![]() He handed me off to one of his head engineers when he went on vacation. This time I got in touch with head of development for IMSI. So I called them, and for the first three times, I got no help, and no call back like they promised. They informed me that the CAM portion was taken over by a new tech support company. I let ACAD do all of the fillets etc.īuckled, and called tech support. ![]() I was fairly certain that the drawing was good, but just to be sure it was not my fault, I totally redrew everything. Hope something I've said will help you out in your circumstances All fillets and chamfers are created afterwards, again using automatic trimming of the block drawing I roughed in. This means roughing in a drawing in sort of what I would call "block form", using horizontal and vertical lines to represent every intersection of the part, and trimming these entities to one another to create chains that are perfect. In order to produce perfectly trimmed drawings, I rely on geometric construction methods (but I am not using your software). Never rely on a chain gap setting to "get you by" because something has to give when it comes to accurate nc output.Īlso, try drawing at a higher accuracy, say one order of magnitude more accurate than your controller uses. So, check your drawings carefully for accurately trimmed entity chains. Computers don't generally make mistakes with numbers, that's what they do best However, I find it unusual that it would be posting faulty code from a perfect drawing. I don't have any experience with that software. Does it steam anyone else to give $1000 for a piece of software, and then have to pay $10 a call for tech support? Especially when its about a bug or glitch that they know about, but do not bother to tell you about in the release notes. I could call IMSI, but I really don't want to give them $10 to tell me that there is nothing I can do.īTW, just to get this off my chest. So my question is this: Has anyone else ever had this problem with TurboCAD/CAM? If so, were you able to fix it, or find a work around? If so, what was it? 012", more than enough to cause my control to crap on itself. I have sat down and checked the radei by hand, and have found variances of as much as. ![]() This is a good thing, this way you are always turning the radius you wanted, but the pinch happens when TurboCAD/CAM generates my G-Code. If any of you are familiar with this control, you know that it checks G02 and G03 radei, and if they don't match down to three decimal places, it faults. I'm using TurboCAD/CAM to produce G-Code for a MHP/Moog Hydra Path 3 control. ![]()
