    Automatic Toolpathing (ATP) automates the process of assigning toolpaths to geometry such as doors used in cabinet making. In this tutorial you will learn how to create a 3D door geometry, create the formed tools needed and machine the door using 2D toolpaths. You will export all the toolpaths to an operation library. You will also learn how to use the Create door command and an excel file to generate the geometry for the other size doors that have the same shape. You will learn how to configure, setup the ATP and link the operations to their specific levels. In the last step, Mastercam will automatically nest the doors.

  6. Hi Guys, I am having an issue verifying ops with custom tools during a transform op in 2018. The tool displays correctly when verifying the operation by itself, but when verifying the op through a transform, the tool reverts to it's Mastercam properties, not it's custom profile. The two pictures below are of the exact same tool and operation. One is when verifying by itself (correct), and one is of the tool when verifying the transform op that uses this tool. I remember having a similar issue in X9 but only when backploting custom tools in a tranform op. Any ideas? this is basically sends us back to X9 if we can't get it working as almost every program we have uses both custom tools and transforms. So far I have tried: -Forced regen of all ops. Same result. -Re-creating tool from scratch. Same result. -Creating new tranform ops. Same result. TIA Mike

  9. Version 1.0.0

    The CAD Import & Mill Advanced Toolpaths Training Tutorial consists of projects and accompanying practice exercises. It is intended for intermediate to experienced Mastercam users who are primarily importing 3D geometry from another CAD software package. It is strongly recommended to have a good understanding of 2D machining (provided in the Mill Essentials Training Tutorial, for example) before beginning this book. Each project explains how to prepare the imported geometry using levels, how to check for problems in the geometry and how to move the geometry to set the work zero. All of the parts are designed with machinability in mind and include suggested fixtures and tool setups. Clearly laid out objectives and step previews make it easier than ever to follow along. This book covers Surface Finish and Roughing toolpaths with an emphasis put on the advanced Surface High Speed toolpaths. Other topics include STL Stock creation and its use in solid model verification and how to create and manage Stock models in the Toolpath Manager. Machine Simulation is used to check for collisions between the part, the tool and any of the machine’s components.

  23. Hello world, I installed 2018 on Friday and am having a tough time figuring out how to move the "custom" keyboard shortcuts over. Is there a way or am I going to have to set it all up again on every release? I was under the impression that Mcam doesn't use the ".kmp" file anymore to move over, but i don't know for sure. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance
