    They said we would be able to machine 2 inches of it. We got a model of the mytrunion7g. It definitely fits on there. But I guess it's got a different control and no pallet system
  2. Leon82
    Okay I will check those in the morning
  3. Leon82
    It was unchecked.
  4. Leon82
    We would have to get other work to justify the machine. And the pallet would become the tooling.
  5. Leon82
    Ok, I'll try that tomorrow Thanks!
  6. Leon82
    It does post arcs if I post thru mastercam
  7. Leon82
    Ok I'll check it out. Is says arc when I back plot it. I'll try posting as a regular program

    The modify check boxes are all off. I don't see a setting for auto mods in the format when hitting shift. We are using 2018
  9. Leon82
    Is there a setting for this?
  10. Leon82
    We are seeing how much can be machined off of it. We only need an inch
  11. Leon82
    About a third of the y-axis travel is below the pallet face. We are looking at the machine for a project but we don't have enough y-axis travel to reach the top of the part.

    I've noticed swarf doesn't like going at the sharp corners I always try and put a little bit of a radius. I don't do it very much but when I do I tend to make my branches so the tool is in the vertical position of the corner it needs to be before it reaches it
  13. Leon82
    If you're lead in at a .001 it has no way of comping more than +.001. The same thing will happen if you have an internal radius smaller than your positive cutter comp diameter. Either use stock to leave or use the internal corner radius dialog box. Or use a longer lead in. Or indicate the endmill on so it's not running out This is why I use circlemill as it is usually bulletproof for this as far as lead in goes You can drop down tool size also it'll give you more room
  14. Leon82
    You can't use a lead in overlap with a spring pass. Also on ramp contours spring pass is disabled

    ThTs what we do. Then when you call the treadmill in your pitch is set and active teeth is set if it's more than one tooth
  16. Leon82
    Morph is good for making symmetrical patterns
  17. Leon82
    You can always draw your own pocket path geometry
  18. Leon82
    Do you have the shorten lead in checked?
  19. Leon82
    Try making the diameter an even value. It looks like it's rounding funny
  20. Leon82
    The threading length will determine the active teeth on the thread mill page and will lock out the pitch parameter. A single point you can adjust the pitch in the thread mill screen
  21. Leon82
    Divide 1 inch by the metric pitch. 1 / (1.5/25.4) You can type the whole formula into the field box
  22. Leon82
    I using use a highspeed path than finish with a pocket path. You can use zigzag in old pocket for straight lines
  23. Leon82
    Advanced configuration from the start menu mastercam folder. Then click on reset navbar or something like that. You can try holding shift as you open mastercam also. I know it works for Camplete like that
  24. Leon82
    I use it all the time also.
  25. Leon82
    The new ones make it easy with the setting and timer page. You don't have to drag out the book anymore.
