Wholly variable tool axis batman!
It seems the more complex the toolpath, the easier it is to code up. And
that's no exaggeration!
The ease of programming 4-5 axis, rotary table, etc... is insane. To think
a few months ago I was running an old version of mastercam without the
solids, on a junk ass 2.3 gig comp with a gforce 5 on it, programming for a
haas. 1 lousy gig of ram!
I can never go back!
I got an offer for 3 more bucks an hour days than I make on nights and I
turned it down monday.
I'd expect raises where you are after you work out well. You still
have LOTS to learn <g>.
They have mastercam x and a couple of fadels, running
on a dell making mostly 2d stuff.
NO FRIGGEN WAY! No more crappy old software and machines limited to 3 axis
again. I am never going back. Shit, I'll make programs with gwbasic before I
go back to those conditions again.
Finally...After all this time, I am thankful to GOD I was fired! Took me a
while, but I understand it was a good thing now. To watch a micron 3+2
cutting my electrode at 150ipm on 5 sides with 700 ipm rapids is....fuck...I
pissed myself again just thinking about it. :)
Try telling Michael about more then 3 axes & a ball endmill !
Unfortunitely my wife got the message and is now harping on the extra money.
She is all about the money. But in her defence, she never made a micron 3+2
dance the jig. Damn, NX RULEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now you need to start thinking of generating shapes with shaped tools
in full 5 axes ....
Bill T & John C may be able to lead you on with some pics ...
Remember developable surfaces?
