Updating Your Mastercam Software Licenses
Mastercam Software License Issues and Advice A few years ago, Mastercam made the move to software licensing. With this change from hardware license devices, there are a few things to know when working with the new style licenses. Updating your Mastercam software license is a completely different process compared to what was previously done with the hardware keys. You will no longer be given a code file to update the license. Instead, you will receive an email letting you know that updated licenses are available. For both the local and networkable licenses you will need to deactivate the license on its current host. This might be the user’s computer in the case of a standalone license, or the license server for the networkable licenses. In the case of the networkable licenses, they will need to be deactivated and activated on the server itself and cannot be done on the client machines. Once deactivated, you will be presented with your license information. You can then reactivate the license using the same license information. When the activation is complete the new maintenance dates will be applied. All activations will be done using the Activation Wizard. Issues With Using Software Licenses Software licensing issues just happen [...]

Metrology Minute – Airfoil Analysis
Exporting Airfoil Analysis Data to a Spreadsheet Using Control X When working with Control X, you often find yourself needing the data that is generated by the software to be exported in a usable form rather than just a static report. In this post, we are going to show you how we analyzed a machined airfoil. Using this machined airfoil below as an example, suppose we wanted to analyze its contour directly at the end face. We first would need to complete a deviation check at random points along the outer perimeter. We could use the Comparison Point tool in Control X to select random points along the area of interest to generate the required data. The color coding allows us to see where the airfoil contour is “full” from the nominal CAD model as well as where it is “undersized.” The Yellow/Orange/Red colors exported from Control X indicate full conditions whereas the light blue – dark blue colors show that the scan is undersized, as compared to the nominal CAD model. We can then select the tool to export the data to a text or CSV file. Control X will generate a datasheet with all the information required regarding each randomly selected [...]
Why Every University Needs a Studio System Metal 3D Printer
It is critical educational institutions include technologies like metal 3D printing in curricula to give them hands-on experience with disruptive technology and avoid leaving students at a disadvantage as they enter the workforce. Metal additive manufacturing, also known as 3D printing, is revolutionizing industries by enabling the creation of complex parts with intricate geometries that were once impossible to produce using traditional methods. Creating components by building up metal layer-by-layer has numerous applications and advantages, particularly for universities. In addition to ensuring students have experience with digital tools like CAD, FEA, and generative design, investing in metal additive manufacturing allows students the opportunity to gain invaluable hands-on experience directly producing the parts they design. Having a 3D printer on campus also attracts researchers with the opportunity to conduct customized experiments, test new materials, and continue to push the boundaries of the technology for advanced industry applications. As metal 3D printing continues to emerge as a key manufacturing technology, it is critical educational institutions include it in their curricula to inspire the next-generation of professionals and avoid leaving students at a disadvantage as they enter the workforce. Here are five reasons the Desktop Metal Studio System is a worthy investment for every educational institution. [...]
