    Re: MV2400S - Alignment Water on time

    Did you ever get this answered? There is a list of timers hidden in the Mits controller. There is one for the "Jet" on-time.

    Re: Mitsubishi FX10 wire EDM

    The FX series has been around for about 25 years. If you buy a used reader there is still a chance it may not work very well. You may want to consider getting one from MC Machinery. They still stock...

    Thanks in advance....

    Re: HELP PLEASE

    Does the machine have a hard time 'finding' the .020" hole? Your jet pressure may be too low or the jet itself may be out of alignment. Test the jet in open space at about a 5" height. It should go...
  8. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    I was referring to the '4 axis program'. If you're going to run it, make sure the 'Absolute UV' switch is turned on. Your machine has it in the- Maintenance menu->Switches->Switch Screen 2.

  9. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    Too late. I already made a program for a standard taper and one for 4 axis. Your geometry was simple enough for a standard taper but I thought I would also make a 4 axis so you could see the...
  10. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    Just realized your G code was in your original post. There are a few things that need to be changed-

    1. You need to have a wire compensation code (G41 or G42) otherwise your U and V won't move...
  11. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    Can you upload your G code program and an IGS, DXF, or DWG of the upper and lower contours?

    I have never used FeatureCAM (I use Mastercam) but it should spit out the code the same way. I will take...

    Go to: Create Curve-All Edges-

    Activate...
  13. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    Yes, The manuals could be written much better.

    Once the Z3 and Z4 numbers are set, never change them manually- always let the machine configure them. If your post outputs those codes, delete them....
  14. Re: Mitsubishi EDM Taper Cutting Problem (Buttress Thread Tool)

    Are you still having issues? I can help you if your machine is still not cutting tapers properly.

    Re: G-Code to DXF

    Hi All,

    I figured this is worth a bump.

    Wayne Hill's original program (post #15) and Jonk's (#36) were the only two that worked for me. Wayne's read all my G codes with the shortened syntax of...
