  1. Re: milling on sketch like creo trajectory milling

    I think I can get you going with a similar operation in NX. In NX you could cut those faces with one operation in NX, it's called Z-Level Profile. It is solids based so you don't even need any...
  2. Re: milling on sketch like creo trajectory milling

    Hello,
    I am not familiar with Creo trajectory milling. If you describe it I may be able to recommend something close in NX.
  3. Re: Need help: Posting code to fanuc controller "Ps4 invalid break point of words"

    Sounds like a syntax error.

    Where in the program did it encounter the error?
    Can you have lower case letters in this control?
    Did you exceed a comment length?

    Re: how to use the laptop mouse pad

    I would try a mouse button with a modifier key such as ctrl, shift or alt. It's a common function with numerous cad cam systems and the closer you emulate a desktop the happier you'll be. Can you...

    Re: Most stable versions of mastercam?

    I forgot to mention the really big snafu for us was back in 2017(?), MC changed something in the file structure such that many older operations would red check. At first we thought no biggie but then...

    There's plenty of issues out there that people talk about. It's typically a fraction of the users complaining about it and the other users that have issues suck it up because they don't feel like...

    If you have Siemens support did you try looking on their support site? I am talking about the old site which has legacy downloads, not the newer Post Hub site. The old site has a huge Post Builder...

    As for GPU processing...Recently when we were upgrading the last of our MC...
  11. Re: Advise on 90° corner feed rate adjusment (slow down)

    I'm a NX user and I am unable to reach my MC user colleagues at the moment, sorry! In cam there are typically at least two ways to do manipulate tool loading and a 3rd which includes a 3rd party...

    I don't have experience triggering Traori but have you looked at the default posts for reference? I have NX 12 and 1899 installed and noticed there are no Sinumerik posts in 12 but there are some in...
  13. Re: MC V9.1 partially locks up after sitting for a while. Win7-64

    It very well could be sleep or hibernate. I assist our site's IT manager and we have just about all those features turned off because the have a habit of messing with applications.

  18. Re: Mastercam Stock awareness problem in 2017-2019

    Re: Divides the NC program

    Another method you can use to split operations is Divide. However, it can only divide an operation by time or distance, not by size.
