How are you holding your work?

Did you consider a rack drive system?

9100 is the latest model of control. Thermwood would sell you one I'm sure.

Press "shift" then O for (, and "shift" N for ). I am just guessing the your Fanuc panel is the same mine.

Relabled a Dykem Blue areosol can with an ink remover label. "A little blue goes a long way!!!"

$2.79 in NE Oklahoma.

It's kinda like the engine you buy and the seller say "it ran when I took it out of the car". You may have to do some cleaning and maintenence to it to get it to run right.
Break your connect loose...

Use your sub-program for hole locations, so your main will set-up for the canned cycle.

You need manuals too decode the LEDs on the side of the machine. I'm sure Makino would be willing to help you out with this. Plus you will get faster results.

What are the error messages?

Try this...reset your machine, in MDI command T99; insert start then command T1 insert start. Your first T command tell the machine what tool is in the spindle. ...

There is a RFQ(Request For Quote) scection in CNCZone. You may want to post in that area. This part would need at least a four axis machine albeit abrasive waterjet or mill.

What diameter are you wanting the hole or holes?
What does the "Z" axis have to do with perforation?
Yes, you can blow a hole in .032" T6.

What happens when you call a tool from MDI? Does the machine go looking for it?
Does the switch on the side of the control show tool in spindle on one position then pot ready on the next position?

I think I know what you want. I will test on my 150i.

Is there a program in the 8000 range to reset pots? I ran an FNC74 six years age with a 30 tool changer. It would randomly replace the tools into pots but knew where it put them. We had a program...

Some machine and/or software manuals have a section on programming the machine.

#1=#1
N1
#[#1]=0
#1=#1+1
WHILE[#1LE33]DO1

I thinks you want the WHILE statement preceding the end statement so you are not in an everlasting loop.

Yes, you can. If you desigate a variable for one macro and change it for another then try to use the variable for your origanal marco with out setting your vaiables your value may not be what you...

My 02 150i still works. We only use it for emergencies which is once every two year or more. I have had to replace the battery in the card more than I have used it.

The card is going bad or the reader?

It may not like the comma.

The action of grinding cleans the wheel. You don't need high pressure on a 6"x18". You only need a steady flow of coolant around wheel and work piece contact. If the coolant is flowing too fast...

The spindle runout is .0001" but did you check shaft endplay? Or you coolant pressure may be too high and blowing the coolant off your workpiece. Sometimes your wheel just isn't the same as the...

A tool & die shop I worked for looked in the process. We used S7 and H13. The clames are very impressive but they couldn't compete with the lead time that we provided because we heated in-house. ...

Drill a hole as large as possible in the center of cavity, rough out rest of the material with a carbide inserted shell mill, then finish with the ball endmill. Use the largest BEM to finish sides...

We hit 70 in Oklahoma yesterday and today we will top out at 40

"Old enough to know better...too young to care!!!"

The shot pressure should not excede the clamping force of the machine.

You have to have three elements to make fire. Fuel, Heat, Oxygen. The normal machining process is not enough heat. The material will give of Hydrogen at a faster rate as Aluminum while in coolant. ...
