This article will explain how to use the edited tool holder to create a custom tool assembly in a Mastercam tool library. With the tool holders defined, we can take advantage of gouge check and tilt strategies in the surface and multi-axis toolpaths. To create the tool assembly, we will use the Tool Manager in a Mastercam Mill part file. Open the Tool Manager and create a tool. Next, right-click on the tool and select [...]
HP Multijet Fusion technology is known for its high-quality parts with near isotropic qualities and performance. The advances offered by Multi Jet Fusion can add up to major advantages, including: Better mechanical performance Significant cost savings with batch manufacturing Accelerated time to market with faster build speeds On the back end of getting such great parts, there is post-processing that needs to be done. Whether support removal, sanding, bead blasting or bathing it needs to [...]

Non-Contact inspection: Review scanner specs for accuracy and resolution parameters. • Import the nominal CAD model and scan into Control X. • Discuss batch processing many scans, unmanned. • Discuss how Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) may be used to automate the complete process by integrating with your CAD system. https://cimquesttv.wistia.com/medias/ltcs92zoqo?embedType=async&videoFoam=true&videoWidth=640
Non-Contact inspection - Webinars on Demand Comparing the scan of a manufactured part with its nominal CAD model. • Review scanner specs for accuracy and resolution parameters. • Import the nominal CAD model and scan into Control X. a. Duplicate the CAD datums on the scan and perform a datum alignment. b. Once aligned, produce color maps, whisker plots, 2D and 3D dimensions, GD&T and a final inspection report. • Discuss batch processing many scans, [...]
