The setup that I am running is MasterCam with a Mitsubishi 1200S wire EDM. I'm curious if anyone has experience with programming 4 axis taper cuts with this software/machine combination? My problem is that I need set certain parameters (for Z1/Z5) in MasterCam so that it posts properly and then set different values at the machine for the Z1/Z5. This really only is an issue when my bottom geometry is above the work table. Essentially I am putting my WCS in MasterCam at that lower geometry, not the bottom of the part (work table).
I have gotten the taper to burn properly but, I'm just not sure this is the proper way to be programming 4 axis.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
