I started in 74 as driller, progressed through mill (Hori & Vert), slot, shape, turn, surface grind, cylindrical grind, gear cutter, Gear grinder, welder, toolroom manager, cnc mill operator,...

Hi, is this not a contradiction ?, a plane is a flat object (well it is in my world) so cannot follow a 3D shape. Of course you could create one that was flat to the extents of a surface, and the...

If you reeally want to increase your shop performance, just skip to WorkNc fro your local Sescoi dealer. they will show you what fast reliable toopaths you could be using

why not use the icon " no break cutters" it is next to the "do not gouge" button

:rolleyes:

I am confused,,,, if you create a job with 20 toolpaths in does this mean you can only post all in one file. WOW,,,,,

After using the G3 interface from the start of its release, i can say i do not miss the old interface. Grab it by the horns and ONLY use it for a week or so, you wont want to go back.. thats a...

think you need to give a little more information, what is not configurable ???

Hi Guys, we have been testing V21..... AWSOME for speed. this has multithreading and multi CPU support in 64 bit.
Would you believe savings of over 60% on average for calculation times(not all...

Not strictly true, yes it uses 3rd party for some advanced 5 axis sutff, but it also has several very robust procedures that are part of the Cimatron software. If you need more information, please...

Hi, looks like it is still live, although not visited very often. perhaps the WorkNc users are too busy. do you have a specific question that needs answering ?

Hi, you have me even more confused now ?
Why does the re-maching function in the software have an impact on the output to the machine, the control does not know what a remachine or raster finish...

Hi
Of course you are right, i would not expect a lathe post for work for a hass mill centre, or a heidenhain 155 to work well for a fanuc. I thought that was obvious to any one with a little sense....

Hi
Yes i was like you in a previous life, programming and cutting parts, i worked in various factories (shops to you, we buy food from ours) press tool, mould tool and also general machining. Both...

Wow..... What a carry on, so you can continue to use your software. Whilst you are on support with WorkNC, you can get your posts from your friendly Sescoi office. perhaps you should give them a call

If you are looking for a standalone programnming solution, we have posts for most Sodick machines, Fikus software for 2 or 4 axis

Want a free trial of WorkNC ? that will solve your machining problems

Hi, why do you need to worry about arcs and curves, if you have a "half decent" cam system, then it will not need them. That is the hidden problem with cheap cam systems, the demo part goes well, but...

Hi, i think you have overlooked the best system,, WorkNC. it will knock the socks of the ones you have shortlisted, for speed, reliability, quality and freedom of machining styles, (oh yes and also...

Hi, no such thing as a "newbie" you have so much to offer, at least you are willing to look at alternatibe solutions. We suggest you look seriously at WorkNC, simple interface, fast calculations and...

I was a UG user (V13) some time ago, then moved to WorkNC, what a breath of fresh air, so easy to use and more toolpath types to choose from, and less "fresh air cutting".
Liked it so much i now...

Wow,, that Worknc guy must have been let go by now if he is that bad. I have a cusrtomer in the UK who has replaced 3 edgecam guys with a single license of WorkNC, and will provide a written...

Hi Masse, why dont you just call your local Sescoi office, they will help you out if you are on support

Hi Dan
don't worry, nothing major, just testing, retract hights, reccognising 3+2 from same view new post commands etc. , anyhow, V20 is only just round the corner so they tell me :stickpoke.
I...

Hi Dan. Great reply, although i am concerned with some of your Answers :rolleyes:

1). Whilst i agree that the 5 axis takes some getting used to, i think it is great that you don't have to worry...

HI, not sure if i should take offence at the comment " Be very leary of software salesmen. Make sure the software will do what they say it will, and get it in writing when you purchase. I just don't...

It is good to see such differences of opinions, and that is what most of them are, just opinions and with nothing to match the claim. Would it not be a good idea for this discussion to move up a...

Hi, perhaps you should contact your Sescoi office. This product is not available as a download, it is for serious users who have a desire to save money. If you are one of those and you already have...

Hi, i appreciate your comments and feed back. my exeperience was fairly similar. I was working in a mould making company, and they had "graftek" single surface machining on a unix box, no shading,...

Great software, don't you just love something when it is really FREE,,, ok there is an upgrade route for more bells and whistles, But to get you on the road of viewing customers files and allowing...

Hi Guys, glad to see you on the forum, we have it over here in the UK as well, hope to be doing more with it in the future, when the toolshops (in uk they are toolrooms) can understand the value it...
