Is there anyone using the TAPER EXPERT from Charmilles for cutting WireEDM parts?
One of our customers is facing problems because the movement of the machine is not smooth if he uses the TAPER EXPERT.
Any idea?
It is a 4 axis program (XY and UV contour)and the correspondences between upper and lower contour are line-line (both contours are postprocessed as small lines).
Make the step increments smaller and they will get a smoother surface. When programming 4 axis, I step about .0015 per step on my largest plane (step may be smaller on the other Z plane depending on what you are doing). It makes one heck of a long program, but the surface is perfectly smooth.
