Dealing with Dogleg Rapids in Mastercam

[@CEO_Eng]

Hi! For Fanuc is parameter #1401, column LRP. If bit = 0 then NON-Linear (dogleg), if bit = 1 then Linear (non-dogleg).

Thanks for that info!

Another great video. One thing I will mention though. It is pronounced Fanuc and not Fanuc, like you said it :)

[@CamInstructor]

lol, FAN-IK vs FAN-OOK. I've looked into this before, seems everyone has a different opinion on it. I go with FAN-OOk since FANUC is an acronym = Factory Automation Numerical Control, so technically the NU should be pronounced as the NU sound in Numerical, right? :)

Thank you

Love the videos! Could you make a tutorial on some kind of tool library management or if possible a cloud tool library?

[@CamInstructor]

Great suggestion!

I always lift above the highest part for rapid's (fusion360)

[@CamInstructor]

Sometimes every second counts. Doing 1, 2, 10 parts...couple seconds extra in cycle time doesn't matter much. Doing a million parts, those seconds turn into a lot of lost money.

this Dogleg movement is dangerous, why would anyone want this behaviour? it doesnt change anything except that it moves different, which may end in a crash. (so it has only downsights)

[@CamInstructor]

Some machines are only capable of dogleg rapids. I don't think anyone wants them, just have to deal with the hand you're dealt.

[@ipadize]

​@@CamInstructor yeah. fortunately i work on machines which dont have this issue (Heidenhain controllers).

[@zweisamergummigockel]

@@CamInstructor this is actually a controller/software problem which could easily be "fixed".
