I use sintered diamond ring tools to generate spherical surfaces on glass. Quartz/fused silica is very hard glass. our application only requires plunge cuts along the z-axis to generate a curve and...
Thanks, that did the trick. I had to do some research to find that doing it this way requires the target line to have a ":" after the line number.
What can y'all tell me about a dynamyte 2900 3 axis mill. What kind of tolerances can it hold? Is such a small mill rigid at all? It looks old, can you still get parts for it?
In solidworks there is a way to define a line segment with an equation. I need to be able to do that in mastercam and don't know how. I have a very precise equation to define the asphere I need. I...
I get that. However my problem is that creates a simple spherical curve. I need to define that curve as an aphere, like a parabola. A curve that is not spherical.
Thanks for the input. The line to define the rotation is no problem. I need to be able to be able to define an aspheric curve indicated by the attached screenshot.
I have mastercam 2019 and am self taught. I don't have any training but have been able to use youtube to figure out most of what I have needed so far. I need to draw an aspheric lens. My plan was...
I have a 5 axis mill with an 8070 control. When I run a program that engages the c-axis it will line itself up in the obviously wrong position. When I reset the program and restart, it lines up...
I am curious about aquiring a used vertical 3 axis mill. I see a handfull of reasonably priced Fadal VMC's from the 90's on Ebay. What can you guys tell me about these machines? Does fadal still...
