We just ran a slow program for 2 hours. This program would put very little heat into the ball screws compared to the rapid moves i was doing yesterday. with the spindle running and the axis moving...

Well,. the longer that program Ran, The worse it got. I stopped it after 2 hours and it was almost .002" deeper. Now here's the thing. From my understanding, haas thermal comps are time based. ...

we have a vf3 manual on the shelf. it tells to set 133 at -800000, but thats for a machine with temp senors. not our machine. I wonder if someone tinkered with something not knowing what they were...

Hey folks. I have a older VF2 (the one with the old control) and we are having problems biting us with the thermal comp. #1, we arent, and should be running a full warm up program in the morning....

Can you elaborate on the tool life. What does 100% correlate to?

I like the idea of spinning this big cutter fast to help with vibration. It seemed to work ok where i had it. I'm going to...

Found a 2" dia. Millshred shell mill cutter that wasnt being used so I got an Arbor and loaded it up with 808 inserts. Ive been trying to figure out what the "optimum" machining strategy is to use...

So I guess that makes me curious as to where those starting points are. I use fswizard right now on my tablet and it seems to be accurate, i just wonder where they get the values from. How do you...

Hey fellas,

Good to know.. Thanks

Hello everyone.. First off, mods, I beleive this belongs in the open source section, but the sub directories all seemed to be electrical component related. If you would start a sub forum there, I...

We were able to get it all workin. (Well mostly my shop head and my it guy) the cable was re-pinned, the baud rates all had to be adjusted, and the buffer over flow alarm forced us to put quite a...

Hello again fellas.

I am trying to get the rs232 setup on the SNK weve been fooling with for the last few weeks. (I say fooling because no one here has any experience with older style machines...
