Great video...Thank you.
JUST WONDERING HOW DO YOU CACULATE THE CHAMFER WIDTH AND BOTTOM OFFSET? WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE NUMBER?
great man, thanks
Thanks for watching!
Why dont you use standard work offset, as G54 from the begining work offset list
We have it saved for a probing cycle on a different program. On our machine there's 100 work offsets to chose from and save.
@@artofthepart yea i know that, you can also use describe option in shopmill that allows you to save your work offset for the specific part of program.
Excellent video, very well explained. I hope to see more videos from you. Thank You
Thank you for watching, I have a handful of Playlists with more content!
NIMS Level 1 CNC part !
Love the NIMS parts and materials!
Hey really love this video, please do more as soon as possible
Sounds good, thanks for watching!
Hey man i love your videos <3
Thanks so much, I'm glad to hear that - enjoy!
thank so much brother .. keep production video please
Will do, should have some more videos coming soon. Thanks!
bro i like your videos
Thank you!
thanks ..this is a great video, you broke it down step to step which is the best for beginner
So glad to hear it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
This is a great intro video. Very good explanations of everything.
Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
Can You share with us the 2D Drawing of the model you are programming
Thank you thank you thank you
Thank you for watching!
First off, thank you so much for these Mastercam videos, you are helping me a lot in learning the program! I have a question though: When it comes to soft jaws, could I like buy them online for my fixture, or do I have to take a piece of block and machine it based of my hard jaws on my vise (and the contour of my part) and then cut them in half or what...? I'm wondering what's the process like since I haven't been to a workshop yet and have no practical experience so I'm curious.
Hi, you can usually purchase soft jaws from companies like Schunk via websites like MSC Direct. There's some other options too, however I think making my own soft jaws is a very affordable and easy process. I can also control the modeling heirachy using Parent Child references in SolidWorks. Thanks for watching! :)
@@artofthepart Got it. Thank you :)
Great video!
Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
Great job. 👍
Thanks for watching, glad you liked it!
Appreciate these tutorials brother, I'm a student learning about CNC and I was wondering if I can ask you something not really related to mastercam but more to hole making in general: I was wondering for example, when we have a blind hole which needs tight tolerance and good surface quality, what is the process of making that hole? Is it like this? 1. Center drilling/Spot drilling 2. Drilling 3. Reaming or could just using an end mill be enough? I know that there maybe more factors, like the hole size, if it needs a flat end at the bottom, if it's a through hole.... But I just wanted to hear your opinion in general since you seem like a skilled engineer :)
Also another thing that came to my mind. When doing large pockets for example, is it maybe a good strategy to drill a hole in the center of that pocket so that the endmill has open and nice space to cut it? Or is this a waste of time? For example: A square pocket of 4x4 inches, and we drill a hole about 5/8 inches in the center, and then with an endmill slightly smaller use it to cut the pocket Is it more optimal for the tool, or is the ramping/helix better?
Hi Andy, sorry for the late reply. What you're describing is how I would approach both scenarios. Re: your first comment, I would say that circle milling holes to their desired size gives you the most control because you don't have to use multiple reamers if you eventually need to open the hole up +.001 on the next part. Re: your second comment, I'm going to make a video on what you're asking soon. But we just did a comparison in class where pre drilling and finishing slots was magnitudes faster than helicaling and finishing every slot with an endmill alone. Likewise, pre drilling takes a lot of the cutting pressure off the endmill when it plunges in Z. Thanks!
Very Nice ..i thank you making these Videos Helpful Info
Thanks so much for watching, glad it was helpful!
I want to express my gratitude for your hard work. As usual, the explanation is nice and clear. Where can we get the part so we can follow along step by step through the tutorial? Also that list of tools files and that fixture
Great Video
Thanks so much for watching! Working on the follow up video now
Awesome
Thanks for watching!
Please keep making videos !
Will do, just posted two more today! Had to take a little break when the semester started.
Excellent video for beginners. Really broke everything down and made it easy to follow.
Glad it helped, thanks so much for watching!
