  1. NCI is faster. geometry has a noticeable processing time
  2. I don't believe so. Back in the before time you could change their origin and it would mess up all the other planes.
  3. You can make a manual entry and add it to the transform op for a quick workaround?
  4. has anyone used them? how are they? they appear to be owned by IMC they bought CID tool and seem to have shut down production who we have been using.
  5. Yeah when that used to happen I didn't even bother trying to figure it out I just reload the file.
  6. if it takes 10 or 30 minutes to regen and you want to finish a few things and regen when you are finished adjusting or take a break.
  7. I might have seen a confirmation setting in the settings.
  8. Is the box for simulate cutter comp in control checked? You can control wear with wear also
  9. It's programmed the same, using the pitch. I'm not sure if there a a chart with how deep you need to go but you may need to test it out
  10. Our quality systems manager will change the folder name and add confirm new rev or update setup sheets. This always breaks any job setup stl paths.
  11. I almost always use wireframe unless I'm facing or being extra lazy. Making surfaces can help when you bring in a new solid also.
  12. Try unpinning it and then open it a few times before you repin it.
  13. And taskbar settings there's a setting to combine windows
  14. I think I programed it the source path was like a 3plus1 so wcs 5 Axis home/tool plane face 1 /cplane face1
  15. When I used it think the 3 axis original path was set to it's plane for all 3 and the convert was at my 5 Axis home.
  16. yes i belive it was select.., now its operation selection
  17. I try to name the level, like op 3 toolpath data, or more specific and multiple if they start to overlap
  18. 1 and 3 can be changed in the op defaults
  19. The boundary may overlap the stock but It's not accounting for the tool radius. Like said, open the boundary or rough with dynamic. Or old school pocket from outside In
  20. On our newer feelers that have the 31 I believe, when you are in dnc mode you can device change to the card and from the directory set dnc soft key and run from the card. It is not run as a sub program. You can block search like you would in a cnc memory program.
  21. I had a pocket do that years ago. It was good and when I changed the step over from 50 to 55% it went thru the center boss
