Using the Mastercam 2023 Apply Button

By |2023-05-15T08:32:17-04:00May 15th, 2023|Categories: Mastercam, Tech Tips|0 Comments

There is a new Apply button feature available in Mastercam’s Mill toolpaths that allows you to preview cutting motion, resulting in streamlined toolpath creation. In the past, when programming options like multi-passes, you needed to take an educated guess at the number of passes required to cover the area we were machining. In Mastercam 2022, you were able to use the Preview Toolpath button to see the cutting motion before exiting the dialogue. Now, in [...]

Desktop Metal Live Sinter

By |2023-05-10T08:11:51-04:00May 10th, 2023|Categories: 3D Printing / Additive Mfg, Desktop Metal|0 Comments

Desktop Metal Live Sinter produces quality parts that meet form and dimensional tolerances right out of the furnace, in one or two iterations. Today we’re going to show you an effective way to ensure that metal 3D-printed parts meet form and dimensional requirements right out of the furnace. Although metal 3D printing has many advantages, it can be challenging to predict the final part geometry due to the many physical forces introduced during the sintering [...]

Troubleshooting Mastercam 3D Toolpath Jumping

By |2023-05-08T08:30:56-04:00May 8th, 2023|Categories: Mastercam|0 Comments

In this blog post we are going to show you how to resolve a common issue that can arise using Mastercan 3D toolpaths; erratic jumping along the cut. For this example, we used a flowline toolpath on the geometry to cut the material on the inside of the surfaces. The toolpath we applied looked pretty good, with nice clean passes around the inside of the feature. To begin, let’s take a look at how we [...]

Metrology Minute – Resizing Section Planes for Custom 2D Cross-Sections

By |2023-05-03T08:41:29-04:00May 3rd, 2023|Categories: Metrology Minute|0 Comments

In this issue of our Metrology Minute, we will discuss how to resize section planes so that just the necessary geometry is displayed. This becomes extremely useful for very complex models where you want to draw the reviewer’s attention to a specific location on the model. In order to do this, the first thing we needed to do, in our example below, was to create the plane that we planned to use to create the [...]
