we do have one okuma lb3000 with a tailstock osp300pl
i will try to remember that next time that okuma is out of whack. lol
good luck, let know how it goes.
lathes without y are simple to align. nothing like doing the y on an okuma with a subspindle.
we make gundrills here, i used to run the okuma and mazak and doosan lathes we have.
now im programming.
Yes, i can see this now.
it would have to zero at it home position.
I cannot help on the alignment for "y", sorry.
are you using "Y" axis for this tool?
ours has y, but we never have used it. when okuma was here to align it, i watched, it was all in the settings, nothing mechanical.
for drilling do you need to...
i put a indicator in the spindle, sweep pocket in the front and in the back.
if i am picturing what you are doing, you can try, indicating on top and then on the front or back of the tool.
let me...
Hi,
We have 5 fadal vmc here. Only one did we have to replace the Turcite. From the picture it looks like it is at the end of travel.
IMO, i believe if you clean that area up and do replace and...
i was just curious to see how you are holding the drill.
our shims go from .0005" to .050".
i have not had any issue with plastic shims and coolant (i think that might depend on your coolant type. we have a a complete set of plastic shims (store bought), that we cut to our needs.
how are...
deadly, i have used plastic shims, no damage to pocket.
as far as gundrilling, that is what we do here, you are correct, we use whip guides, that follow the drill.
we have used gundrills on one...
do you have enough space between the holder and the pocket to shim it?
have you contacted mazak? they are most helpful. should be able to get out to you no problem.
T-2 is a easy to operate control, once they get you going, im sure you will like it.
i take it your machine has no tool arm (touchsetter) to set tools with?
the video showing no.1 tool as your main tool, then all other tools are the difference in Z and X from tool#2,3,4 ect are to...
not a complicated part, can i ask, if you can get mastercam to give you the code, can you not just punch it in?
I usually will use two offsets when programming a profile/partoff tool to turn with...
I would think you would want to use a profile tool, as the blade is going to flex and not give you the results on turning.
as far the program, i am not sure what you want? need more info.
wow, that tells me all i need to know about you. nice.
so i guess everything you say is right and everyone is a fool?
well what if parts dont all measure the same and you are trying to hold a...
can i ask, what if your tlos are off the bottom of the part? or the table? then your z movements start at z+ and is very common programming.
the alarm 24 is a "NMI memory guard, display color red. " a cpu malfunction or self-diagnosis function (to write data) has entered data in a addressed with no memory.
thats what my book says.
deadly kitten is the okuma man. kindly :)
find how far it is from the spindle to the center of your pallet(should be on the machine or the book. and measure you tools overall length minus the gap that exists between the holder and spindle...
yes, you need some number in the tlo screen. positive if its the length of the tool or negative if its off the part.
depends on the program.
i like to use a harvey engraving tool
what kind of machine are you using?, i can code the numbers for you if its just the g code you want?
how are you setting your tlos? length of the tool or off the part?
from the info you gave, all i can think is, something with your tlo or z workoffset, if its going backwards when you start, you have a length issue somewhere
harvey engraving tool, 6000rpm, 4 ipm, 1 ipm feeding into part. thats what we do
when do you get the alarm, when you try to run a program?
from my experience with ours, if its not on, which it does not turn on with the lathe, it has its own power switch.
the only times i will get an alarm is if something in the program is calling out a...
hi, we do not have to toggle any bit.
i just dont turn on the bar feeder.
what is it telling you? i do have a block skip in the program as to not
let the bar feeder count parts
so if i understand this, you think you can master in 6 months what some take a lifetime to master......mold making?
sorry man, i just cannot see it. you cannot program g codes, but you want to...
