Today for #MastercamMonday we revisit some Wireframing basics in Mastercam 2020. Interested in more Mastercam training? www.camtechfl.... #Mastercam #Mastercam2020 #CAD
So I have been messing around with the demo for Mastercam 2020 and for some reason when I import a model from creo to master cam I cant change the WCS. Is there anyway to change the existing WCS?
There's probably multiple ways to do it, but I can tell you what I would do and hopefully it may give you insight: go to your planes manager and right click the top view with your mouse. Go to duplicate. At this point a new view called "top1" should appear. You can change the name of it if you want also. Right click the "top1" plane and select the "edit" option. At this point the WCS will appear and you can edit it on screen as you desire or manually enter the coordinates in x,y, and z. What I usually do is hover over the center of the WCS location on the screen, click it, drag it to the part, and then modify it as desired. Hopefully this helps, I know I'm not the best at explaining stuff. I've been using Mastercam for 10 years and I know it pretty well but even after ten years I still don't know every in and out. It's a good software though, it's very efficient if you know what you're doing and how you want to do it.
Hi Steve I'm enjoying your I'm a beginner I just uploaded the mastercam home study version my question is I have a laptop do I need to mouse and if so what kind do you recommend once again thank you for sharing your knowledge Tony from Canada 🇨🇦
Hi, Thanks for the Tutorial. On My mastercam, I dont see the little tips display on the screen saying Select first endpoint then select second endpoint. How to I get these tips to display like yours in MC 2020?
Does anyone know where i can find mastercam for dummies , Total Novice here , I have downloaded the demo version , but do not know how to set it up or get started , I have been programming on machines since 1980 but cannot get my head around this , can anyone help
I make a program in mastercam and take it in my pendrive, when I searched, system show" search error" in Mitsubishi m80.
Great video I was just wishing you were playing party like it 1999 in the background. You know the world has switched to parametric and beyond
Dang man, your pupils look so dilated it looks like you were doing another kind of line before filming haha
What's the best way to convert splines to arcs and lines
For some reason I can't get the cross hairs to appear. Configuration, Grid, No option to show ??
On the View tab on top ribbon, click "Show Axes". You also have a drop down there to select which axes you can show.
