    Re: Journeyman Mill question

    Hmm, my Journeyman 425 just drips oil all over the table, etc. Maybe there is supposed to be some sort of return / drain line? I never gave it much thought. I'm just happy my spindle bearings are...

    Re: Interface card ID help needed

    Okay first lets pretend I have no idea what I am talking about. But, I believe the MPG interface only interprets (receives) the pulses sent from the handwheel. The x1/10/100 function is an electronic...

    Re: Y Axis Drag J325

    The Y axis carries considerably more weight than X or Z. The grease fitting is for the knee raise/lower gear shaft most likely, as the ways are auto-lube with the oil system. If it doesn't show signs...
  7. Re: Z Axis Ball Screw and all around maintenance

    That looks like the ballscrew seal. It should not be floating. I have the J425 drawings, they should be very similar.

    Re: Delta 1000 Jog speed settings

    On the Delta 20/30/40/50M control, jog speeds in IPM are 1,10,100 and rapid. I have the parameter manual for the Delta 40/50/60 but I have no idea if it is the same / similar for the 1000/2000....
  10. Re: Republic lagun vmc4824 Tool offsets and part zero procedures.

    Another common question with the Delta control is MDI mode. There isn't one that's labeled. MDI is performed in mode 3. Option 1: in any part program, type "N." enter (that's "N" then "."). This...
  11. Re: Republic lagun vmc4824 Tool offsets and part zero procedures.

    For setting part zero, I make my set up, use edge finders or whatever to locate the spindle centerline to my desired X0Y0, then I go to mode 6 offsets, E (fixtures) and enter the XY data in the...
  12. Re: Republic lagun vmc4824 Tool offsets and part zero procedures.

    RT has it right, except going from memory I believe E is for fixture offsets and T is for tool offsets. I approach mine a bit differently. I use a tool length indicator. Starting with my longest tool...

    Hello all, I have a Tree J425 with a Delta 40M control. These controls are a little unique with cutter compensation. Most controls in my experience "ramp" into cutter compensation, but the Delta 40...

    Re: dynapath 10 - MDI?

    If it's anything like the Delta40, then MDI mode is accessed as follows.

    Enter program mode 3.
    For the N# type only "N." then enter.
    Now you can enter commands on this one "line" and hit cycle...
