Hover over the drawn point and press F to retain it.Ĥ. Extend a line by using Trim first, because in order to extend a line you need something to extend to.ģ. use the arc dialog command, it's fairly straight forwardĢ. When defining a tool, max spindle speed is ignored and changes anything above 10,000 to 9999 RPMHiġ. But try to contact Vero, and tell everything! Sorry for hearing that you don`t get help. Vero have a system that customers can report bugs or problems to them to fix the issues.
It is some bugs, but every program has that. I use Edgecam almost every day in the week, and i have a perfect job (for me with modelling, programming and machining. They are amazing!īUT, if you have problem with the resellers, TALK TO VERO SOFTWARE! tell them what problems you have! Im from Norway, and i need to tell you people that i think we have the best reseller for Vero/Edgecam. The resellers, I have been told on the forum here that the resellers many places are very bad. So try to check for some new/better drivers. Some of the bugs you are telling here, picking entities etc. So Edgecam is a program that is keeping forward with newer things and updates, that also causes bugs. But Vero software, that`s making Edgecam, has come with two software release each year (Edgecam R1 and Edgecam R2) And they also come with up to 10-15 Service updates for them. I have been using Edgecam for several years now. When defining a tool, max spindle speed is ignored and changes anything above 10,000 to 9999 RPM When browsing files, you can’t type the directory, it’s only drop-down menus Sometimes when toolpaths are made not visible, they cannot be turned back on When using the “edge loop” feature (similar to curve edges in MasterCAM), non-connecting edges will require you to use edge loop once for each segment that is not attached O You will be prompted to reselect geometry but they cycle in question is not specified, so you are left to select geometry blindly When using “reload solid,” sometimes the new one will not line up, and if you try to move it, you will not be able to because it says, “cycles need to be regenerated” no matter what Ěny changes made to the appearance (hiding of toolpaths, machine, fixtures, tools, etc.) will be undone when the file is closed Selected geometry on many cycles cannot be changed after the fact and must be deleted if any changes wish to be made Ĝannot change direction/angle of cuts on face mill or parallel lace These serve absolutely no purpose to the user and get in the way of selecting geometry Green dots appear all over the part in the stock layer when stock is updated.
O Move tool home doesn’t generate a G28 Z0, it just moves Z to ~24”
OĚs well, this post ignores fixed axes for tool changes (moves all 3 home no matter what) On the default vertical mill post, some feed rates default to 950 IPM for no reason at all “Internal errors” with no possibility of troubleshooting functions are aborted with no explanation
Clicking will not result in anything, and the program must be shut down from the task manager Sometimes an error regarding file saving might pop up and if it does, all functions within Edgecam are impossible. O Often cannot select drawn geometry for a tool to follow (“Entity not found”) Ĝannot pick a drawn point for where a hole center is located Very annoying to draw wireframe/geometry especially arcs I realize I'm using the default post but my local reseller hasn't been willing to help me set up a post for my machine.
#Edgecam software price professional#
If any of you are professional programmers, here is what you'll have to look forward to on the 3 axis package. I started with MasterCAM, then Gibbs, but EdgeCAM takes the cake for works CAM software I've ever had the misfortune of using. I've been programming at my new job for two months now, and went away on training but no matter how much I use it, I can't warm up to it.
