The BEST New Feature For Mastercam 2024!

7/24/23 6:00 AM / by camInstructor Mike

Now this is a game changer! This will be your go to in 2024 and beyond!


It's the little things that can make a huge difference! A few versions ago we got that little check box at the bottom of the parameters menu that enables or disables automatic generation of a toolpath, which for me was a great addition, and now this!
 
What was once a multi step process of switching models to Verify or Simulate from, previously you had to enter a menu, select your option from a pulldown, return to toolpath selection, and then launch Verify of Simulation....now is as easy one extra mouse click!
 
The process now for Mastercam 2024, all you need to do is select the stock model you wish to execute your toolpaths on first (it needs to be the first item selected in your ops manager, maybe a better way to say that is the toolpaths need to be below the selected stock model in the list of toolpaths) then select the toolpaths, and that's it. Launch into Verify or Simulate and the selected stock model will be the model used. No more sub menus. No more confusion about what was previously set. No launching into Verify or Sim with the wrong model selected.
