Mastercam 2024 New Feature Breakdown Part 2 | Webinar
Ive been using Mastercam since X9, for mold making. Amazing product. I am just learning mill-turn and this was an extremely helpful video!
Thanks!
Amazing ❤❤❤
I’m working on a solid model, creating curves, but none of the curves lineup to each other, at different depth different angles, there is nothing flat or square about this part. It’s all radius, angles fillets. I’m having a problem with the edge curves.
Love the content and your videos have helped me a ton. I would love a video diving a little deeper on tool axis control. Specifically on the creation/generation of wireframe “lines” to drive a tool in tricky 5ax spots. I’ve had some luck but I’m not sure if I understand the mechanics of creating the extra geometry for the “lines” section.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Thanks 🙏
Good Information about the new options to work wit it...
Thank you for this information
Wonderful! I do however want to see chained direction being enforced. Most of the time “deburr” is going conventional and most would prefer climb. Is there a setting I’ve been missing? I sure hope there is. :-)
As always, Mcam bringing us useful tips. I recommend the Streaming Teacher channel as well.
Thank you @magaraoleandro! We are always happy to help people understand Mastercam's features better. Fun fact: Streamingteacher was actually our sister company for 18 years! Streamingteacher's videos and webinars were made by us until we sold the company to SolidProfessor last year. So if John's voice sounds familiar, now you know why! 😉
glad i watched until the end, the critical depths checkbox will save me a lot of frustrations!
Thank you so much ❤
1:15:00 i would love to see the ability to only recalculate the leads and connection paths
12:30 why would i need to ramp in in this example? Looks to me like it could be entered from the outside.
Hi @ipadize! In this example, we're using the stock option, which limits the containment option to "stay inside". You can get around that by using a larger containment boundary, but we were trying to show the difference in helical entry here, so that would defeat the point to come in from the outside. But yes in this type of scenario, I would probably try to overdraw the containment and give myself enough room to enter from the side if possible. Thanks for the question!
Thank you so much!
THANKS
You know what’s really helpful, is to slow down when making this tutorial so others can see what your clicking on and where, in order to understand what you are doing. Not everyone is a Content expert like you, and some of us are playing catch-up to current versions of MCX like myself. If you want us to watch your content, slow your roll. 😅
Thank you for your feedback! We'll be sure to take it slower with our clicking in our future videos 👍
Thank you for your time ⏲️ it was very helpful 😊
Thank you
Awesome 👍,
AWESOME
Massive improvement at 31:33
this is a great feature. does it work if you have lathe toolpaths in a different machine group as well?
Great addition, very useful.
Amazing! B-axis Toolpath
Thank you so much!
I've been using this for years.
Thanks
John Stauffer for President!
Nice, love that it follows the current wcs.
Awesome
Nice job
Great lesson thank you. Go Northwest!
Promo-SM
Super
Thank you for this information can you make a detailed video for each plane auto created by mastercam in mill turn environment 😀.
This is one of the most helpful Mastercam videos on RUclips.
awesome
Fantastic thank you
can send you the file
Hi I have a question on solid how to blank out a hole in a slot. I can send you the file
Hi Joe, Can you explain a bit more what you mean by "blank out"?
@@themcamnw I machine mold cavities. In some cases the water line goes partially trough a pocket for cooling. Most of the pockets are machine with surfacing so i need to create a surface on the partial water line. It can be a bit of a pain. I was told that you can go into modify and remove the geometry. Also I was told that there is a way that you can bring the solid work info into the master cam then go into solids and turn off the specific future. I am running master cam 2022. I not sure if can send you the solid file i am talking abot
@@joesebalj1962 you can try to delete the pocket/hole and see if it works for your part (make a copy of the original before)
고마워요♡
Thanks
Amazing video, Jon. Great insight.
What if my solid extension is parasolid. ? Is that still know in feature history ?
Hi Hein AZ, No, you would not see the feature history, as Parasolid file types come in as "dumb" solids (a solid body without any feature definition or history). However, any additional modeling done in Mastercam to the model would have history. I hope this answers your question!
Super excited about everything new in 2022. Fantastic video, John.
Thanks
haha awesome! can i buy it with my air money?
