#MASTERCAM 2019 EXTEND POCKET TOOLPATH CODE#

IMHO, other than Mill/Turn and doing some edge breaks,В Esprit blows donkeys in comparison. Tool Path Drill toolpath 2D High Speed Toolpath Contour Toolpath Pocket Toolpath Face Toolpath BAB II MENGGAMBAR 2D DENGAN MASTERCAM 1. A 300k file will execute much faster than 6 meg file. Edit Trim/Break Trim/Break/Extend and ensure the option to Trim is enabled. I found it interesting that the large file only had onlyВ a couple of minutes of rapid time where the more efficient program had like 10 minutes of rapids. Contour remachining toolpath to cut the material which the open pocket left. With our current orders it was close to 1,000 hours savings for the machining, for each part!В Other than just a bad cutting strategy in generalВ theВ biggest factor in the savingsВ was a 6 meg file vs 300K and the fact that theВ large file cut air most of the time repositioning itself for the next cut. The Dynamic Mill toolpath machines pockets, leftover material. After reprogramming with proven strategies it was under 3 hours. All Mastercam 2019 for SOLIDWORKS tutorials have the following general requirements. Out of the box it was 16 hours cycle time and after weeks of trying to get it to run we finally got to do a little optimization and got it like 9 hours. We had a couple of parts that we farmed out to an experienced programmer that used all these new school paths.

I do know though there are a lot ofВ programmers out there that areВ either lazy of just don't know cutting strategy and have to take what the CAM system gives them. But then again I don't work for a mom & pop where the owner is looking over my shoulder constantly so I understand many guys are programming parts they'll never see again where it's more important to just crank it out. IfВ I spend a little extra time in the CAM system it doesn't cost the company hardly anything in comparison to wasting time at the machineВ with someВ program that took only 30 minutes to create.

For me it's not about how fast I can create code but rather getting the technique proper and not wasting time at the machine. I guess I'm a nobody, IВ prefer to draw my own geometry to dictate the toolpathВ the wayВ it needs to be notВ the way MasterCam decides it wants to create it, it's called control, but then again I'm old school. Nobody wants to draw additional geometry just to get a toolpath outside of an 'open' edge. Without opening a huge can of Esprit vs Mastercam.
