Hao, The Surface finish Project toolpath will project the toolpath directly onto the surface, so you may see any letters your cutting in Verify if you ran another finish toolpath on it. You need to input a negative stock value in finish project in order to get any cutting. HTH

The denford people are very helpful...try their support site. I needed their assistance once and they responded very fast.
-
In X, it is under Tool Settings, above Stock Setup: Adjust Feed on Arc Move. BTW, I thought it affected all as well.
-
Reading pro/e files directly is a optional item in Mastercam X2.... you can go save as STEP format from pro/e to read to your Mastercam, IGS is another option. HTH

A little more info would help. What graphics brand your using? What's the PC Spec? Does crash immediately during backplot, or during certain movement? Does disabling your graphics acceleration fix anything?

quote: I found a model of a vertebrae in .psi format. Is there any way for Mastercam to use this? info on .psi file It seem to be a 3D point cloud data file.... u can try using the File-Open-File Type -Ascii option...maybe need to simplify the format so its readable

We did a project to produce a sheet metal plate to cover an accident victim that had part of skull (left forehead section) destroyed. We had the 3D scanned image of the skull to work with... i don't know what they use to produce them ( the 3D scanned model). I don't know what happened to the guy either...
-
what toolpath is it? u can share the file in ftp for everyone to acces it.
-
the full CD: u need to get it from ur reseller. Hope things work for you.
-
i got trend micro running here all the time...even during install with no error . if the source installation file is from a trusted source, why not do the repair with the AV turned off? BTW, i did my install from a full CD installaiton.
-
just saw the news, hope you and your family are OK. hopefully the damages are minimal....
-
mind sharing the file.... can't repeat the problem here..... see your Tool Settings and also how you created your Tool (tool def).. most probably its coming from there.
-
there's basic tutorial about managing planes and WCS in this page that should get u going in the right path.
-
your welcome...
-
u need to synchronize the two profiles (chains) so mastercam knows how the surface looks like. break up the circle to the same number of pieces that you have in the obround chain...then mastercam will know your piece 1 from first profile will join to piece 1 of the second profile... and so on
-
what version ur using? turn fastmode off to see which postblock they're coming from....

need advice to cut small plastic feature
Yogesh K. Raman replied to Yogesh K. Raman's topic in Industrial Forum
thanks for the suggestion, Jay went to robbjack's site...looks like custom tooling is the only way to go since theres' no .2mm thin saw. -
I'm having problem finding tooling to cut this on a plastic: the smallest mill I can find is .3mm that does not reach the cutting lenght. Any source? or I need to order custom tools?

converting dimension to machineable entities
Yogesh K. Raman replied to Yogesh K. Raman's topic in Industrial Forum
Took a while to figure it out but I'm doing that way, Thad. The most annoying thing right now is I need to engrave a lot of lines and arcs in hidden line/centerline format and its very tediious Xform a lot of arc/lines segments. working ovetime now... -
converting dimension to machineable entities
Yogesh K. Raman replied to Yogesh K. Raman's topic in Industrial Forum
you are right ajmer, thank you, thank you, thank you..... I can get my work done faster now. thanks for the quick reply! -
I was hoping there was a simple solution to this. I want engrave on a inspection jig some of the dimension entities that I did but I can't pick the item out. right now I'm retracing the dimension using lines, arcs, and notes to machine it out. I tried export/import as .igs and .dxf but mastercam still recognize it as dimension entities. Is there a way to convert the dimension to normal geometry? So I can chain it with contour toolpath....

we had opened a 180 meg stl file in V9 last time. I just pressed Open, went for lunch, and when I came back Mastercam had done its job. We were just preparing the file for RP. the PC had 2 gig RAM and a high end g-force video card. Most probabably a large STL file can be opened... but it would be too slow to do almost anything with it in any software.
-
I tried it for a while in X2 and noticed that if I did not preselect a toolpath operation (no tick mark) Mastercam froze when starting camaix.... on my PC BTW. HTH

I would like to thank CNC Software, Inc. ( Gary Hargreaves, Will Slota and others I can't recall their names) for their prompt action in resolving the .emcx/.mcx file format issue for our educational customer Universiti Kuala Lumpur. The lecturers are currently successfully running lab exams with MAstercam X for their students. Sorry about the confusion on our side.
