I've never heard of installing ANY cad/cam into a machine control. Is that what you are wanting to do?

Is possible anyone ???

Double sided tape works pretty good .

Sorry couldn't resist .

Sounds like you need a post ??? Call your reseller. I'm sure they'll hook you up.

I believe there is a Beta Forum somewhere here. Don't know how to get ya there, but I'll bet that's where your answer is.

I also just have to change the tool numbers ans H values on occasion. Oh yeah , and if I use the flood coolant, I move the M9 up a couple lines. Keeps the coolant out of the toolchanger.

Do you actually need a safety zone? Try turning it off. If you have clamps or something you need to clear , adjust your retract height.

Hey Matt ,

Stick with it and don't be afraid to ask "dumb questions" especially here . Great group of people here always willing to help.

Unless its , "Can someone give a post?"

Hi Mike,

I'd suggest an apprentice job at a machine shop for starters. Not knowing the basics of general machining practices , the capabilities of each machine , and some hands on experience would make it pretty difficult to program anything ( IMO ).

Then give him the link to the forum .

I wish I knew enough about V9 to feel that I need "X".

+1 Travis,

What's your chaining tolerance set at? I used to have mine set at .0001" thinking my programs would be more accurate.

It's set to .001" now, with no problems.
