Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Master Cam

can you import your 2D data into Mastercam (IGES or DXF)? If so, you can translate planner profiles in Z or between views. Non-planner profiles can be projected onto surfaces (imported or created).

Thanks for the response to help. I'd taken it off the list thinking others
would be bothered by the reply.
I'll just post my basic question then here.
How can I take my 2D cad drawings into MCam Design and add the 3rd axis for
CNC 3D machining? Do I need to start from scratch in Design 9 [ I have lots
of 2d cad drawings I use for manual machining.] Also I've got the CAD
imported INTO CamDesign. I just can't figure out how to add the Z
dimensions.
I am using Version 9.
