Yes mine is running if I can help you I will but I dont have the sub spindle

I was a little scared to change the parameters I called hardinge they said on that year machine after edit turn the edit key to protect mode and then hold the edit key in and push spindle stop...

must of been a luck because it is doing it again any suggestions

I just hit my spindle free button ( it has the live tool option which I am not using ) and now it will rapid at 100% after edit does that make any sence

when you are in run mode and hit the check and see what codes active they all seem to be the same but when I hit edit and dont even change anything
then go to run it rapids slow and I ran 5 pcs...

good thinking I will right down the codes and then check when I edit.

but I am starting at the beginning of the program and it is still doing this.

thanks

I have a 1992 conquest 42 it seems to go to the slowest rapid speed when you go to edit you program then go to run it.

If you turn machine off then back on it runs fine at 100 percent on the...

Well I bought the conquest 42 it will be here tommarow any one know of a good place to buy live tool holers other than ebay.
Is there any other little corks or tricks that will make the set up...

I had my mind made up on the cobra until I really started to play with the control it does not have a switch or button to go directly to mem jog mdi ect. you cant speed up or slow down the spindle...

thanks for the reply and yes the machine is cheap enough ($13500) that I can buy it outright.
I will also be doing titanium work but that is all small pcs under 1 inch in dia

thanks again now I...

when you say a little light and you have to know there limitations.

I am aware it is not a 13000lb machine with 30hp.

I would think it could take .05 per side or so in stainless with a cnmg...

I found a 1996 cobra 42 it is in nice shape do they seem to be reliable
machines and hold good sizes are all the parts avalible for repairing this when it breaks.

the only issue I see is that...

I would get the 15k I think it would be a beter all around machine than the 30k machine.
Good luck Mike

I have always had someone help me we stick a bar thru the 2 in hole and pick it up it is fairly heavy. I will have to modify my engine lift if I use this more it has only been in there twice.
Mike

For what I do it has never been needed.

But I have used one I borrowed from a friend when I bought my first machine to check spindle run out and machine backlash.

Could anyone that knows tell me about upcoming shows in the east coast.
Thank you Mike

My thing with Haas is it is so easy to use I would not look anywhere else ( for now anyway) For a job shop doing a little of everthing it seems to makeup for its weaknesses but being faster to setup...

Hopefully they will fix this problem I have a 2006 and 2002 mills (haas) and the pait still looks great I use blaser coolant and the inside is also great I cant believe the paint has not come of the...

One was one going on two years old with low hours 2006 vf3.
The other I got this year 2002 mini mill not sure on hours but it has been used but I checked it out spindle sounds good backlash seemed...

vf used all the way hands down the better choice imo I have bought two used haas and have no regrets a cnc knee mill would be a huge inconvience for me I need a toolchanger and a enclosure but the...

What makes the haas cut a round circle better than a fadal I have 2 haas mills and it surprises me how good they are and where I work part time they have a 1997 or 1998 vf3 which is beat up (they do...
