Hi ImanCarrot!

Could you please advise some brand - website, any info?

Hi All!

I need to make some deep (2.5 and 1.5 mm diam and 43 or 23 mm deep) holes in special optical glass. It is quite hard (about 85 HRA or 820 HV) so I think here diamond or cBN tools needed....

In this case you should notice that when going around radius from the outer part the feedrate should increase. Not sure but in some cases machine can even increase RPM - it depends on settings.

But how one can know when 20 blocks is enough and when 40 is necessary?

Looks like something the same was discussed but in the matter of what these functions really are. But here I'd like to ask about some comparison.
The base is the following - there are Vertical...

The problem seems to be solved - the Load Inertia Ratio (2021) was adjusted and 2107 (LDINT during cutting G1). And I noted that it effects the parameters in SV.TUN screen - the Velocity Gain....

Yes, there is a counter balance - weight type. Basically we 've clamped this weight and machined moved witout it. We even locked the Z axis (by special button on Operator Panel) so that it did not...

Hi all!

Does anyone know which parameters should be adjusted for Fanuc 0iMC with alpha-i motors when there is buzzing sound by Z (vertical) axis in VMC?
The sound appears when running the program...

Hello!

Anyone familiar to old Sodick Machining Centers? Does anyone know how to restart machining from specific block?

What manual do you mean?

Maybe I misunderstood terms. I need to start the programm remotely, restart it, monitor machine status, and maybe do some reports about machine work, whole shop work, tool breakage, etc.

I...

But there is DNC through RS232 isn't it?

Has anyone tried to do that? Was it possible to perform DNC?

0i-MC

I 've heard that there is ethernet board and PCMCIA card with RJ-45 for such tasks.

Are there any devices except Data Server which could be used for connection of CNC to LAN. I mean that Data Server is too expensive and I am looking for something more affordable.

Hi All!

I 'd like to know more details about this system. I've heard that it 's sort of set of libraries or addition to programming language for development.

Are there any user-friendly...

Need affordable Vision Measurement Machine.
Work Area 200x200 mm. Accuracy 2-3 micron. Good to have touch probe as an option.
It seems to me it should be something Taiwanese.
Do you know anything...

I'd like to know the numbers of rules and standards (DIN, ISO, etc) where the proccess of high precision machining and quality control is described. I mean the requirements for thermal stability,...

I'd like to know whether Fanuc has the programs similar to IBN of Siemens, Panaterm of Panasonic, TNCOpt of Heidenhain etc. Such programs are used for drive optimization and adjustments.
It seems to...

I'd like to have an information about technologies, methods and manufacturers for tool measurement devices accurate enough to provide the measurement of mills with diameter 0.01 mm.

Is it possible?

Dear Colleagues!

Could anyone advise some internet resources where I could find basic information about linear scales - how do they work etc.?
I also 'd like to know how ususally goes...

Dear Colleagues!

I 've got a problem with the first start up of the machine with iTNC 530. After setting Feature Level Control by "SIK" code a have a message "A service pack was additional...

Well I've got Sandisk Ultra II 1Gb card and everything goes OK. These cards are even acceptable by Siemens 810 which is very "sensitive" to card speed - if card is too fast it isn't recognized. Fanuc...

This is the result. If it's not enough to understand tell me what to add.

If you format the card in Windows you should select in options not FAT16 but FAT. Or maybe use the way CAD/CAM Man suggested

f-bu: Well, I think I don't have it. Could you advice where I can get it? And could you please describe "backlash acceleration"?

Dear All!

I've got the following situation. Milling machine has CNC Fanuc 0iMC and linear scales. I was measuring the machine accuracy using Renishaw Ballbar.

So when the machine has only...

PinMan: Do you mean that I should relocate home position?
f-bu: I 'm not sure about the number of reference marks. Perhaps only one. This same direction is like from the middle of stroke range to...

Dear colleagues!

I have CNC milling machine with Fanuc 0iMC and Heidenhain linear scales.
When turning on the machine I try to carry out reference point search. This searc is ok with Y axis. But...
