  1. Thanks for that , will give it ago. The reson for no leadin befor arc was human error and we are aware that there was supposed to be one. Cheers
  2. Hello All 1 contour toolpath in a group of about 20 other toolpaths did not have line in leadin selected therefor no G41 was posted before arc movement and cutter went 1/2 dia to far into part. Verifyed OK. Should we get an error message from post,backplot or verify? Any ideas on how to stop this happening again. Thanks
  3. Used a floating tap holder in the past for similar task. Worked well. Cheers

  14. We run production ISO on Mazaks and the only way we have found to do what you want is to run sub prorams from a Mazatrol main. Each part has its own WPC and same tool is run over all parts before tool change. Cheers
  15. Any way of changing position of Regen toolpath box in ops manager. On a big job its to close to backplot when all ops are higlighted. Cheers
  16. The pictures are ours and we dont do to bad . Im interested in whats available outside my cube. Cheers
  17. We are using M/cam to program the parts but any info,tooling recomendations,websites on technics,ect would be much appreciated. Cheers and thanks
  18. Something bloody strange going on. If I create a rectangle in a new drawing and pocket it the tool path is visible until escape ect. If a drawing is opened and toolpath generated path is not visible. even if i draw a rectangle in exsisting drawing and pocket it no tool path visible until backplot. Tryed all suggestions with no luck.
  19. Jim Ive tryed that but all paths are shown. I just want to see path when its generated without having to backplot. Cheers
  20. I dont know what I've done but when creating or regening tool paths I have to back plot to see the results. The used to stay on the screen until hitting escape. What do I need to have checked in order to only see tool paths after creating,regening and backplotting. Thanks in advance.
  21. Can anyone recomend a brand or supplier for free machining SS in 303 or 304. Plate or flat bar , finish size is 4.5"x3"x0.25". Thanks in advance
