Hello,
Could you guys post some sample program for star swiss type lathe, please (Fanuc control). I was programming TW-10, WT-150 Nakamura Tome and Maier 20MLD swiss. Now I'm trying to learn...

That is the problem, I cannot rotate a cylinder. Previous engraving was done by some guy, before I arrived, I don't even know what soft he has used. It looks to me every single digit or letter is...

thanks, I'll try it today.

Hello everybody,
I'm looking for software able to produce code to engrave text, numbers on the cylindrical surface. I know mastercam can do it, but my budget is tight. Maybe someone know some...

I have macro to engrave some letters and numbers on cylindrical part. Problem is, I don't know anything about macros made for Siemens, I'm a macro B guy. Is there any good book you guys could...

Well, that I cannot do. The one I was using (Ecocool S761, Fuchs) was killing everything, rust was all over the machine. That is why we have gotten rid of it.
Any suggestion about good cutting...

Hi all,

I used to tap steel 9310 using 8-32NC tap, depth of blind hole 0.3inch, thread .23inch. Since we have changed water based coolant to oil based coolant (prisma 517 Total) I cannot make even...

I'm looking for 1/4dia square end mill, depth of cut min 3/8 (1/2 to 5/8 would be perfect) to machine hardened steel (55HRC). Thank You for any help.

Hi,
I need to use two 3J collet chucks (true length made by ATS) to make a part. Unfortunately the one I pull out from another Nakamura has different joint(element to connect chucks body with the...

No, I'm the one who gives 120% and say laud then I expect to be paid for my effort. I'm first to go where no one in my company went yet, I'm taking the risk, I set the machine up, design machining...

Well, regarding Brits, a lot of them say Pole is always drunk because they have seen one idiot from Poland sleeping on the sidewalk but... they don't see their country men (groups of 20-30 people)...

One of the posts on this forum says then if I will install usb driver, I don't have to use card reader (which is already dead) to upload the programs. That is the reason I'm asking for help...

Hello all,

John South,
