Here is the dilemma, I have 2 Fanuc machines with the offset page set to Diameter. They need to be in Radius.

Techs on both machines stated that it is 5004 that sets the page.

Maybe multiaxis/millturn is not for you. "We are not able to make simple 2D and 2.5D easely." If you can't run your software after 3 years, what makes you think you'll be able to run something...

What will a inexperienced CNC operator do... that the experienced operator will know better? Or like he said, step in poo.

If you move block N15 above and combine with block N9 you can save a trip forward with the sub-spindle. In addition the part will remain in the sub until it has to be removed, reducing the...

hacdlux,

It is no small thing that Esprit is the CAM system that Mori has placed in their control. A couple years ago it was Mori's goal to reduce the set-up and programming time on capital...

IF [ #3033 EQ 1.0 ] GOTO100

This syntax doesn't look right.
try
IF[#3033EQ1]GOTO100

Here is something else to think about, it is a macro used for a automatic door, maybe it will help.

Back a few years ago, when rigid tapping came out, I asked the machine salesman what tooling I would need for tapping. He stated that collets would be fine. Haas Applications also stated that collets...

Jon,

If the part has already been programmed, for say a VMC, I would save to a new esprit file. Rotate everything to the correct orientation (WCS works, but I like to orient the model inside the...

1) 50 Taper machine, and your using a ER16 collet for a 1/2-13? Floating tap holder with drive collets work great with rigid tapping. It gives the tap axial and radial float so the tap has a chance...

The taper is 1/16 inch in an inch, which is the same as 3/4 inch in a foot (angle 1o 47')

I'll try this one more time. You stated that you are using a Fanuc 6M. That control was created back in the early '80s. You are using Fanuc Macro B. System memory was at a premium. The early controls...

If it works with M0, why would you want to use M00? With the Fanuc 6M you will save a lot of data entry by using no leading "0" digit.

Mastercam has a lot to be desired in the mill/turn area, I would look at Esprit or Gibbs. Esprit will give you more control over your posts. Gibbs will be a shorter learning curve.
