Hello - Are you driving your axis with the MASSO directly or do you have Axis Drivers as well?

The MX200 final version of the ATC in action "Getting it Done"

I am willing to pay for a safe Post Processor for HSM that supports the above router. Code example below attached (Metric output)
M03 S7000
G00 X0.0000 Y0.0000 Z20.3200
G00 X-280.5063 ...
Hello - Anyone know of a simple post for HSM that outputs code for a CNC Masters lathe?
Cheers
Anyone got a warmup program for this controller on a Talon MX200 ?

Steve - In my application the Sinumerik 808D control has provisions for 4 "Fixed Position" variable sets (X,Y,Z). Each set is a tool pocket location. The Tool Change macro logic figures it all from...
Yea... floating zero. No zero micro switches. Hard to use but possible. I have a CNC Masters lathe like that. X,Z are zeroed out wherever you set. Then the controller counts pulses from there. Be...
Should work perfect.
What type of Tool Holders?
Do you have a power draw bar?
Hi - If you click on the photo you will go to my web site where the video is. It would be easy to make this work with Mach 3 (easier than the Siemens controller).

I wanted an ATC but Smithy didn't offer one for the MX200 Talon. The "Rack" type hogs some machining real estate so that had to go. Here's what I did. Easy.

I wanted an automatic tool changer but also wanted to use the full machining envelope of the machine. OEM had no options to I made one.
See link.

Just finished my home made Fogless coolant/air delivery system. I'm suprized how well is woks. Used a Home Water filter as a tank. No more mess on the machine or me.

Thanks for visiting my website. Funny thing is that the more CNC machines I have the more I need the manual machines to fix parts and make tooling.... Never sell my good old mill.
No 4th axis. I got stuck with the shipping damage. Machine should have been crated.
So far I can circular interpolate a 2" hole within .0005" (Aluminum plate .5" thick)
Yea. the tool rack is table mounted and inside the machining envelope. I'm in the process of designing a sliding rack that will retract out of the way with air cylinders. This mod would be...
MX200 up and running. Not perfect but pretty nice.

Well my new Smithy MX200 arrived. Haven't made parts yet but got it powered up. Very poor preparation for shipping resulted in damage. The machine wasn't in a create but was bolted to a steel frame...
I have a clean slate to setup tooling for a small (4hp) VMC. What tools do you leave setup all the time?
I'm in Victoria. I'm having the machine delivered to Blain where I will pick it up and bring it across the boarder and "Self Broker" it. Yep, GST. Price to ship to Blain was $850 US.
Cheers
I'm in Canada so I expect delivery in one month. I will certainly offer my opinion on this forum. 4HP, Servo drives, BT30 and a real controller. We'll see.
Thanks
Update - I got some references for the MX200. Very well liked. So I bought one.

Anyone own one of these. I like the specs and am on the edge of buying one but Smithy will not allow me to talk to a current owner.
Cheers
Hello - Have you 3D printed this model yet? Cheap way to test your concept and look for simplification opportunities
My machine is big enough to make it in one.
Cheers
Hello All - I have a 2011 Supra mill. During a 6" dia circular Interpolation both axis (X&Y) shutter a little bit when they start to reverse direction. Could this be a power supply issue as the...
