Goldens' Foundry and Machine Company is looking to fill two positions within the Cordele GA plant. The Cordele plant is located an hour south of Macon GA and one mile off of Interstate 75. Goldens'...
Thank you for the help. I'll print this out and give it to our maintenance Dept so we can start looking.

Green and white, has been repainted but the inside of the door is green and a better finish than the outside paint so it looks like factory, Model F-M2. And you are right it is a MSC500 not MSC200,...
Control is on a Mori mid to early 80s can't read the data panel well enough to get the details. Boots up as MSC-200 for the control type, but is a Fanuc control.
Alarm is an EX0097 Panel I/O with...
Superman you nailed it. I manually inserted a tool into the spindle this morning and it went fully into the taper with no resistance. Looks like more than just the ATC arm needs repair. Makes me...
Thanks guys. I'm guessing alignment could be a culprit. All the operator knows how to do is load the fixtures and press the work load button so I'm not going to fault him. MACMAN says no inputs as...
Hey guys. I've got one for you. What could cause a tool arm to break in the middle of the casting on an MA500? There isn't a visable defect in the casting. From what maintenance has told me the arm...
In aluminum I'm fond of the Garr 3 flute alumastar (sp?) coated end mills. I've had good luck with conventional speeds and feeds as well as HSM with the same mill. Plain jane MSC Accupro Zrn coated 3...
I didn't have time on it. My first ever "real" die set and it was expedited by the customer and for some reason the planner accepted despite my warning during quoting about development time as this...
Talk about a flash from the past. One excellent reason for adjusting a post is that they are generic. The OSP200 post doesn't use a lot of functions of the control unless you edit the defaults in the...
We create in process SPC inspection charts for the operators at our shop. We use an AQL Inspectors Ruler like this http://www.aqlinspectorsrule.com/details.html . Our form is a generic excel spread...
It just occurred to me, but can this part be treated as 2 90deg bends?
I had planned on doing something like what you suggested to test starting with a true dimension and then working it in but when the planner agreed to expedite it kind of killed that. We normally...
We have been getting an influx of formed parts at work lately but not the tooling to make them. We've been having to build tooling and this is somewhat outside of our area of expertise. I currently...
We use a 3M tape spec'ed out by the 3M adhesives rep rather than carpet tape, but MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) available through paint stores in bulk is a great solvent for adhesives. Read the safety...
Just a starting point. Rigidity of machine tool, work holding etc affect these numbers. Use the lower end of the range provided as a starting point.
These are for HSS and M42 (Cobalt) tools. Chart...
I tested the Sumitomo drills and found them lacking in these respects:
1. Tool life. I ran the normal Iscar drill on the left hand part and the Sumi drill on the right hand mirror image part. I had...
I'll second that recommendation. The Cham drills from Iscar are a real nice product. I've used them in different insert grades in 17-4 and 18-8 stainless as well as ductile and gray iron. Have a...
You want a cutting tool to cut and running a SFM that is to low will cause the tool to rub rather than cut. With a tool of any material if it isn't cutting then excessive heat is being generated....

After getting a quote of $2000 per seat that was my next step pun not intended. Right now we don't have any verification software, not required with the parts we are doing, so file integrity in...
Our QA uses PCdimis for the CMM, wonder if it can be purchased as an add on. I'll check into that. Thanks
What software are you using to program your probe? I'm tired of typing CALL O9810 PX= PY= PZ= PF=
O9811 PZ= PE= PF=
etc etc etc.
We've got 1 RMP60 and are going to add another to our MA-500
...
I think it really depends on just how much you're trying to get out of the software. If you do simple parts, lots of curves, a few surfaces etc then sure it is stable. When you start getting into...
Does MC offer a converter only license add on that can be installed on our network? We have 4 seats and one has a converter for UG and Pro E files so when we want to import a model we have to get...
Contracting would work well for training only and was my initial thought but I was thinking more long term for the shop. I read very young to be little or no real life experience as machinist and...
You have 6 people that have no clue on how to turn on, home the machine, set offsets, load programs, dry run those programs and proof those programs in a machine.
You are self taught, but have...
If you mount everything to plate you could make the entire tailstock removable with the tombstone and use ball lock pins to locate it and lock it in.
