Mastercam Drill Operations for Tapping

By |2021-07-19T09:34:38-04:00July 19th, 2021|Categories: Technology|0 Comments

This blog post will discuss creating Mastercam drill operations for tapping. The order of operations for the tapping cycle will typically share common parameters from part to part. By creating custom drill operations, you can increase the efficiency of programming for these common features. Our example fixture plate has multiple drilled and tapped one half 13 holes. Starting with the chamfer drill toolpath, we took advantage of the solid feature defining the tapped hole. Remember [...]

Metrology Minute – Flatness

By |2021-07-08T08:24:48-04:00July 8th, 2021|Categories: 3D Scanning, Metrology Minute|0 Comments

In continuing our series on GD&T callouts, today's Metrology Minute focuses on Flatness. Flatness is a very simple callout that focuses on just how flat a particular surface is without making reference to any specific datum. Very often, a Flatness callout can determine whether a job shop is able to face mill a surface to its finished dimension or if grinding and perhaps outside services are required to achieve the necessary Flatness. If a specific [...]
