    Mastercam over 50,000 RPM?

    Hello, the default machine definition in Mastercam only allows for a maximum of 50,000 RPM for the spindle speed. Is there a way for me to run it at 60,000 RPM? Where can I acquire a machine definition that would allow me to do this?

    Thank you.

    I'm not quite sure how. I tried googling it but couldn't really find much.

    Ok, start by selecting this from the menu, Mastercam version shouldn't matter

    Then click open

    Select your machine from the list

    Once open double tap on the spindle

    Change this value to what you need .
    Once done save as you exit and should be fine.
    When working with already saved mastercam files you may need to reload the machine.
    This is done via files on the OPs Toolbar.
