Hello David.
Could you please attach the project? We will check it. Could you also tell, what version do you use? You can find it in the about window.
Yes, there are two versions of SprutCAM8: 32 and 64. The setup utility intalls the appropriate version automatically.
Hello Michael.
It would be great if you provide complete descriptions of particular bugs.
In our internal work we use Trac for bug management. Please contact me and we grant you with access to...
Hello guys.
Could you please describe the imperial units problems more precisely. We will try to fix them.
Hello Mr. MetalShavings)
Could you please attach a source cad file or a SprutCAM project you are working on.
It will help us to suggest you the best way to accomplish your task.
Hello,
Ensure the <Main menu->Tools->System Setup->Visualization->Use fast painting mode> option is checked.
Hello, Tim,
In SpruCAM since version 7.1.4. we have added the <Base surface> feature from the engraving operation into the 2d contouring operation. By using it you can machine open pockets on...
Hello, Avayan.
To the first question. You'd better remove all the faces from the job assignment and set the appropriate bottom level. The easiest way to do that is to add a face specifying the...
Hello Gerry.
It's pretty simple.
You are using a roughing waterline operation.
How does it work.
It takes the Z step parameters such as the Top and Bottom Levels, Z step (count or distance),...
Hello Bevin.
My bad.
The <Check Workpiece> option affects not only the transitions - the toolpath is trimmed by the workpiece too. So disable the "Check workpiece" option.
Instead add the part to...
Hello Bevin.
I've looked at your project. It's a lame, but you should also enable the "Check workpiece" option at the <Parameters->Trimming> tab if you want the transitions were made around a...

I suspect all your problems are just because you have once set an incorrect digit tolerance in SprutCAM settings (3 digits instead of default 5). All you guys are trying to machine very small parts...
It seems the tolerance in AbstractMachine.xml is a fake. Do not use it. You'd better set digits tolerance in the SprutCAM Setup window (Main menu->Tools->System setup->Measurement...
Hello Dennis.
We have fixed the problem with loading of the pocketing operation in the build 7.1.3.
We will let you know when the fix will be available.
Working with your project I have...
Hello Mr. Random Number.
It seems the problem with lathe operation in US is just because you are using the imperial measurement system. SprutCAM have not been tested a lot with imperials. Could you...
Hello Dennis, sorry for the slow response. I have not read the SprutCAM forum for a while.
What build of SprutCAM do you actually use?
I have tried to repeat your problem on my computer using SC...
I think the reason of the problem was that the section plane was going directly along an edge, and SprutCAM has refused it by some reason. When I did my plane section, i've just rotated the plane by...
Hello Terry,
SprutCAM recognizes turn generatrices pretty reliable, but when it fails you'd better use the <Section> button on the <3d Model> tab. It is much easier than using <2d geometry>.
...
Hello Terry,
I've played with your project, and suppose the problem is in the three things.
1. The turn generatrix of the part was calculated by SprutCAM with some defects. To workaround that,...
Hello, Terry.
Could you please attach a problem project. We will look at it.
Right now we are working on a new lathe contouring operation.
Hopefully it will be a powerful tool for a vast majority...
Hi John, could you please try this nightly build of SprutCAM 7.1.3.

Just do the same what you have done for the operation workpiece.
1. Select the 3 axis milling machine node.
2. Open the Workpiece panel.
3. Repeat the steps you have done for the operation...
Try to specify the workpiece in the root of the job tree, i.e. in the Machine-tool node.
In the latest builds (http://download.sprutcam.com/download/sprutcam/version-7/version-7.1.2/nightbuild/sprutcam-7.1.2.39989rc.exe) we have added the <Contact Point> option into engraving operations....
It's not a bug, it's just a "Short link".
Open the operation parameters panel -> Transition, and set the <Short link> option to 30% of the tool diameter instead of default 300%,
or set the...
1. We will add the base surface feature into 2d contouring operations in the nearest future.
2. I am not sure, the image looks like a bug. Could you post the project please?
