I am trying to cut an external thread on a 4 axis mill. I have the 4th about the x axis. No matter what settins I change in the 4axis rotary toolpath page, I get all kinds of weird toolpath. All I want is the tool to come down to the part, sink in .050" and make X and A moves at the same time. It is just a simple thread, but the toolpath keeps sending out retract moves every .050 or so. Anyone have any advice? BTW, this is mastercam X. |
