The Dynapath "Customer Information Manual" IS you programming manual. You will need to reference the "Installation" manual for the start up process and basic machine settings (setting machine on X/Y...
Don't know about USB as I haven't tired it. But I did set mine up with a wireless serial device server. An ethernet SDS could also be used with a correct serial cable (same with wireless)....
I have been using TurboCAD since version 3. No expert but gets the CAD work done. I now have a 2.5d mill and have tried TurboCADCAM to make machine code. I have tried v12 and now v15 and their...
After a number of un-answered additions to my TCC support ticket, I finally received a reply today. They will not be fixing the v12.5 update patch to allow the CAM to function properly. The say the...
Finally got a response from TC support after months of neglect. Essentially their v12.5 patch causes issues with the CAM plug in. They have no plans to correct the 12.5 patch so you have the option...
Just a thought but even though the CAM may not make a ramp start you could always set up a plane change like XZ and ramp or arc into your material, then switch planes back to XY and do your contour. ...
You can likely get a low cost version of the CAM plugin (ebay) for V12. I will tell you up front that if you updated v12 past 12.2 (12.5 update) the CAM will have an issue with showing the green...
Quick follow up on this issue...TCC has totally ignored my case number and has not followed up on the issue or replied to several posts to the case number...they did change the "status" to "resolved"...
Update: From the beginning of April to the end of May, TurboCAD support has not updated the patch issue I found, doesn't respond to questions on the ticket and neither does any other part of...
Mobil replied to my inquiry regarding Mobilux #46 ... seems they don't even have any references to that product, not for a long time and maybe not in this country. Also indicated that machine...
The #46 appears to be the stuff used in typical ball bearing applications and a bit thinner than #2 grease...less filler? Have seen similar used in air tool bearings. Anyway, sent a message to Mobil...
I have the X / Y zerks...still trying to figure out what Mobilux #46 grease may be...
Funny the way mfg. pick a brand/model of lube instead of a defining number.
www.surpluscenter.com often has some gear motors of various sizes/types that are usually a pretty reasonable price. Something could be rigged up to reduce the crank work on the knee. You could play...
I tore my Showa lube pump down yesterday for a basic cleaning and also the filter and meters...oil flow seemed proper and everything has oil on it but the reservoir and filter had some trash in it. ...
I am going through the same basic process. The main thing is what will you be cutting with the mill? It seems keeping a short or fairly equal gage length to keep the tools within the Z range would be...
I am not sure of the purpose of the odd switch either. Sheet 3 about mid page off the 24V transformer there is a cabinet disconnect circuit (door switch). It says "Shunt Trip" as part of that...
I also recently bought a '91 325 Journeyman. There is nothing in the maintenance about lubing the spindle. The oiler only goes to the outer part of the spindle for axis motion. Seems I read the...
Have a new-to-me 325 Journeyman with Dynapath 20 control. Found a bad fuse on the spraymist power (spraymist unit replaced with new old stock unit...but old unit didn't appear to have any...
I was just pointing out the compatibility issue with the CAM so some poor sole doesn't buy a CAM CD and find out it doesn't work with their version of TC. I just got a CNC mill and hope to get some...
Take a minute to send an email to Turbocad support. http://st.imsisupport.com/index.php?d=4&Next=Next&pf=t
They didn't seem to be aware of the issue...but have recreated the same problems I had....
For anyone that may be looking at this...from what I have been told, the CAM has to be upgraded to each new version of TC...so you old version of CAM will not install on a new version of TC.
You can get TC and CAM on ebay for a pretty resonable cost. There are also training books for a fraction of the normal cost. I have been using TC for many years and it has way more function that I...
I was wondering what version you were using. I recently bought 12.2 and CAM off ebay. Being a dutiful software user, I downloaded and installed the V12.5 update patches. I have been using TC for many...
Got a response from TC support today...after the typical, it must be your fault volley...and they recreated my issue by installing the TC V12.5 patch. Seems the CAM is not compatible in ACIS somehow....
Removed the CAM and CAD again. Located all the ISMI rolders related to v12 and deleted those (to eliminate the .dat files and other settings it keeps...even on version changes...like update patches)....
Removed the V12 TC, reinstalled, installed V12.5 update, installed CAM plug in...same thing. The 3d Geometry buttom stays on constantly. The check in the part set up screen can be removed but is...
Just started to use the TC CAM plug in and noticed the green material removal lines are missing. Clicking the button that is supposed to turn the lines on and off blinks the drawing but doesn't...
