  1. My coolant mister blows instead of sucks from the jug.

    Hi guys,
    I got a used router table with a Noga Minicool siphon mister but I can't get it to work. It's plumbed correctly but when I open the valve air comes out of the nozzle and also blows back...
  2. Re: Components for cutting thick plywood?

    200ipm is possible when cutting full depth through 1/2" plywood and full width of the end mill (3/8"?)? Ok, maybe I am underestimating what is possible. What components are needed to achieve this?
  3. Re: Components for cutting thick plywood?

    For cutting speed I guess I would want around 40 in/min. Is this a reasonable expectation? I want something for light to medium duty commercial work so cycle time is somewhat important. My prior...
  4. Components for cutting thick plywood?

    Hello all. I would like to build a machine that can cut 1/2" plywood in one pass (full end mill width) and with decent speed. I'm not sure how much power and torque this takes for the spindle and...
  5. Re: Reinstate Collet Close after Parameter Loss

    Hi guys,
    I'm going through this with a Cobra 65 with 21T right now. I used the Cobra 42 procedure from above but when I try to change D349 to 16, it flashes 16 for a split second but then goes right...

    Re: Hitachi seiki vk55 Z axis problem

    Maybe you need to have a G43 Hxx before the Z move? If you don't have a G43 offset stored then the machine doesn't know where to go. What if you do a G91 Zxxx move?

    Re: unable to create grooving path

    Looks like I got it. I had a rectangular tool selected instead of the grooving tool. Rookie mistake!

    unable to create grooving path

    I'm using Gibbs 2004 and am trying to create a process for this groove, and as you can see, the tool won't go down into the groove. Related to this is if I try to pick the lines of the radii, I'm...
  10. Re: Seikos III

    I know this is an ancient post, but I'm having the same issue on a mill with Seico II. Everything works fine except I can't input anything to MDI and get that alarm. Were you able to resolve this?
  11. Re: Can't get canned lathe roughing cycle to work

    Looks like I got the canned cycle part to work but the issue I'm still having is the tool doesn't clear the face of the part in Z when stepping down to the next diameter (for the rough turn op and...
  12. Can't get canned lathe roughing cycle to work

    First time user so this is probably something simple I'm missing. I imported a .step solid and created a roughing op. If I select "material only" rough style then the tool path is created ok, but I...

    Looking for a Seicos 3 manual/how-to

    I just installed a VK55 mill in my shop, it's our first CNC. Is there an operation manual available for the Seicos 3 controller anywhere? I really don't know where to start with this thing.
