Hi there, my name is Marius from Brisbane AU. I am generating programs using the machines IGF function and it works well and quite fast however on Gibbs I can do things so much better. Would anybody...

no cam software?

Hi all, employment opportunity in tropical Darwin, NT, AU. We run manual and cnc machinery. small company, 450 sqm shed. Manual machinery is couple of centre lathes, and V/mills. CNC machinery is One...

Ok, I would like to start with what is happening with our company.
We are trading a Kitamura My centre 2C and our Kitako/Kitagawa CNC lathe for a new VMC. we are looking for travel on x about 1400,...

I would like like manage my own posts, including editing and perhaps creating. I am not looking to take business away from anyone, but purely so I don't need to ring though changes if and when...

form 1 being standard and form 2 being alternative... sorry!

you might need to look at an alternative stub acme thread which is the standard tolerances at major diameters and thread thickness at the pitchline (.5P). The basic heiht of thread form 1, height is...

i use gibbs cam also at work so I'll look and see if gibbs have a program for 1-3/6" stub acme in the morning.

here is one on my programs
I needed to grind a tip on a tool and cutter grinder
hope this helps:

T404 (3 TPI ACME TUNGSTEN BRAISED TIP)
G97 M03 S225
M08
G00 X109. Z6.
M24
G92 X104.2...

eject let me show you a typical program I have done a few weeks ago for an acme thread

what is your thread gauge? Are you looking for a loose fit.

I am running out of ideas. I'm very logical and practical person. If all else fails, perhaps your testing gauge is non standard.
...

yes they will be wider. I wanted to warn that, as a way around chatter. after my last post

I think so mate.

major and minor diameters are correct.
you have the pitch (12 tpi)
( you have the insert/tool correct geometry )
your speed and feeds are acceptable you say

are you...

no difference mate acme or no acme unless your making a mistake with cam software in geometry. are you using Cam software?

no need to feel challenged by this thread.
you will need to take many...

G92 quite good, can stipulate each pass. personal preference I use both

We know who agents for Kitamura in AU are, but before trying them, I'd like to ask if anyone knows if the Kitamura make replacement telescopic guards for the X-Axis on a Mycentre 2C. Plus the...

Hi Tim

Do you have a post for hyundai kia skt21Lm using fanuc oi t controller?

Hyundai Kia with an oi controller is the incremental value of C, H?

thank you

what speed is your starified screensaver running at ? :)

is there a G30 on your lathe with perhaps mechanical dogs you can move around??


Cheers :cheers:

dump em via -9999 and then email it and pay a smart 10 y/old nephew/niece $100 bucks. It will be a deposit on a PS2 game for em, and will take em about, well for 450 programs like I got my...

hi everyone
we have a hyundai kia lathe with oi t controller. Has live tooling, but a proven program on another machine put on it I end up with a torque error. I've been looking in the fanuc...

I agree with shawnncnelson: the increment buttons and axis select could save my neck turning quite a few times a day. I'm in 'Oz so my metric conversion of rapids of .100" are .1mm. When in home on...

If can also be of any help: mine is a Jan 04 model (SL30) Lathe and when restarting make absolute certain to have the turret jogged to a safe enough position to do a full rotation of the turret. If...

Hi
We had troubles with rigid tapping also on our lathe, manual said use M12 to engage. After looking at the parameters and speaking to fanuc rep we need to use M112. I think the parameter number...

We have a Kitamura MyCentre 2C with Fanuc 11M Controller. We find our Z home is fine but the very first Automatic tool change will Jam, once jogging it back home. From then on it is all good for the...

I totally agree with the last two posts, it is not hard to provide the information required to have the answer provided in 5 quotes should have beed 4 but I do advise that the previous requests from...

My job is my passion, I'd rather be at work enjoying my time learning and every bit of science to it, than anything else.
My only regret is, I didn't take chemistry at school...I was too interested...

Agree with NC, I do. Am first to admit I was wrong, and it is correct to check fits/limits when no tolerance was requested by the customer. There are so many variables and I do understand the...

In theory say with 316 stainless would you give a 3.00mm wall section whatever, a 0.05mm crush.
Like to know what the theory is for wall thicknesses is from say 3.mm to 10.mm (1/8" - 3/8") if you...
