LOL! WTF? You think Mastercam can't do that? Mastercam can do that 18
different ways.

And since about V5.
LOL



lol.
look, I am an underdogger, and joo guys keep making me switch sides post to post.

Yah, mastercam can do it...lol. Since ver 5 as a matter of fact.
pffft.
Saying you can do it, having some half ass code written for it...doesnt make perfect part after perfect part.
Mastercam has been gouging on bull mills since ver 8.
Version 9 was the first bull nose supported mastercam as far as im concerned.

That said....cimatron cant offset for a 2d orbit with ball mills.

of course mastercam cant offset for a 2d orbit period.
But never claims to do so.

Lets talk about mastercam strengths...post processing.
Its based on BASIC, its ascii...well documented...robust, and backward compatable.

Cimatron....its a compiled post.
Relatively simple in the coding circles, but too complicated for the average programmer to deal with.
NOT BASED ON Basic.
DocumentaTION IS LACKING.

Leadins...new mastercam high speed toolpaths move fAR ahead on this. They are equal to UG's leadins.

You mastercam guys want some! lol
