Hello

Well G41 and G42 in wire-cut EDM are not related to down-cutting and up-cutting as the wire itself doesn’t turn. And the wire doesn’t care on which side of the contour it should go through...

Hello
@ IceWind007
Maybe you mean deep holes drilling? That would fit better with your other statements. Elongated holes in the metal processing don’t mean drilling- it means something...

Hello
For what material and what working depth do you need it for?
Either your tool grinder should be able to do it or maybe some tool supplier can order them

Hello
First of all welcome in the CNC arena.

To your question:

If its possible to connect it directly depends manly on how much power (I) the parallel port provide to access the output stages....

There is a program from Heidenhain called "Cycledesign".. You can only get it when you took part in the particular trainings course offered by Heidenhain.
Or you create it as an external program...

You have to adjust the kinematics of the machine in the software for swivelled processes...
As far as I know that works by entering the password kinematics and then a list appears in which you can...

Hello

Yes, that's a problem we have had a TNC430 already and I solved it exactly like Stefan (WarFish) described it. Disassemble as far as possible and clean it properly.
For us it was back...

As far as I know that only works over the “Tool Call”. Otherwise the controller doesn’t know that there is a different tool in the spindle and that it needs to process with other corrections.
You...

Hello

We have an older version of that machine (Innovation3).
I also have a few problems with the time when processing threads; I also use the ‘cycle’.
However it doesn’t take several hours-...

Have you got a link or website of a tool manufacturer that offers something like that?

Regards
Spindler

Many tool manufacturer offer these information on their internet page. Either as 3D or as 2D view (especially for rotationally symmetrical tools).
Or as an alternative you can draw them yourself...

Hello
Yes, I have had the problem too, when you adjust a part with the clock without resetting the coordinate system previously. I also had reject due to that porblem....




When you...

Hello

As a program stop is directly linked to the breakage recognition, I am not sure if that’s possible. You should ask Roeder directly, they will be able to help you.
I know the problem from...

Hello
Take simply contours as an example and then create a program with him. Then he needs to do it alone. But stay with him and tell him directly when he does mistakes before he continues the...

Hello
Some controller (e.g. Hurco Ultimax/Winmax, Heidenhain TNC530) have as an option the possibility to read in DXF and create contours with them as long as they are in the 2,5D area.

Or read...

Hello

If you need it for Röders then you find useable commands in the manual. You get a PDF version if you go through the surface of the controller using the big push button ‘HELP’.
You can...

Hello

I only use the commander when I need a basic command which options are not so nicely described in the manual.
Otherwise the command file is directly expended by CAM and only small...

Please tell us where you can read or ask about it. Otherwise its normal that people regard topics like that critically, which is normally correct.
So don’t just write that its allowed to do it Tell...

Hello

@ Klartext



The software limit switches are stored in parameters (machine/controller parameters). And as I have read, the topic starter wanted to overwrite these parameters (if...

Hello.

First of all a warm welcome at the forums of CNC-Arena.


For TNC426/430 especially you will not find anything. But you can take the Software (programming station) for TNC530.
So you...

Hello

Search for “doconweb” at the homepage of Siemens, in Google or/and here in the forum. You’ll find there all manuals that Siemens released for download (almost everything!). I don’t know...

Hello

It’s generally possible. But you’ll have to conform to possibilities of the tool holder, the spindle and the used tools. You’d rather not try to work with large tools and/or high covering in...

Hello
Take a look at the website of “step-four”. They make XpertMill and maybe you’ll find there something that you need (operating manual/user guide):
"http://www.step-four.at"
More precisely, so...

Hello

@lucky_stars
your overview according to DIN/PAL is really good, but it will only help in case of basic commands. As far I know, Philips432 uses usually other commands, especially for...

Hello
Welcome to the CNC-Arena

Your CAM-trader can certainly help you in PP cases. Exchange of programs isn’t possible because PPs are usually a subject to copyright and only few of them are...

Hello

@ hesimon

to simplify matters I’d say you may get it directly from Haas. Just ask them, but it’s possible that the documentation isn’t for free.

Greetings Gerd

Hello

I didn’t participate because i have one already. And the others want to have one, too :)

Greetings Gerd

Hello

It would be better if one would also write the error message. Then other members could help faster and exacter. Because due to the message of the controller it’s possible to locate the...

Hello

As far I know, it’s impossible on Dialog 11/12 and can’t be changed. It’s one of the few disadvantages of this (relatively) old but good controller.

Greetings Gerd

Hello

As far as I know there is no freeware ( free of charge programs) for the Dialog 4 – not even as a demo.
There are programs which the controller can simulate as well but some of them are...
