try programming in an "M19" prior to the cycle, this will orient the spindle, (you can MDI it in to see if the spindle does orient). if you see the spindle physically orient itself then the control...

Hello, we have a cnc mill/lathe each capable of holding tenths, please forward iges or step files to [email protected], thanks.

Hi , would you consider doing business in Canada? If so, who will cover shipping costs? thanks.

maybe laser! or try .5 ipm and .040" peck-drill with cobalt or carbide & flood it to death!

when i was in aerospace while milling thin aluminum we used endmills with negative flutes, this will push the mat'l down while milling instead of it trying to pull up the spirals of the flutes

surely you don't have over 400 programs in your control, if you do...why? download them back to your computer and reload when you need them!

depends on what your trying to achieve.... roughing, finishing? tolerances and surface finishes will have a big impact on how aggressive you can be....eg: in 4140 i run a 3/4" dia. indexable carbide...

Hi, there are several methods, you'll have to decide which one is best for you.1.) machine the cavity out of solid in order to accept the part with some clamping method to hold the part in the...

(nuts)put the control on 'tape' mode, press 'cycle start', then send the program as you would to memory. the control should take as much as it needs automatically. i don't understand how you can have...

Sorry, don't know this control, but it could be same issue, there's a parameter which might need tweeked, i would ask your ultimax guy, could save you alot of grief!

what type of control do you have- if it's fanuc, could be a parameter. i've had this issue before and thats all it was.

figure out your overhead ( shop rate/ hr) figure out how long it will take. multiply the two....presto! add something for your pension, you may need it sooner than you think.

try metalsupermarkets, they're slow but could probably track down your needs

not sure what you're asking here. if you know the i,j values you can easily determine the radius as the i & j are are your adjacent & tangent values. therefore the hypotenus is your 'R' value. if you...

Hello all, I'm looking for a post-processor to output g-code to a 4-axis Haas mill (controller is the same as a fanuc),the cad/cam file is from catia v5. the alternative is a converter from catia v5...

DON'T U HAVE THE MANUAL?

-TLON MEANS 'TOOL ON'
-THE CO-ORDINATES FOLLOWING 'INDIRV' IS THE VECTOR
-'GOFWD' MEANS GO FORWARD ALONG THE CIRCLE DEFINED(.125 IS THE RADIUS OR DIA.) ON LINE 2 WHICH BEGINS AT THE...

YOU'RE LOOKING FROM BEHIND THE TOOL AS IT IS MOVING FORWARD TO DETERMINE THE DIRECTION.

use 'GOLT or GORT' MEANING 'GO LEFT' or 'GO RIGHT' TO DETERMINE WHICH WAY TO MOVE THE TOOL. IT MAY ACTUALLY BE 'GOLFT' or 'GORGT'. CAN'T REMEMBER EXACTLY....LONG TIME AGO....WOW!!!

this means 'in direction vector'.
it's been a long time but i used it quite a bit at mcdonnell douglas now known as boeing. we started using ncl software which will read apt. ncl gave us the graphic...
