lathe threading single point question
smokey_44 replied to Mike@Dive Lab Inc.'s topic in Industrial Forum
check the minor dia by using the 3 wire method , that will tell you if your right or not (at the correct size) Dave -
no just make all the changes u want and exit then it will use those #'s for the defaults , you cannot regen defaults (just used for clearance #'s and stuff like that ) dave
-
what you need to do is look at the nc util, then def ops then defaults , make all your clearance settings and depth of cut stuff there(change whatever you want) save when exiting and it will call those parameters up when you goto do 1 of those toolpaths (rember you have to make the changes to the nessary opertions in the defaults.) what I mean is that if you want changes to appear in "pocket" then change the pocket defaults and same for contour ....drilll ect... dave

thank you thats what i've been trying to say,after testing like all of you said you are correct, BUT if you look in the docs you will see that it DOES NOT say this ....Alt F2 was supposed to be previous view ...I'm sorry for freaking out (going thru some ruff things right now at home with my kid) ,just look at the the docs and you will see that I'm right on that end of things but I do agree with you nopw that it fuctions the way you guys say it does, not like the manuals say. I guess I never payed that much attetion to what it was actually doing , i was just using the command dave

F2.......Unzoom - v9 doc F2,ALT F2..... UNZOOM BY 50% x doc Thats the documention that came with mastercam lool it up .
-
so what they really should have said is that they miss the remap fuction for ****en F2 key right ..... if you read what I said (from install) standard mastercam with no editing of buttons ....its the same xxxx fuction .... dave
-
from default install they are the same xxxx thing from 9 to x , ya you can set it to what you want but from install there the same fuction. "unzoom" , not previous view dave
-
make sure under job setup in v9 you use "from tool" in offsets and feed , if you select that option then it will use tool #'s from you standard lib. dave
-
my v9 and X are the same F2= unzoom ???? dave
-
what ??? what are you guys on about ??? F2 works here with X dave
-
I would say use "scallop" as a last resort to anything cause it outputs huge long time wasting paths when others will do , try to stick to parallel if you can or coutour finish for z cuts, remove small corners or rads in part by using pencil passes then finish with bigger cutters then finish small rads with leftover machine Dave
-
I worked in a blow mould shop with a fadal.....now I call that machine a FATAL... one night we set up triple cavity mould , watched the roughing and the start of the semi finishing, then we left for the night, next morning the machine had finished the cavities alright ...problem was it finished them 1/2" off in the X axis.....lol that wasn't funny at the time though...the FATAL people told us the macgine had "lost" its machine origin ?????? lol Dave
