Can anyone help me on defining a toolpath on mastercam lathe (no live tooling) to create a screw extruder from an imported parasolid file from SolidWorks?
I tried to rough chain it with solids, but it gives me an error "unable to extract lathe profile from solid".
Here's a picture of what it looks like: http://www.robertbarr.com/images/innovation.jpg
Is it also maybe possible to custom create this with the thread toolpath on the lathe?
