Hi Guys,
Question.
Is there a way to "not" show arc center points on the screen?
I have a part with a mass amount of radii in and around the part.
When the curves are shown it looks like a crazy point cloud.
Very confusing .
Thanks
Hi Guys,
I'm looking but can not find an answer.
In the 2019 ver there is Multiaxis Deburring which Looks and posts great (yet to run it)
My Question is, I get this question during the posting process and I'm not sure what its asking.
I've given it different answers and its posted different results.
I'm just looking for understandable info on the question.
Thanks
Hi Guys,
New at 2019 and I believe there are some switches I need to flip.
I have the same file saved in 2018 version and in 2018 I don't have this issue.
on our 5 axis, I made a peck drilling operation. The next operation I made a transform/rotate operation to drill same hole 180 degrees on part.
Issue;
When I highlight the 2 operations to watch the tool run about 12 other tools highlight as well.
This is with 2019 on 2018 it only highlights what I ask for.
Switch somewhere ???
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Question;
Is there a way to do Dynamic Milling but have the tool retract above part and go to next position rather then backing up at depth?
Thanks
Hi Guys,
Why does my 2018 MasterCam not maintain the same file name thru all the operations?
On 2017 I never had an issue.
When I go to post it wants to make numerous programs because of this.
I now go and highlight all prior to posting and give it name that they all change to but I didn't need to before.
Could it be a setting somewhere?
Thanks
Hi Guys,
sense I went to 2018, the simulator acts a bit different then 2017.
I used to press the end button on the simulator. It would do its thing behind the scenes then show the finished part.
Now It doesn't cut the part but shows the tool motion.
this really slows it down from 2017.
Just me or there a setting somewhere.
Thanks
Hi Guys
Is it me or ???
With 2018, When I use verify (With collision on) 90% of the time it stops and says I crashed into something.
The tools are correct and sometimes the tool is 1/4" away from the part. There is nothing touching anything.
Please advise.
Thanks
P.S. I have all the same settings as I do in 2017 and it has no issues.
No. I made a new empty level and hid all others but it remained.
It has the different colors for rapid, cutting .... but there are no elements.
Can't analyze or delete. its just visual.
Hi Guys.
Starting to use 2018 more.
I'm sure its a setting somewhere but I ran a tool thru backplot and now I have phantom tool path stuck on the screen.
I rebooted system, restarted MasterCam but still there?
Thoughts?
Hi Guys,
I'm hoping someone out there can help.
When I use thru coolant. What do I need to change where both thru and standard coolant both post out?
( milling)
Thanks
