- THIS VIDEO IS TO HELP YOU HAVE A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE 3D AND 2D WORK ENVIRONMENT OF MASTERCAM. WE WILL BRIEFLY DISCUSS THE WCS, G-VIEW, C-PLANE AND T-PLANE. IM GOING TO SHOW YOU HOW TO CREATE YOU OWN CUSTOM VIEW FROM A SOLID FEATURE AND ILL ALSO GIVE QUICK EXAMPLES OF 2D AND 3D GEOMETRY CREATION. WITH EACH EXAMPLE ILL TALK ABOUT THE PURPOSE AND USE OF EACH OF THESE FUNCTIONS.

• MASTERCAM 4 AXIS TOOLP...
Great video thanks for taking the time to do this! I just started playing around with MC and was surprised how few beginner tutorials out there cover wcs/planes. Most have you start drawing parts without knowing what your drawing from or what plane features are going to. This should really be the first thing you learn when using the program and you really broke it down in a easy common sense way.
You're very welcome!

Thanks for the video this was very helpful 🙌🏼
You're welcome!
Awesome! , Thank You.
You're welcome!
When programming using WCS as “TOP” and for my C&T planes i will be using 4 planes on each face of a tombstone vice . When setting the X,Y,Z on the machine would every offset (g54-g57) come from the center of the machine as my WCS is set ? Or would I have to pick up 4 different offsets that are essentially three XYZ coordinates given when you create the plane that come from your WCS ?
I hope I made sense , sorry I’m a 3 axis programmer making the transition into multi axis has been a bit tough especially without being able to conversate with other programmers.
Are you running the same parts in each location or something different?
If your running multiples of the same part same and same operation multiple offsets is the way to go. Then you only need one set of tool path geometry or a model and transform the tool paths. If running multiple tools break you transforms up for each tool so you’re using that tool on all parts then use the next tool and so on. Transform/ rotate is powerful why it comes to multi part setups and can save a ton of time. Start with something simple like a facing tool path and play around with it. It has the option built in to use different offsets if you want.
When you make a new plane, is that plane your Z0 where you set your tool from?
If you are using that plane as your WCS. I'm hoping to be able give better examples of this in future videos. Work has kept me busy so I've not had much time to focus on videos. Thank you for the question. I need more people to ask questions to help me know what I need to focus on. So please don't hesitate to ask anything and I'll do my best to answer.
@@scmachinst77 I’m having a difficult time with this,when I post out I’m getting messages saying I have errors… it seems easy on video but when I try at work it doesn’t work.
Sorry, CZcams isn't notifying me for comments. Can you give me an example of what you are trying to do and maybe I can help. Feel free to email me. scmachinst77@gmail.com
