Re: Aspire V4.0 Released for existing Aspire Users

Is there a free upgrade option for users who purchased 3.5 not too long ago?

I've created a simple 2 rail sweep with rough and finish passes. The depth of cut is almost 1 1/2" deep and I have the rough tool set up to only cut 1/2" deep so it is doing it in multiple passes which is what I want but after the first pass is complete the cutter covers the whole part again for the...

Re: strange toolpath question

Thanks for the replies. I've yet to track down the problem but did end up running the file after changing the finish cut to raster and it was fine.

I'm not inclined to think it is the machine, a Multicam NBMG 5x10 table, is used daily to cut hundreds of cabinet parts and nothing is ever off

Thanks

Basically I was doing a test machining for a tapered underside of a round table, I used a large step over to save time that is why you see all the ridges from the ball nose bit. You can see that the circu...

Re: Need help/direction

It's not so much the machining that I'm having trouble with but turning the contoured part into a component

Need help/direction

New to Aspire, I've had the software for a while, just have not had the time to learn it

Attached is the same file saved in different formats, need to learn how to turn this into something that I can toolpath and machine

Any help/direction is appreciated

Thanks in advance

Sweep two rails question

I'm trying to carve the profile shown on the included image. I just want the raised portion machined with maybe an extra 1/4" all around but when I apply toolpaths to the component I get machining across the whole material. Ive never really used Aspire that much so I could use some advice on how to ...
