Hi All
I just had this error 622 c axis engagement come up the other morning. I've narrowed it down that it only does it when its cold. If i run the machine for a few hours on non c axis engagement...

Yes I found that out . What a bummer.

I am not to familiar with the sheet metal functions yet. So i would like some input on the proper way of doing it.
The file is a part that was drawn in an assembly. It is basically a flat base with...

The answer is yes. You will have to create the profiles for your specific application.

In Frame member selection, there isnt round tubing sizes for standard round tubing? (ie. 1.5" x .095, 1.75" x .120, etc.) I see all the metric sizes. Do i have to create those profiles? Or am i just...

Hi guys
What are the steps to flatten out this part into a sheet metal part. I need to print this out and wrap a tube for a cut pattern.

Thank you

bear

I totally agree. i've got a few jobs that require multiple bends at all different angles on a single piece of material. so setting up a library wouldn't be that hard. i've already got one for my...
