I recently added the MillTurn option for a Doosan TT1800SY specifically. I went through online training and bought the book but that only covers so much. I want to pull bar stock out of the main spindle and remain clamped and synced to continue turning while both chucks are clamped and synced together. I went through all the manual part handling options and doesn't appear correct. I am actually getting a crash with bar stock and sub spindle in simulation. When I have the sub spindle chucked on the stock and want it to pull the stock out there is no option to take the stock with it? There is the bar feed option but that is a separate toolpath and wants to feed the geometry after the spindle has already fed out. I know something is wrong here but not sure what the correct process of doing this should be. Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks for the replies. I was just curious for some of the reasoning being that you can build your own machine.

I am working on updating our MasterCam to MillTurn. I am being told I have to buy MasterCam's version of the machine environment even though I have a file of the machine in 3D. Also, I am told the yearly maintenance will go up to include this machine environment. Is this normal/necessary? I really don't see what could change or needing updates with the machine environment?

I'm not seeing an "Activate Solid Selection" in the 2017 version?
-
I am finding somewhat of what I wanted on WikiPedia but that doesn't seam like the place I should have to go for it. I also question its accuracy. Any other info would be appreciated.

Each one is their own individual level? I thought there were different levels of just mill. Like I don't have all the available toolpath options and michine simulator options etc.
-
Is there somewhere on MasterCams website that shows the different levels available to buy? I'm pretty sure I'm at a basic level and curious what my other options are?

Anyone else have the code expert program not able to assign it as the default file for .nc files? When I go to click the 2017 version it doesn't add that one. It adds the old version? I've tried a couple different routes.

I never did find a whole lot of FREE info on this. I'm not working on anything important. I'm just trying to learn how it works as I'm not real interested in paying for something.

What is up with the "Store". The last 2 days when I go to "Buy" the full tutorial it tells me something is wrong?

I believe I found the video from Daniel. If only the IT didn't have that blocked.

That would be great.

What is a cut point? I am doing some of my first EDM programming. I somewhat understand how the EDM works but not the little things a person needs should know to work it into mastercam. I watched every YouTube video on Wire that seamed relevant but didn't get a lot. Just enough to get started. I was hoping there were some better training videos out there that didn't come at a price.

Error:XY = UV height (cannot lie at the same depth)
I'm selecting a start point at different depths and a partial chain. If I do the same thing but select a full chain it will do the toolpath but will then be cutting thru a portion that can not be cut.

I'm new to the Wire portion of X9 and messing around with something. I want to do a 4axis toolpath but not in a closed loop. I try and do a partial loop and it gives me errors. Is there a good place to learn how the toolpathing works? There isn't much on Youtube.

What is the (Machine group properties - Tool Clearance ) good for? I am just curious. Thanks in advance....

Thanks CJep, that worked and also works to measure surface area from a solid.

How do i check the color of a surfacethat has been changed from its original solid color? If I create a solid at a color and change one of its surfaces to a different color, how do I check what that surface color has been changed to? Using (Analyze - Entity Properties) it just gives me the color of the original solid... Thanks in advance

Not what I wanted to hear. I suppose they will want to charge more to do those things. I suppose it was wishful thinking all the capabilities of the machine would be available rite away. It appears like most/all the steps are there to use manually but just do not work correctly to make it happen.
