multiaxis parallel on the subspindle
suspicious_kompot replied to suspicious_kompot's topic in Industrial Forum
Ah, thank you. Yes that's very helpful. Now my problem is with machine paramaters and using G43.4. I'll give Mazak a call in the morning. Thank you for your help. -

Looks like it would be packed with useful info, but all I can see is the contents. Everything is blank. -

Sorry, that was the wrong toolpath I screenshotted. Been a long night. Here's a z2g of my current file. I abandoned the parallel toolpath for a rotary, but I'd still really like to use the parallel if I can. PARALLEL QUESTION.ZIP -

I'm guessing because I'm using mill-turn I don't have that option. I did figure out that the Integrex doesn't allow milling on the sub spindle (at least not the way ours is set up) So the workaround is to sync the spindles and drive with C. Thus Mastercam doesn't give the option to change the tool vector.

I'm completely lost in these menus. Where would I enter a tool vector? I remember being able to do that before, but it's like a whole new software now. -
I'm trying to do a parallel multiaxis toolpath with the part in the sub-spindle on an Integrex i100. The problem I'm having is I need to lock the 5th axis at about an 8 degree away from the chuck. No matter what angle I enter, it tilts towards the chuck. Toolpath works fine on the main spindle. Is there a workaround for this? I'm just getting back into Mastercam, I've been on NX for a few years now. Alot has changed apparently, anybody know of a good resource to brush up on mill-turn?
