  1. New machine 2019 (no maintenance) Nothing running in background = 3:32 Outlook, 4-5 firfox tabs, youtube all in background = 3:33 Ryzen 5800X 64G Ram XPG GAMMIX S70 Asus Tuf 3070
  2. Memex I belive has a card for 640 that outputs mtconnect protocol, but if I remeber correctly it is astronomical priced. Matrix controls have mtconnect natively. IMO, realtime data accusation is likely a pipe dream in most shops. There are some good software solutions, Cimco MDC, Merlin(from memex) and a few others. The challenge is every control manufacturer decided to make there own protocol so capturing data is difficult, and what you can capture is different from each protocol/control/hardware.
  3. Something handy for Mobile users I'm onsite alot, but not always connected to my server (via VPN). I was having issues with slow MCX opens, I realized my Recent files list was heavily populated with server locations and windows tries to populate the list until it times out and continues on with the open MCX process. Since there is no setting in MCX to set max number of file history (I couldn't find one) I found the registry entry and modified it. Note this will remove history for open and save as Went from this: (2017 for reference) to this:
  4. 100% G95 works on Haas mills, but ive found an issue on some software versions where certian rounded pitch past 4 places machine freezes, but same pitch calculated in G94 works fine. Non issue in my mill but ive run into the issue in other software versions.
  5. Yasda is sub micron tolerance all day. Probably the best Japanese machine Available IMO. I got to spend a few days with the Japanese apps guys from Yasda on the micro center at Methods a few years ago, was truly impressed with the machines.
  6. Schunk has options to achieve what your after
  7. Where is this available? Prototek has nothing on there site.
  8. FYI, Its in the Operators manual if your looking for a full list.
  9. Why not use 2d oscillate dropdown in contour which is specifically for this application?
  10. Checknout Spiralock threads, its a threadform that locks on itself once enguaged. Used in automotive a bunch, aswell as other uses. Can get taps, threadmills with the thread profile.
  11. Solved my own issue with a little more digging on official forums. https://kb.mastercam.com/KnowledgebaseArticle50124.aspx well at least its in two places on the interwebs now
  12. So I have this customer who is on X7. I usually will program customers parts in whatever version they own for ease of edits or future re-run. As much as I encourage shops to upgrade some just don't have the budget. I've tried numerous times to install X7 on windows 10 x64 laptop, I did a fresh download form Mastercam.com to make sure my install files were good. I have X2, X8, X9, 2017, 2019 installed currently all work with no issues. I found this thread: https://www.emastercam.com/forums/topic/78180-had-a-seemingly-unfixable-install-problem-w-32-bit-x7-hle-2-weeks-of-debugging-later-heres-how-to-fix-it/ Tried this "fix" to no avail. Short of fresh windows install (which i'm likely due for but don't have the time) does anyone have any other ideas? TIA Ray
  13. Fillet Chain R=0.0001, While technically not sharp will undo the larger rads
  14. Set the Roughing Angle +/-180 Degrees to what it currently is (Found on Pocket Parameters Tab).
  15. No problem, likely my rushed wording. Yes I've tried that, was a suggestion I recieved from a friend who is familiar with the Hedenheian.
