    That it was, it only jumped out at me because, for some bizarre reason, I've been seeing innuendos like a pimply school boy all week. Hopefully next week i'll will be back to adulting. ok thread, you may now return to the topic at hand.

    ... At least the hard of hearing have been considered...
  3. AHarrison1
    ...uhm ok... but which pictures contain traffic lights?
  4. AHarrison1
    Have you checked the tool manufacturer website. With most, if not all, indexable cutting heads they list the replacement insert screws which can be purchased separately.

    ... I've heard some say it feels like someone else...
  6. AHarrison1
    Yes, either contacting CNC Software (Mastercam) or share your file here so other can see what you are seeing. Out of curiosity, what parameters have you set in Surface parameters of the toolpath?
  7. AHarrison1
    this might be something you need to submit to CNC Software. I have tested on my system and it posts out the plunge rate correctly.

    We use Activecool 230 Semi-Synthetic coolant. No issues or complaints to date.

    You could use Manual Entry and add the M21 that way. Also, check with your re-reller to see if the pulse indexer is supported.

    It does what is expected for me, I created paths from 'Lathe - C-axis - Face Contour' and 'Milling - 2D - Contour" The only difference I see between the 2 is start position. *EDIT* I stand corrected, I do see this in Verify but only for the lathe face contour path. The g-code however posts correctly with the tool going to the correct depth.

    Do you have a file to share so others can play along? Difficult to help without seeing what you are seeing. Barring that, I suggest reviewing some training material. This site offers some training material for free.

    Right click Toopath Group-1 Edit selected operations (4th option down) Change NC file name... This will group your paths into one file

    Bernt, I dont know your level of understanding of Mastercam and I am making the assumption that you are fairly new to Mastercam. If my assumption is wrong then I stand corrected, however, I think you will gain a lot of info and guidance from the tutorials found here https://www.emastercam.com/files/category/191-mastercam-2019/. The links are for the 2019 version which is still very similar to 2018. On the right you will find links to imperial (16) and metric (5) tutorials. Good luck!!

    I use https://screenrec.com/screen-recorder/

    Well would you look at that @#Rekd™, you are not considered part of the 'entire Mastercam community'.
  16. AHarrison1
    Compare your geometry selection for op2 and op3. In op2 it shows 2 chains linked to that hole surface, top and bottom. Those chains in op2 are going opposite direction to each other. Once I got rid of the bottom profile the toolpath executed correctly. Delete the bottom chain or re-pick the top edge. Op3 only has 1 edge selected so that one comes out right. I dont have 2018 installed anymore so I cant upload your file back with the fix.
  17. AHarrison1
    This, along with many other toolpath related parameters, are controlled and within the toolpath parameters. For example, the depth that you mentioned is controlled by the Linking Parameters page within the toolpath parameters.
  18. AHarrison1
    Not to take away the target of your rant, however , I find that security/anti virus scanning is my slowdown .
  19. AHarrison1
    Pick the edge not the hole itself

    From what I googled The Mori would typically have A Y in the name Ie Mori Seiki NL2500 Y *** if it was Y axis.
  21. AHarrison1
    What happens when you push the Y jog button. I dont see a horizontal slide below the X axis slide. Those 2 slides would move together to create the Y movement.
  22. AHarrison1
    Too true. I swear there are times I feel that apart from being a CAM software it is also a tool to make sure that you definitely are filling your daily quota of swearwords.

    Welcome to the forum. maybe one of the moderators can delete or lock one of the posts, probably this one as someone has replied to the other with a possible solution.
  24. AHarrison1
    Check out this section of the forum, plenty to sift through. https://www.emastercam.com/forums/forum/10-mastercam-c-hook-net-hook-and-vbscript-development/

    I'm sure the chooks folder resides in C/Program Files/ Mastercam xxxx/ chooks, I could be wrong though. It could also be in a folder called MCNetScripting within the chooks folder.
