You need to get all the air out of the tubes between 1-2 and 2-3 for it to siphon.

Hi, I see your 0 in X Y and Z is set on the edge of your stock, my guess would be that your stock is off .005 or so from what you have your stock set. When you flip the part over it doubles any...
Could someone enlighten me on how its designed to be used? As in setting tool offsets and work offsets.
Thank You,
Carl
I'll probably end up re-measuring my tools.
In MDI I can set an offset (if I would enter an offset for my Haimer) but when I switch to manual mode to find the WCS of my part it reverts to 0...

So I was using a touch sensor w/light to set my work offsets and now got a Haimer 3D sensor.
I use a micrometer style pre-setter to get tool length offsets using the...
I give my "thumbs up" to Kevin at CNC Technical, he helped me out with trouble shooting and a replacement board for our Okuma this spring.
Here is what I use on an old OSP-7000 control if I have a program that only uses one tool, therefore when restarting the program the tool is already in the spindle.

I think yellow is rapid move, blue is cutting move, green is lead in move, red is plunge.
I did some engraving a couple month ago, but used a piece of anodized aluminum from ebay, not sure what your best bet will be for paint.

Yes, the second link is for the ProtoTrak, we have one in our shop. You can use it manually with the hand wheels, program it on screen with canned cycles or direct moves, or load a g-code file. When...

Thanks, I'll check how near it jives with what I had/have now.
Thanks, OkumaWiz! Makes me feel kinda small for not thinking of that....

I'm having some trouble getting a file to my mill. I'm getting this error "311 device full error 200FF". This file is around 500 lines of code and I know I got some bigger files to go before.
It...
Thanks for to info!
I was looking at some 10-15 yr old mills. I noticed the TM1 and MiniMill can both run on single phase. What are all the differences between the two? (TM1 with toolchanger and programmable coolant...
I had a question about the torque limiter% in the parameters but didn't find anything in the manual. My toolchanger (on MX-55VB) kept alarming on over torque and I upped the allowed percentages a bit...
Hi all,
Is there a way to clear the previous owners tool dia. and length offset data on our Okuma VMC with 7000M control?
Thanks,
Carl
Here is a pic of the control. I'll have to go look/work at it again, found out this morning it still had a program loaded, and I cleared that. Like I read on here somewhere, I'm starting to learn how...
OK, I forgot to mention the control is OSP 700M. So when I am at the "Actual position screen" and push the MDI key on the keyboard what F button (or other button) do I press to enter the g code S500?...
Hi all,
Got the power hooked up to our MX-55VB and was moving the table around with the pulse generator, then I wanted to turn the spindle on, found in the manual to set the speed in MDI mode with...
Hi all,
We got a new (to us) 1998? Okuma MX-55VB mill with the OSP700M control and at the RS-232 port I see it says something about using a tape reader. My question is, is this port just for a tape...
Hi, and thanks for all the info provided here, I hope to learn more and also contribute.
