try this

that is what "blank" does

what about a 2d contour set to ramp not sure if that is what you are looking for or not

sorry misunderstood your question how about this one ajmer_ihs_rev 1_Optirough_Rest_Problem_2020.mcam

take a look at this file all i did was a containment ajmer_ihs_Optirough_Rest_Problem_2020.mcam

the walls of your PAWS are vertical and the floor is horizontal if all you want to do is go around shape just use a 2d contour see attached fileajmer_ihs_Tiger Paw Convex_new.emcam

try copying the workspace file in teh config directory C:\Users\user.name\Documents\My Mastercam 2020\Mastercam\CONFIG

seems that it doesnt like center drills if you change to a ball mill it works right away

First thing to try is deleting the workspace file. Close mastercam and go here It will be in my documents/my mcam 2018/config folder Then delete the workspace file Restart mastercam That might not be the exact path but point you in the right direction anyway

not sure why it's doing that but to get by use the regular lead/in/out settings tangent 100% to get this result

try right clicking and then push this button

it did eat a lot of ram but when i changed to the way i mentioned above it didnt

not sure if this is the issue but i created a pmesh from the last stock model in operation 1 then i created a stock model from that in the 2nd machine group then it seemed to work not too slowly the other thing is that you dont have to have 2 machine groups for this especially if it is the same machine

here are the files converted for you Lower_Guidingblock_deadsolid.stp Stainless pipe.dwg Upper guidingblock deadsolid.stp

yes there is look in the misc values change this to a 1

open the pst file look for this section pwrtt$ # Write tool table, scans entire file, null tools are negative if rotaxis$ > 0 | rotary_type$ > 0 | mill5$ <> 0, [ sav_rot_on_x = rot_on_x output_z = no$ ] if vmc = 0 & tlplnno$ <> 2, sav_rot_on_x = rot_on_x if vmc = 1 & tlplnno$ > 1, sav_rot_on_x = rot_on_x #sav_rot_on_x = rot_on_x #Uncomment this line to output rotary axis value even when it's not used t$ = wbuf(4,wc4) #Buffers out tool number values if tool_table = 1, ptooltable if tool_table = 2, ppredtool if tool_table = 3, pmetatool if t$ >= zero, tcnt = tcnt + one ptravel pwritbuf5 remove the # from this line above #sav_rot_on_x = rot_on_x #Uncomment this line to output rotary axis value even when it's not used save the file and repost

there is a spot calculator built into mastercam that will tell you how deep to go based on the diameter and angle of the tool aswell

you have to have that saved in the control definition

I found I had to restart mastercam in order for that setting to actually work.

its in configuration

this should do it set what you want as defaults click the exclamation mark and then the save to defaults

try this close mastercam start-->mastercam-->advanced configuration and change to reset and say ok

make sure that these 2 buttons are not pressed that could be the issue

take a look at this simplified file i used multi machining regions set it to stay inside and multi air regionsajmer_ihs_C7956902.mcam

try this in all the toolpaths and repost be careful with the results
