Just finished setting up the 4th axis.

That table is starting to look a little crowded.

FSWizard Machinist Speed And Feed Calculator has a new feature!

Filtering was added to the Cut Cloud tool list, making it easy to find the tools you are looking for:

You can filter by the library name, Tool type, and/or by a plain-text search.

Additionally, the list now checks the version and updates in the background, which means the page now appears almost immediately. No more waiting for 15-20 seconds to download all your tools each time you open it.

Thanks to everybody who made improvement suggestions and feature requests!

As usual, you can find the links to the FSWizard app here: https://fswizard.com/

Cheers!

Who likes to send emails and worry about additional invoices just to add a couple of seats to their existing license?

Nobody that's who!

HSMAdvisor customers can now purchase more seats right from the https://hsmadvisor.com/buy page.
All you have to do is enter the same First Name, Last Name, and Email you used when purchasing the original license.
The multiple-seat discount will apply to the existing license!

More information can be found on the new help page: https://hsmadvisor.com/help?article_id=5497_adding-more-seats-to-your-license

HSMAdvisor and FSWizard Speed and Feed Calculators are being continually developed and enriched with new features.

Help them get even better by providing your feedback and suggestions!

Best regards.

Tonight I released the latest version of HSMAdvisor and the plugin for Mastercam 2022, 2021 and 2020

Most of the issues reported by our users have either been fixed or otherwise addressed.

It has bug fixes and an improved tool creation routine.

Additionally, the Tool Path Write dialog now has an option to disable the toolpath regeneration and the actual values that will be written in the toolpath:

The Save button saves the current state of checkboxes as default.

Mastercam plugin can be downloaded here: https://hsmadvisor.com/hsmadvisor_for_mastercam

The latest standalone HSMAdvisor version is available here: https://hsmadvisor.com/download

It has some back-end improvements plus additional materials.

Please let me know if you have any feedback or questions!

The long-awaited feature, that has been available on FSWizard for some time now is now available in HSMAdvisor as well!

It is currently in the MVP stage, but now when you log in to HSMADvisor Cloud on both the FSWizard and HSMAdvisor (sharing is only allowed within the same account), the cloud tools are automatically synchronized between the two apps.

Check out the latest version here: https://hsmadvisor.com/download

To enable cloud libraries in HSMAdvisor, please Register and/or Log-in to the HSMAdvisor Cloud in Settings or by clicking on Actions->Cut Cloud->Log-in in the Tool Database tab.

Then select the Tool Library you want to sync with the cloud and go to Actions->Tool Library.
Enable the "Sync with HSMAdvisor Cloud" option.

Synced tools are now available on both apps:

Also, a couple of materials were added:

• AISI431, 1.4057, X17CrNi16-2 (QT800 and QT900)
• Aluminum 3.1645; EN AW-2007
• AISI4820 (1.6587, 18CrNiMo7-6)
