Is SC10 compatible with Windows 11?
I have a new computer with W11 and I have SC10 CD and dongle.
My first attempt failed, due to a driver missing problem.

I will be building a new batch of fixture plates and typically set G54 X & Y at the left back corner and use the part for G54 Z.
The fixture plate will mount multiple aluminum part work pieces that...
I had a similar problem; splash screen and stall on PP loading.
Had to replace the controller hard drive and reload PP.
Problem solved.
Went with a small (25GB) faster SSD so loading is quicker...
My Z-axis was starved of from a pinched feed line. It was corrected, but it still does not have much flow.
I suspect the Z-axis oil under gravity returns back to the pump over long periods and...
Remote tank with submerged pump and supply line is routed thru the pass thru in the Tormach stand and to a manifold attached to the head. Straight forward and no mystery there.
The drain return...
I would like to see a new stand with the following features:
Coolant routing path back to remote tank (not under mill)
A dreamliner type chip containment system
Manual tray chip removal system....
To influence the flow toward the drain, adjust the stand out of level and then shim the mill base back to level.
A flexible push stick rod (sheet metal) will clear the underbelly.
Also, when using...
To this I would add your choice of cutters; all cutters are not created equal or optimum for your particular mill.
I found the IMCO Streaker justs zings in aluminum. When other cutters would...
Does it have a PDB? If not that would be in my first wave of funding, if everything else worked.
I am in the Merritt Island area, which is across the state from you.
Drop me a message if you want to talk or visit.
Has anybody else fried their pump control circuit with an after market pump?
Just wondering how common this issue is and if I should put a relay in the circuit.
I am running a 1/3 HP pump on my...
The table wall is interesting and I sometimes use an insert plate, but chip management becomes more frequent and coolant drains get clogged quickly; even with an elevated cylindrical cage over each...
Thanks Keen for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. I find it very educational and actually quite entertaining.
Cheers
Since it is PVC and a test mold; Mill the part in two separate pieces and glue/screw the pieces together. The flat shoulder looks like a good parting line.
A 3D-printer is also an interesting...

That is a wonderful method to monitor the spindle RPM. Do you think it could also be used as a load meter, since it would indicate a drop in RPM at excessive load?
I had trouble with the Z-axis oiler and had to disassemble the fittings and rerouted the oil lines to reestablish flow. Since then I run the Z-axis down and check for oil residue on the exposed...
Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll give the parabolic bit a go, hammer down till it smokes, then back off.
I have a part in production that has many 1/4" thru holes 1" deep in 6061 aluminum flat bar.
The holes can be rough and low quality.
I have been using HHS 1/4" stubby drill bits at 2750 rpm @ 15.6...
Wow, hook me up with one of these. Where can I get this mighty mini hog?
Yea I thought that would be possible for TTS set screw holders. Also maybe use a wide rubber band cut to size and super glued then printed with sharpie pen for ER collet holders? Use colored bands...
I will not pay for an upgrade until SC makes major improvements to the tool library.
I also have the Chek made Prusa i3 Mk2S for prototyping and a Fusion-3 F400 for production with Simplefy 3d CAM. We have a new product to market and it has a small gearbox housing. I was...
Also a film of oil on the parallel mating face works too.
So If I understand this,
The advantage of a fixture based work offset, oppose to a workpiece offset, is that the fixture offset has reference to a part feature, whereas the workpiece offset...
I have workpieces that are processed in successive cuts along a continuous piece of flat bar and then a chop saw separates them; each individual workpiece length now varies slightly.
The next...
We us UHMW in production and when I use to lathe cut it, I found aggressive deep and fast cuts produced the best finish and accuracy. This stuff is soft and flexes about the cutter. Fine cuts DOC...
This is a very timely subject, as I am transitioning to production mode. I have been doing prototype one-ups for a year now and our product just passed beta testing. It is time to shift gears and...
For reasons mentioned above, the calculated tool path may ever so slightly violate the model and flag a gouge.
The tolerance for this flag can be adjusted within the simulation structure view.

The CAD program is Geomagic Design/Alibre 2014 (latest) and the SC Addin Manager is enabled for Alibre.
First problem is that SC10 addin manager incorrectly imports the Alibre model in SC as cm...
