    Export to Mastercam

    We need these sketches to cnc cut along them to scribe min/max trim lines around our fixtures. These lines are projected curves on 3d surfaces, not surface edges.

    Export to Mastercam

    ok, from what our engineer figured out, here it is: If you have an assembly, and you want to iges out any points or sketches, you can't do it properly because even though they are existing in the assembly, they are still related to their respective parts. For some reason if you try to iges out...

    Export to Mastercam

    JNR: The reason I've turned to the iges files is because, parasolid file only brings in solids, no points or sketches. Not looking for edge curves, need the 3d sketches and points in the file. It seems to be an issue with how the sketches are created and what mode they are created in...

    Sketching in assembly mode

    Has anyone tried creating a sketch in an assembly, and then tried to iges out the assembly? Did the sketches disappear?

    Solidworks compatible Cam ware

    Thanks SBaugh, already done that. Camworks will not cut the 3d trimlines that I need, only in 2.5x SolidCam will, however, their software introduces a hell of a lot of air cutting due to the fact that the tool always raises up to safe Z between each and every pick within a toolpath. And you...

    Solidworks compatible Cam ware

    I really need to find the best cam ware that will support Solidworks. Either directly as a built in or be able to import iges created from SolidWorks correctly. It's extremely important that I am able to import points and curves from solid works, along with the surfs 'course. If someone has...

    Export to Mastercam

    For those who are going from Solidworks to Mastercam, either via iges or .x_t file, could you please tell me if you are able to bring in any points and/or sketches into Mastercam. I am trying to bring in an iges file into Mastercam that I exported out of Solidworks, however the sketches...

    Exporting to IGES - HELP

    ctopher, I am trying to figure out how to successfully export an iges file from SolidWorks to Mastercam. Each time I do this, none of the points in the file come in, and the 3d curves that I need are either missing or broken up. Any ideas? The curves are min/max 3d curves on the surfaces in...
