I am trying to help a friend setup and program a Biesse Rover router. I am in Los Angeles and have worked with all types of CNC machines, with all kinds of controls. 1999 NC 410 Controller. What are...

I've heard through the grapevine that there is a dos based program called something like swissPro(not sure) or something like that? Anyone have any such files or know where they might be or what they...

ISCAR,

It is a Hitachi Seiki HT23 2 axis CNC lathe. Coolant is flowing right on the blade, OIL is the coolant. I will purchase a smaller parting blade, hadn't even thought of that. Thanks!

Insert is mentioned above. Oscar .160 wide. I've started to experiment with pecking and slowing down the spindle, but no concrete judgement has been reached. I'm using oil as my coolant and the...

The insert is .160 Iscar, GFR4-8D IC354

I am trying to part off some 304stainless .625 rod. Very close to the chuck. I'm using an Iscar holder and insert. Question is What RPM's do I start with. I've tried CSS with .003 IPR, 140sfm and...

OK, so we replaced the punch reader card and Viola it's fixed! Thanks for the Replies. On a side note, anyone know why I can not run sub programs. I've tried to run them and can not.

I've spoke to Fanuc. They were not much help.I can punch out programs and not read them. This is weird. The stuff I read about parameters, they all pan out OK. The info about program numbers in the...

I can not get programs into my machine. I've trouble shot the heck out of this thing. The wire is good, the computer is good, communicates with my Hitachi Seiki lathe. Also tried a computer that...

I have a Hitachi Seiki CNC Lathe. One of the drive units went bad. Can I upgrade to newer technology with the replacement? It seems to make sense to me. I've built a home retrofit machine before and...

I am in Los Angeles, and I have a HT-20 with a seikos control that I bought as is and have never used. The machine powers up and does all the computer checks, I can even use the gui. I have two...

I went through m31 then the manual toolchange, I hit the limit one way on the rotation, that made it jump a tooth on the pinion gear. The solution was to manually do the change movements with the...

I've been thinking about either a BTR or retrofitting the machine. I am a homebrewer hence the screename. It used to be my standard beer till I started making beer. I will look into the new memory...

I have an MV35-40 with a fanuc 6m control. When I run 3D toolpaths the machine is bogged by the processor and cannot run at the programmed speed(no look ahead). My question is if I use a BTR with a...

I'm considering buying a BTR. Two companies have given me prices of about $1000, with 128K. Anyone have experience with this?? How long of a program will this hold? Is it expandable? I'd rather not...

I have recently run a bunch of parts that required 5-8 toolchanges each. The job went over without a hitch. When I started the machine a couple days later the ER3 light is on. I tried deleting all of...

I have an older Fanuc 6m Controller. The Memory has been upgraded so I can fill it with data. However the programs are limited to 9999. I've thought about doing the subprogram thing, but then would...

I think I have added memory in my 6Mb. But I cannot get by the program being limited to 9999 lines. What is your solution to this problem?

I still can not get anything to loosen up. I have turned on the machine and tapped the shaft upwards with a 6 pound sledge(aluminum in between) and still nothing. I have taken some pics and posted...

I did a toolchange with a M19, M31, M80-89 and I did not send my z back to zero. Now my changer is not aligned. I've taken apart most of the arm. Now I just have the shaft to deal with. I can not...

I met these guys at AWFS in Vegas. www.techniksusa.com. Not sure if they are metal cutting quality?
