I actually find out that the machine is ignoring the Fixture Offset settings. G4501 is in the program, but not matter what numbers I enter in Fixture offset under X, Y, or Z, the machine goes to the...

I have a MP 8400 and the tool offset page will only let me put in +or- .500. If I put -5.743 and hit enter, it still puts -.500. On the Fixture offset page, I can put -5.700 under the Z setting, but...

I am running a VTM-120Yb. My cad cam system writes my program using more than one G68 in a row. Example:
G0 G90 B90.0
M74
M64
G97 S406 M13
G68 X5.19 Y0. Z-2.0 I0 J1 K0 R90.0
G43 H26 D26 M8
M69...

We got a new YB120. Is there a way to change the tool setter parameters? It sets the tool tip at the surface of the chuck. Can you make it set the tool tip at say 10 or 20 inches in the positive...

Actually, it is a Okuma MX-45VBE with an OSP U10M control. We also have a MC-60VAE with an OSP7000M.
Thanks annoying, I will try your trick and see if that works. It would be easy to fix the post...

Is there a way to make an okuma ignore tool change command when the tool you call is already in the spindle. I get an alarm now. The haas that i used to run just ignored that line. Thanks.

I figured it out. It was parameter #2 on the user page (LONG WORD).
I changed it from 1000 to 200. Now it returns to .02 abve where it retracted from.

Thanks

Oh, and it's an Okuma mill, MX-45VBE with a OSP-U10M controller.
Thanks

Does anyone know if the distance that the pecking returns, can be changed? If I do a 2 inch deep hole lets say, and my code is G83 R.02 Z-2.0 Q.04 F 2.5, the machine will retract, and then go to .100...

Thanks all. I put M64 <write> <enter>, and the tool gets put away. I did not need to put M6 in.

Just google Null modem

On an MX-45VBE mill with an OSP-U10M controller, I was wondering if there is an M code that cancels a tool call. In other words, I don't want to have to do an M6 to clear the tool call. Is this...

We put the head down on a piece of wood in the vise before moving, so I don't think any of the axises could have moved.

I will look into that highoctanecnc, Thanks

Just in the Y axis. If I try to move the Y axis first, I get the error. It will home the X and Z even while the error is on the screen.

We have a Mazak VTC-16. We moved it to a new location, and now it won't work. We start it up and home Z axis, and X axis, but Y axis won't home. It says it hits a soft stop, error 103 (I think). Does...

I have a Doosan 4020 and a 3016 with 21i MB controllers. They have RS232 ports. I need to make a cable (25 pin machine to 9 pin computer) to hook up to the serial 9 port on computer. Does anyone know...

Thanks for the reply.
I have already given up on the idea of trying to do this. It is not that big a deal for us anyway.
I do have another problem. We have a 4020d and the machine will not run with...

Does anyone know the parameters to change on a i series Fanuc controller to double the memory? Is it 0901? The machine is a Daewoo DMV-3016d.

Thank you very much. That did it.

I have a Haas VF-1. It is a 1994 model
On the offset page, whene I put a value in the Z column under G54, I need to put minus in front of the value to raise. Is there a way to reverse this?

Thanks

We are using a straight 2 flute carbide router bit. The same as they have used for years. They even tried a couple new ones.

I am climb cutting.
The pattern is very equal. In other words it is like a gear. I check the run out of the tool and it had about .003 one tooth to the other. They have been cuttin g these things...

We have a motionmaster 4 foot by 8 foot router with a 7.5 HP motor. It has a top RPM of 18,500. We cut plywood and 3/16 " plastic. We are getting real bad chatter marks on the edges of the plastic. I...

I got your procedure. Thanks.
I did get a copy of parameters and entered them.
Now machine will not clear Emergency stop.

No, I could not retrieve them from eprom. How can I get them?
It is a AJV/25-40 built in 1991.
Thanks

Has anyone ever replaced spindle bearings in a high speed CNC router spindle of a Perske motor?
Is it hard to do?
Any suggestions?

Thank you.

I have a Mazak machine that starts up but won't home. It has an error "42 Parameter error" I don't have a back up disk. Is there a way to pull the parameters from the eprom? What other options do I...

Thanks shotout. I will check into newegg.
And thanks everyone for responding.

I may need to replace one that is acting up. I have a micro disk for our Mazak, and that thing has a non standard floppy drive.
