Hi Crew,

Could someone please help a newbie to load monitoring on an OSP7000 LB15II.

Could you provide step by step instructions on how to set this up? Okuma Wiz I really liked your adjustments...

Thanks DeadyKitten,

I have calculated it per the manual for my machine so know what it is for this machine,rpm and lead.

Can someone please help me understand how the threading terms tie together in a G71 threading cycle?

L was a fixed value of 1x lead in the absence...

Okuma Wiz - thankyou for sharing your invaluable knowledge in this forum and with me. I assumed mathematically my code was 'spot-on'. Because it all adds up nicely. The reason I did/do this is...

Hi.

I tried with TNR = 0 and it made no difference.

However, when I turn off TNR comp in the contour definition, it does work.

What am I missing?


Iain.

Thanks for your reply, nice to hear from you :-)

0.8mm TNR and P value 3

Im at home for the night so cant try 0 TNR sorry atm.

Thanks Okumawiz!

Your help is truly appreciated and your contribution to this forum is second to none - thanks mate.

Ok....

Someone told me that the control wont recognise the G41,G42 etc when on the G81/82 line.

I moved the G41 down to the first line of the contour where it rapids to the start of the actual...

Okumawiz,

Jumped on the machine this morning, changed the P value to the correct one and re-ran the program.

The X-Z positions seem correct as I watch them. The tool moved in a 45 degree...

Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this Okumawiz,, I really appreciate it.


I did think the P value was wrong so went and checked a drawing I have - attached. (p value.png)

Hey DeadlyKitten,

A little Cryptic but I think youre just laughing at my mix of topics (I hope).

Hi Guys,

Some of you will know I have spent A LOT of time and energy moving into CNC, purchasing an LB15II and restoring it in my spare time and many of you have helped from the outset when I was...

Hi Deadly Kitten,

Thanks for your offer to help (Again :-) )

I had mine out the other day to check them.

Obviously play carefully around high voltages with machine powered...

Hi,

I had a look at my OSP7000 alarms manual and I too don't have that alarm code.

I am guessing there are different manuals depending on machine - i.e. is yours OSP7000 on a mill? Mine is 2...

Thanks Deadly Kitten,

Can you please explain why I must program 1.5mm either side of the geometry I want?

The 1.5mm in the Z- DIRECTION will be a problem as there is no material left.

Planned geometry in yellow.

Thank you again for your help and offer to look at my part problem.

I have attached drawing.

As you can see this is a thin wall part and I finish the inside first.

All machined with TNR...

Sorry, I didn't realise I hadn't posted that other groove.

I am struggling to get a part to come out the right length I presume owing to TNR comp.

Its a fairly long program.

If you are...

Thanks for you helpful response and explaining your code.

So, are you saying that I cannot change tool offsets without cancelling G42/G41? Cancel the TNR comp and call the new offset and re-call...
