Hello everyone,
Been awhile since I have posted here.
The link below is a program that will take your ALL file from the Haas classic controls and separate it by O##### + the text in the first...
Immediate need for a full time CNC Machinist
The candidate shall have the ability to setup and operate CNC mills, you are not required to program complex geometries, but you must be able to write...
Working on LOTO procedures. Have my Haas CNC's procedures completed, but am looking for procedures for manual equipment to use a guide.
Thanks,

Bill,
In response to your questions respectively;
1. Our machinists create code as dictated by their level of technical competence. We have machinists that vary from school trained to 30+ years. ...

From my perspective, the machinist 'food chain' is as follows;
Master CNC Machinist/Programmer: Extensive CAD/CAM Experience. Multi-axis Mill and lathes with live tooling, etc, etc, etc. ...
I have to agree with a previous poster.
You are only willing to pay $18.00 max for someone with the requirements specified....wow! Even with the economy as bad as some percieve, you would have...

only 2 of the current 6 machines have usb drives, 4 of 6 have floppys, only one has ethernet. In essence, I would have to pay Haas to enable the floppy on 1 machine 500.00, then buy 4 usb drives to...
If the service guy came, he would probably do a ballbar test. Some service guys have a great understanding of machining, clamping, programming etc, but many don't. It's not their fault, it's their...
The thinner webs on the edges could be lending itself to a distortion issue, depending on your clamping pressure. The bore shouldn't be .013-.014 out. I would put an indicator in the machine and...

I looked at the spectrum site, I could not get enough information from the site to put together a proposal. There were no prices. To request info, way to many required fields. The cost isn't the...
You said you wanted to cut the laptop and go usb. This is easy.
All you need is;
1. software that can send the file, there are alot of different programs out there that can do this and may...
xiondavis,
What tranciever are you using on the desktop, and what software?
Thanks,

Hello all,
We are going to be moving into a new building soon, and I am looking to go wireless with the rs232. Has anyone else done this? Will be a total of 8 haas cncs and one computer to...
Tom,
The biggest problem from what I see is that you have no control of the Z axis which without, changes the thickness of the cutting edge as you move along the length of the blade. The diameter...
Geof is telling you the smart way to do it, you want the front wheels under the weight. I've seen it with the wheels behind the weight (boom extended), and with the boom turned about the frame 180...
Every haas mill in our shop has done this to date as of 2 days ago. The crimps on the air lines on 4 mills. The coolant line actually delaminated and ruptured.
Sam
Wow, like geof siad, would love to see pictures of the crack? Sounds like it was just a defective ball screw?
But.....there could be some other underlying issues.
Which axis, since the Z is...
We have a VF4SS, The only thing I can really say negative about the SS, is the High Speed Tool Changer. Yeah, its cool seeing a tool change in the blink of an eye. But at what cost? Our 4 is the...
Chris,
My first assesment would be the spindle encoder belt. Every Haas lathe that I have ever had any experience with has had this belt changed when the machines are 3 to 4 years old. If it is...
It is really amazing how fast we can push our machines. We have one setup we hog out with a 3" shell mill on a 4" tombstone on an hrt-210....and when the tool starts making chips, its a violent chip...
You would be suprised at how much stuff they have to give away, or can even sell, yet they don't. Oxnard has a whole catalog of stuff, that is practically impossible to get. I even tried to get a...
We are running 2 VF2 supers, a VF4 super and a VF2. Running mastercam and some shopcam ocasionally. The last company I worked for bought bobcad while I was running mastercam v8 in lieu of...
Rob & CNCClimber,
Thanks, for the replies. I'll contact my dealer monday. Getting ready to install X3 this weekend, will check to see what post is on the CD.
Any good sites for info on the...
If you play your cards right, you can generally negotiate 5%. Get quotes on a similar machine from milltronics, etc. Make sure the other guys sales literature is visible when the haas rep visits,...
Robert,
We are looking to purchase and okuma mcv 4020, I noticed you have the mc 4020, I don't know the product line well enough to discern the differences. The machine we are considering is a...
You can actually by pass the whole settings 51 thing, by doing the following.
On older mills, a pc jumper is all that is required...on the I/O pcb there is a connector I believe P38, remove the...
