  1. Offline Programming software for TC4 with BPC-MC

    Hello,

    Wondering if there was ever offline programming software for the Torq-Cut 4 with BPC-MC. I suppose I can get into Fusion 360 if needed, but figured I'd see if there was something OEM...
  2. Re: Older Millport with Dynapath Series 20 (not Delta 20) - resurrect or retrofit?

    I ran it a bit back when it was still up and running - it seemed to be 'ok' at best. I recall losing home position and having to re-zero my part every time there was a power failure.

    Does...
  3. Older Millport with Dynapath Series 20 (not Delta 20) - resurrect or retrofit?

    This Millport was new from the factory with the Dynapath 20 control (3 axis with SEM motors and Heidenhain encoders). Fairly low hours when we shuttered it to make room for a new Haas - it had been...

    Re: Hard Turning?

    I don't know if you've already made a move yet or not, but we do lots of hard turning on Path I and Path II machines. Shaftwork mostly.

    I'm not going to lie, you definitely deal with taper,...
  8. Re: Help we need to learn to run the EZ Path system

    It's very intuitive once you get past the 'It isn't G-code' and 'It isn't a Mazak either'. It requires a bit of a shift in programming thinking, but they program like a breeze and, to be honest, are...

    Re: EZ path boot disk

    This may be a bit late, but really any DOS 6.2 boot disk will work. A quick google will find that for you.

  13. Fixing spindle on Haas or Mazak for broaching

    Hello all,

    Have a need to do some internal broaching. I've got a spindle lock setup for the VF-2 mill that could be used, but I'm evaluating using the lathe to avoid an extra setup.

    Our trusty VF-2 is acting up. Our Y-Axis, when left uncommanded, will drift. If an indicator is placed on the axis, once the machine is warm it will move some amount, back off a little,...

    I would imagine this has to be an Analog system. Then again, I can't swear to it. My knowledge on the subject is limited.

    I believe our maintenance guy cleaned the scale; We had the entire axis...

    Al,

    We've dug farther into this.

    We've completely disassembled the axis and verified that the mechanical aspect of things are correct.

    We've swapped the drives and servos and this exhibits...

    I actually know the rebuilder pretty well. I seem to remember them not remembering the machine much when I talked to them last. I'll give that a shot.

    Apparently I'm going to need some sort of 1747 module to talk to this thing. I spoke with a AB tech that said it could be as simple as an accidentally changed baud rate, or it could be a failing PV....

    Looks like I've just got RS232 on the 5/03 connected directly to the panelview 550 (2711-K5A9). I can't 'see' any device in between the two. If there was a device, what would it look like and where...

    No, there's nothing hooked to this that wasn't there yesterday or ever. I don't even see a place for a Cat5 cable.

    For what it's worth:

    Figured I would chime in and add that this is the parameter for the 640T Fusion control as well. I just used it on my '99 QT250HP.

    Thank heavens for this post, and google.

    A note, if you have to go that far and it's not obviously a cable or something, the set screw is under the encoder. It's a pain to see and get to.

    You are not going to believe this. I still don't.

    The set screw that tightens the encoder collar onto the motor shaft broke in half. The motor was spinning away wildly and the encoder was pretty...
