This blog post will explore how to use the Mastercam 2023 Drill toolpath. This new toolpath will allow you to edit toolpath motion for any single selected entity in that operation. Typically, when using Drill and working with a solid, you can use the Calculate incremental values from holes or line option. This allows you to have multiple depths in a single operation. When you only have wireframe geometry this can be a little trickier [...]
In past Metrology Minute articles, we discussed the ability to import PMI data into Control X using the File, Import PMI option. As a reminder, PMI (Product Manufacturing Information) allows dissimilar systems to share manufacturing information specifically related to dimensioning and tolerances. So, for example, a Solidworks user can add PMI to their Solidworks model (see example below) using the MBD tab and then that PMI information, including but not limited to; Datums, dimensions with [...]
KIMYA, an ARMOR GROUP company, is continuing the development of its “Remake” range of recycled 3D filaments in 2023 with a new Kimya ABS-R recycled material made from 100% post-consumer recycled material from selective collection. This new development is part of KIMYA’s ongoing commitment to a more sustainable and circular production. KIMYA ABS-R, a post-consumer recycled filament KIMYA, is continuing the development of its “Remake” range with a new 3D filament: the recycled [...]
