using the wear setting on a Haas NGC

greggv · Jul 27, 2020

hello. Could one of you Haas experts please explain the use of the wear setting when using cutter comp? I always have trouble deciding if I need to put a positive or negative value in that field. Programming with Mastercam 2021 if that matters. Thanks guys!

Negative is telling the control the tool is smaller than programmed at nominal of .250 -.500, etc. So for example if using a .250 endmill to cut some features and they turn out .001" oversize, you would comp -.001 (or -.0005 if using radius comp).
