Ciao,
I have this problem, when the machmate raise the mill do do the tabs, it leave vertical signs in correspondance of its up-down. A picture for better explaining.
Any idea ?
Thanks
Sergio

Sergio use 3d tabs.The cutter needs to stop and then go up, move and then go down.

I'm sorry Hennie, I did not understend. I understand that the cutter needs to stop and then go up, move and then go down, but did you do mean that that problem has no solution ? (Yes it's not a very big problem but I thought I have a z axis not perfecly squared to XY plane but I get the same problem on all the side of the pieces in any direction I turn ... )
thanks

The tab is like a little triangle meaning that the cutter moves up while it cuts forward.

Like many, I too have found that using 3d tabs solves the problem, but only if the CAM supports it.

silverdog Mon 11 June 2012 17:48

just becose we are talking of tabs .... does visualmill support 3D tabs ? and does visual mill let you choose where to put tabs ? (I mean exacli put the tabs where you want them ... like vectric's products)
thanks

Google translate is a bit rough, but for Hennie they may be accurate. Actually we also use bliksem for scoundrel. :D

hennie Tue 12 June 2012 23:27

And it is so unique to our Mother language Afrikaans.It has some other meanings also,I am going to hit you,( Ek gaan jou bliksem!) or You are a noughty small boy, ( Jou klein bliksem .) or Look at that lightning .( Kyk na daai bliksem straal ) or If you were in a bar fight of some sort and you got the worst of it then we would say ( Kyk hulle het vir hom goed gebliksem .):)
