  1. I see the error on canned rough, and the last pass uses the amount to leave on Z as the start AND end points. Just loaded SP1 and noticed it.
  2. When using the lathe canned cycle I noticed that when entering a number in "stock to leave in Z" the last pass also uses this number as a clearance. IS THIS A BUG ????

  6. I did a search for coolant problems (not going on) and found a link from JP. My question is: Is the coolant issue for mill, lathe or both? Just would like to know so I can fix them while we are slow, better now than when real busy. Thanks

  8. Is there a way to show the stock that will be removed in backplot when the red arrow is at the end of the last operation. (without using the verify button)? Thanks in advance

  10. We have 6 seats of Mastercam X2 MR2 amd have no issues with the pro-e converter. Does this PC have less memory than the others?
  11. We have some older Kennametal ones. Still use them on our older equiptment.
  12. Hey Randy, are you the only one here??? LOL
  13. The 3-d sensor work great for 5X work. Used them in Korea making spars for Boeing.
  14. I know of "change recognition" in the "file" pull down. But I don't think it will tell you if its open elsewhere.
  15. Randy, Collin is right, make sure its checked. Happened to me a while back.
  16. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
