Hi all, I used a swarf 5th axis toolpath to chamfer the outside of this unique shaped part. It looks okay in verify and simulation but i noticed these little jitters during the machine simulation. I am hoping one of you generous mastercam experts would be willing to shed some light on better ways to do this or how to fix my current approach. Here is a link to the zip2go if you're interested in lending a hand https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/18p67EguB-cVAMcBn51taQRgUPCWOBO0J?usp=sharing. non experts are welcome to help as well. Thank you

Hello. Im running out of ideas so i decided i would ask on this forum about my "experiance". Recently we've come across an interesting chamfer feature after trying to chamfer the other side of the part (2nd operation)...and its repeating on every part. The chamfer is missaligned . I dont even know how to explain it... lets say im trying to chamfer a square and a hole 0.5mm equally. When i do it on the first operation that works perfectlly fine but after the second operation( when you turn the part around for the facing and chamfering the other side) the chamfer is wrong to say the least . The chamfer is ...well...like it would be offseted or something and the direction excludes the operators mistake/inacuracy of positioning. for example it would be -1.5 in +y direction(biger champfer on north side of square) and none existent in -y direction on the outside conture(square) and completly opposite on the inside(hole) , -1.5 in -y direction(biger chamfer on south side of the hole). Im using mastercam x9 to program and haas vm3 is the machine. Tool is D=8 carbide chamfer mill and up until a week or so ago...everything was how it was suppose to be. The programed code is excatlly the same as it was the tool was replaced but there shouldnt be a difference. The anomaly just makes no logic to me. Perfect chamfer on first operation and this ...abomination on second. Can anyone shed some light on me ?
