Could be graphics driver needs updating, or look at screen resolution.
You should be able to use chain in the grooving toolpath and then set your step over in your roughing page.
I would do a peel mill down the center and then wire frame toolpaths on the sides. Can easily be done with mill level 1.
The spindle load is around 40-50%, using coolant, I could go faster but it tends to start showing its lack of stiffness and you start getting chatter in the cut. It is a toolroom mill to begin...
I use a 2.5" five insert face mill, .04-.06 depth, full width in 303 stainless. 525-625rpm 7.0-8.5ipm.
Just wandering if the RW15 is still going strong or have you had any issues?
I believe you can bring in a title block when you use the Solid Layout feature to generate a drawing. The kicker is you have to have the solids option, but you can save your own title block and...
You can give Harvey tool's a call, they make tappered ballnose emills for molds, work's very well.
Greg if you haven't already gave the job to someone, I would be interested in looking at you parts also. Just shoot me an email [email protected].
Thankyou for your time.
Ricky Thomas...
Yeah, I wish they would come up with a better way to do this. To many steps and easy to miss something and have to go back and try again. It really sucks if you have a horizontal mill and trying to...
Can you put the G08p1 at the begining of the sub then put the G08p0 before the M99.
Mastercam V9 is such a blurr, Haven't used it in years.
Have you tried force tool change when starting the secound op if your using the same tool?
That is what I love about Mastercam, it is almost like a family. Most everyone will go out of thier way to help. I am starting to get into the 2D high speed tool paths, anything I should look out...
Did you import the model or create it in MCX.
I down loaded the pre release and it is awsome, you also get Engraving for free. The verify is so much faster, and i really like the new 2d high speed toolpaths. I only have level 1 but this is...
http://www.eapprentice.net/lesson_6.html Review the videos They will teach you everything you need.
Your tool and contruction planes looked ok, so all I did was regen toolpath and it came out ok. I removed the first practice path and I added a chamfer toolpath just so you can look at it. I just...
I second the use of X+, it is one of the best setup sheets for MCX2. Do a search on emastercam, there is also alot of info to help set it up the way you want it to output.
You can view some videos on youtube, the XR3 vid's are in Japanese though.
I bought Mill Level1 for 5k, solids add on for 1k, and price goes up from there. Mill level1 gets you solid toolpath verification, and other useful stuff. If you need to do simple surfacing...
Wow, I'm sorry you are having such bad luck with your install. Is the installer alright, man you never want anything like that to happen. Did you get the machine installed, an up and running?
In Ga. my power company said $100,000 per mile. I live .5 miles from the nearest source. :(
Give us an up date, have you gotten a new machine, have they came and picked that one up? I feel sorry for all the crap you have went through, I know that you didnt ask for any of this. If that...
I have ran lathe's with Seimens controls and they diff. take a new mindset. These were mid nineties Hyundia Hit 15's and 18's. After some seattime I found that you could do almost anything with the...
You can also go into the Help/Cal menu and page down to the speed and feeds cal. I used it the other day with some D2 on my TM-2 and it was pretty close. I like that you can put in the chip/tooth,...
So you are trying to set machine Zero-position, I have an O&H ACT-20 with the Fanuc 18t, I had to set my home position a few months ago. I wrote done the steps and I will find them and get back...
It does sound like you may have gotten a lemon. Is there anyway they can get another mill in there. I'm afaid just the lost production time would almost run me out of business. I wish this would...
The easy way would be to use a 2d contour path to mill off the leftover stock.
