It seems to be it would be easier to probe in Z and use the difference in depth to make the calculation.

I would buy an inexpensive water soluable oil. Trimsol is a good product, smells good, lasts a long time and is good for all metals. MSC sells it. If Trimsol is not available then get one of the...
IMHO, the best place to look is in the tool catalogs, Seco has the best tech manual I have seen.
Are you making a test coupon for tensile pulls or similar data gathering project?
1. Drill center hole on part just deep enough to engage point of center.
2.turn parts leaving .157 stock on...
Is your turret properly aligned?
I have used Flowdrills in the past in a similar operation, you may trouble on the CNC mill as you cannot feel the tool. Haas would most likely let you try it brfore purchase to insure it works. They...
Are you using a single point tool?
How are you timing the start point of each thread?
Try ceratizit for inserts. They make very sharp, highly polished inserts.
Just wondering ronin, did anyone ever give you free advice? I assume you researched every problem and reported all of you data before you were helped. Hard life dude.
The newbie could be holding...
I did not read all of the posts, forgive me if this has been said.
Cuting speed and chip load are too high, run 1550 and feed 12 ipm. That is 300SFM and .004 per flute. If you want to go faster...
The Old Guys are right. Use the oil. The oils do not cool as well as the soluable products, true. However, they do not need to as they tend to reduce the volume of heat produced by providing better...
Sorry to PO the design guys but...
You need to know these things to program CNC equipment on the floor. It would be nice if the design guys would put these things on the drawing. Not becasue the...
Use .250 stock. Cut to near net shape. First hold is in a vise with standard jaws. Face mill .005-.010 and machine all geometry other than profile. Transfer to second vise with soft jaws. Install a...
BTW grinding titanium is very difficult. TI does not react the same as steels or other materials when you grind. I doubt all but the most advanced grinding shops could grind them successfully. I...
I see reason not to turn it. The 8mm titanium stem should be plenty stiff if you grip close to the chuck. I would use a single point tool and interpolate the chamfer. You are more likely to have...
Use the HSS tool and feed .001 or less per rev. Use kerosene as coolant.

Try one of these. Grind off the pieces you do not want.
I am looking for a good Tool and Die Shop in the Savannah GA area. No production work, this is all one off work and fixture rework/repair. You must be able to work from sketches. It will be necessary...
Thread mill them. One tool should last 120 holes. Wayyyyyy better than tapping.
Use the Mazatrol side and program that tool to enter on 29 degress and cut only on the leading edge. Problem will go away.
Thread mill it. I see you have x,y and z. If you have simultaneous control it will be no problem.
Try a simple burr knife. $12 from MSC.
I hsve lots of words for this problem. I can not use any of them here.
The pitch alternates. The purpose of this is to allow you saw a wider range of cross sections. I think the rule of thumb is three to four teeth in the cut at any time.
Use IMCO Powerfeed end mills. They are wicked tough we use them on 4140 forgings that have been heat treated to 40HRC. 1/2 dia will be about
$30. They are coated and perform well with or without...
We just bought a $1,000,000 Toyoda HMC. Renishaw had a third party come and install the hardware and software. I will see if I can get the name of the outfit.
Ask your distributor if there is...
I would make a drill fixture thae clamps onto the table and holds a drill bushing. You can make everything nice and square that way. The saddle will not be hard to drill and tap. I would suggest...
Counter to the others recommendation (as usual I like to be different) I would suggest using a good quality HSS end mill. HSS will be dead sharp if you are using quality tools. The keen edge will...
Could you use parafin? I have never done this but it sounds like a good idea?????????????
IMHO:
In theory you can machine all materials without coolant. Coolant aides efficiency more than anything. Coolant does several things to aide the machining process:
1. It cools. By removing...
