This video walks through a quick sample using the V25 Multi axis software. Take a look and let me know what questions you guys have...

Looks great, keep the video's coming, users could benefit from you doing this, does it do simultaneous in 4 axes

[aldepoalo]

Yes this part was programmed in true 4 axis....

[mcphill]

Sweet!

Could you do a "simple" 5-axis path/part as well (or link it if it exists already)?

5 axis machine setup

[aldepoalo]

So I did a quick video using morph between 2 curves for a 5 axis part. It's a simple sample, but mcphill if you have a sample part you would like me to go though for everyone please share...

Here's a part I would like to see.

I was thinking that "tilt lines" could be used to machine this with a head that rotated to allow the step down cut of the undercut?

So, a head tilting with a stationary table cutting this would help me understand some stuff...

[aldepoalo]

Burr,

Can you give me more information....

How is the rotation going to be handled?

[aldepoalo]

Something like this? ( no tilt lines used )

Hmm a new dialog box to learn!

[BurrMan]

Damn.. The smart dialogues!

Yes, that cut is what I was refering to. I was looking at "tilt lines" more as a means to learn to explicitly cut the part... In other words, if I can force it to tilt and cut where I want, then the dialogues are easy....

Probably my biggest stumbling block is I dont have/run a 5 axis machine, so I figure if I start with manually controlling the single added axis, then the rest will fall into place... I could be wrong
