I have a PSD file that I'm told is from Powerstation. Can anyone convert this to a MC readable file for me? Thanks
-
IF you have a problem with the config file, I would close MC, go into the /config folder & rename the default configuration file & restart MC. That should create a new default configuration. HTH

I think you need to add your logic to the pdrill_2$ or similar post block.

If you are using the smart dimension mode I believe the s key brings up the drafting globals. HTH

start peck drilling at Z-2.0 but retract to Z.1
3rdstring replied to FP1's topic in Industrial Forum
This is what I use for a secondary drilling op. code: :8800(SECONDARY PECK) (Z=#26 - DEPTH) (R=#18 - RAPID HEIGHT) (Q=#17 - PECK AMT) (F=#9 - FEED RATE) (I=#4 - INITIAL TOOL DEPTH) (J=#5 - JUMP HEIGHT) (K=#6 - PECK CLEARANCE) (C=#3 - CHIP REMOVAL PLANE) #1=#4-#17 IF[#26LT#1]GOTO5 #1=#26 N5G0Z#18 G1Z[#4+#18]F30. N10G1Z#1F#9 G0Z#3 IF[#1LE#26]GOTO90 #2=#1 #1=#2-#17 IF[#26LT#1]GOTO15 #1=#26 N15G0Z[#2+#6] GOTO10 N90G0Z#5 M99 Disclaimer: use at your own risk. -
Thanks Dave.

I have a customer that sent a "dft" file. When I look at the Solid Edge site there are 2 viewers available a V100 & a V20. Does anyone know what the difference is?

Add the no_spc$ command to your code in between the elements where you don't want a space. HTH
-
You want to add spaces$=0 at the beginning of the block and spaces$=sav_spc at the end. As for documentation there is a V9 post reference you can get from your reseller & there is some post documentation in the docs folder of your MC installation. :edit: yea what he said again!!!
-
You have to use the ascii equivalent to get the double quote character For example your code int he post would be code: "FARCALL ", 034, "BACKGROUNDSUBROUTINES.PGM", 034, " ", 034, "CLOCKSTART", 034, e$ "END DFS", e$ HTH :edit: yeah what he said
-
Same as Lars here using filezilla
-
There is a C-Hook on the FTP (Arc Multi Edit) that may help. HTH
-
I do that on a FANUC control with a custom Macro drilling cycle.
-
When you bring in a solid from another program in comes in as a "dumb" solid & is no longer associated with the geometry.
-
AFAIK, thats the it's always operated.
-
I think you'll have to install X3 on the new box to get all the registry settings hasp driver installed etc.
-
You need to look at a transform operation. There is an option to create new ops & geometry. HTH
-
Do you have it set to use tools step, peck, & coolant?
-
This is what I use. look for SyncBack Freeware V3.2.19.0 about halfway down the page. HTH
-
I would cut the letters into a piece of graphite & then EDM the stencil. M2C
-
G94 specifies IPM (G95 specifies IPR) Personally I like the G94 there. We have one machine that if its stopped in a tap cycle (using IPR) it doesn't default back to IPM & thatcan get ugly real quick.