Dear, professor. Dear Nick Thank you a lot for what you are doing for us. Each of your video help us understand art of design and fixturing. Place, do more videos like this. With respect John
@@artofthepart Thanks a lot
Hi, this video is a little longer format explaining how to create a 3D Model for new or returning users in SolidWorks. I tried to include a lot of my thoughts while going through each feature. Most of this content can be found as separate videos in my "Getting Started in SolidWorks" playlist if you were looking for a specific feature or setting. Also, I was having issues with my microphone disconnecting during recording, so please forgive any editing issues or changes - Thanks!
One of the best tutorials, much appreciated!.....
Very concise and clear.
thanks for like this videos
Thanks for watching!
just want you to know, that you are helping me a lot with all your videos. Thank you for your detailed explanation step by step. This is very useful for someone like me who just started working with Mastercam.
Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad these videos are helping your learn MasterCam - there's so much this software can do. I'll have a few more videos coming soon!
❤🥰
thanks for watching!
For experienced users, the core and cavity example starts at 21:39
Thank you for making these videos and showing different methods to avoid problems. Question: How come when you showed the collision detection feature, mcam did not detect the collision on the fourth path?
I believe there are some parameters in the drill command that allow you to set avoidance regions. However using the example shown in the video, MasterCam viewed all the stock as available material to remove. So it's actually doing exactly what we're asking it to do. Although, it would give us a warning if we hit a fixture we setup or if the tool holder collided with the part.
nice to see, but with optiRough you can mill all of the first operations in one, or not? time is money ^^
Oh yeah, no doubt about that - I love OptiRough! This is just the first project for my CAD/CAM class so we're only focusing on the 2D Toolpath Gallery for new users. I also wanted to show off the power of Dynamic Mill and copying toolpath.
Need model
Okay, third time's the charm - right? 😅 Sorry for taking this video down twice, I noticed some errors I made in editing after uploading. Enjoy!
You have no idea how long I’ve been frustrated with trying to do everything you just perfectly explained here. Thank you so very much.
Your instruction method is very helpful and I am grateful for it. I am hoping to find tutorials on making 3D mold cavities and using some of those 3D toolpaths.❤
Believe it or not, I'm actually working on some mold making videos right now for the students. I should have some content on how to convert a milled part into a cast component and then make a mold from it in SolidWorks. Then we'll take a look at programming in MasterCam. Should take me another week or two to finish.
I can't wait to dive into the content you're preparing Thank you for putting in the effort to create such valuable resources for us students. Looking forward to it!
do you have any tips for the facing toolpath to be more efficient? It will almost always do a air cut on the last pass even though the whole stock has already been cut.
Hmmm, I've always had really good luck with my Face Mills cleaning up to Z0 on the final pass. In the example used for this video, I set the depth cuts to .01 and had a top of stock value of .015. The tool made two passes in verify. Maybe try troubleshooting with One Pass or One Way and divide your top of stock value into an equal number of depth cuts. For instance, .05 for top of stock with a .01 depth of cut should make 5 passes. That, or you might also have a finishing pass turned on somewhere. I think there's a tickbox in cut parameters or depth cuts that might be forcing an additional Z0 pass.
I might have something similar in my Intro to 5-Axis Programming video under the Business Card Holder Case Study around minute 31:00. I use a 5/8 endmill to face a larger surface and control using stepover percentage and entry & exit approach.
Thank u so much bro hope u r doing good now Can't wait for more of mastercam for beginners tutorials
Second Operation is uploaded in the playlist now.
Would you be comfortable with giving out some of these solid model files so that I may use it to practice with ?
Yeah, I've actually been thinking about that a lot lately. I want to start organizing a file share system over the next few weeks. I'm also going to do a tutorial on how to draw this part in MasterCam soon too!
@@artofthepart thank you so much! Great videos!
Will there be a video showing further processing from the second setup? I really look forward to it.
Absolutely, working on that video now. I'll hopefully have it up in the next day or two! Fingers crossed 🤞
Second Operation is uploaded in the playlist now.
Dynamic mill has become one of my favorite toolpaths within mastercam.
Even though I know how to program a part such as this I watched the whole video and sure enough I learned some stuff I didn’t know within mastercam. Thank you so much. You are truly an incredible teacher.
Dude, You're awesome. Waiting for your video for like decades 😁
