Hi All,
I made a wrong turn at the emastercam.com forum and wound up here .
Anyway... Just started using 9.1 Mill and wire havent done much with Lathe.
I am dying to mess with the VBS stuff, but I know once I start I ill have no life so I am forcing myself not to look at it until I have more time available.
One of the simple things I used yesterday is the Alter endpoints on the lead in leadout page. Probably saved 1/2 hour on a part that had to have machined edgebreaks all over. No extra drive geometry required. Oh yeah and the feed rate on the leads too Its the little things that mean alot. I Like the new verify once I got uset to the zoom thing. Using STL stock files which working well so far. I was away from Mastercam for a little while and at that time I hadnt used the STL files for verify. Most of our models are solid modled in our other CAD system now at each operation for operation sketches so I have solids available to convert to STL for verification and Im really liking that.
Im still staring at the High Feed button every day saying I probably should be using this.
In Wire, Im getting used to the new T/C points and Im glad they added Start point definition in the parameters page.
