Mastercam Tech Tip Video Date Posted: 2010-02-17 Authored By: In-House Solutions
We are big fans of anything that can save us time and the tip we have for you today does just that by showing you how you can speed up the verification process in Mastercam.
Instead of setting up the stock as a rectangle or cylinder, Mastercam has the ability to let you establish a custom stock setup. This not only gives a more accurate visual representation of how toolpaths would run on more complex parts but acts as a time saver as well since there is less stock to watch your virtual tool chew through. (You don’t have to verify the roughing toolpath every time.)
This video will demonstrate two different ways of specifying a model to represent your stock setup. It also demonstrates how you can save a verified model to use as a stock model. Be sure to grab the MCX files to go along with this video if you want to give it a try yourself! (Grab the MCX files here)
