
-
can someone help me i can't postprocess my toolpaths.an error message "Text file not found.Press to continue."thanks in advance.

but i wonder why before Ver 6.0 everything was okay even with negative stock for flat endmills!?
