Please PM for further details.

Just sent you a PM, I don't monitor the forum every day. My bad.

Thanks for the pictures and suggestions. After looking at the pricing for the commercial units Geof's set up looks like the best way for me to go considering my situation.

Vern

I don't know if it is the same unit as used on the mills, I would think the Haastec would have the answer to that.

I would like to hear any advise - opinions on the usefulness and effectiveness of installing exhaust vents over machines to remove the damp coolant laden air from the room. I have a facility that...

I have a brand new never used remote jog assemble that came with a 2009 Haas GT-10 lathe. If you can use it I'll be glad to sell it to you. I can send you a picture if you like.

The entrepreneurial spirit and company loyalty shown by the two previous posters is admirable to say the least. I got a quote from my HFO six or seven months ago and it was $350.00 plus what I would...

I'm still looking for one of these if anyone has one to spare or can fabricate one cheap :D

I'm a slave to my CAM software so when I try to write any G code the results are usually not good. I'm attempting to get the turret to move in the Z direction only from what is essentially the tool...

Thanks, I assumed that taper compensation in the manual would indicate the ability to control taper, silly me :D I'll report the results.

I was hoping someone could tell me where and/or how to find the Tool Shift/Geometry page on my Haas lathe? It is referred to in the manual to be used for taper compensation but I have not been able...

Geof,

It probably was the wrong question. I ran afoul of some Haas internal electronic settings when I moved previously and found that the single phase voltage at my original location was 223 and...

My only hesitation was a very expensive visit from the local HFO to make magic changes in the machines electrical circuitry. It looks like I can take care of the hook up myself so I plan on going 3...

I guess I better call Haas :^ )

I appreciate the help. We don't run the machines all that much so efficiency from a KV used stand point is not as large a concern as getting a little more torque out of the spindle. Since we have to...

I have two Haas machines currently running on single phase. My new location has 3 phase available. My question is would there be an advantage to hooking them up to the 3 phase current. The manual...

There are times when it would be more convenient to have a button of some type that would actuate the collet closer on the lathe rather then using the foot pedal. I was wondering if anyone had rigged...

Yes, it could be pushing it a little. I have run 4-40 form taps this deep in 6061 but it was a solid block. I also used repeat rigid tapping with three runs at each hole to be sure there was plenty...

I'm looking for some advise. Hopefully someone has tried to do this. I want to make multiple pieces using 1/8" thick 6061. each of the sheet pieces has several 2.4 x .45 mm tapped holes in it.

This morning I did all the usual stuff, hit start up/restart, warmed up the spindle a little and started the same program it's been running the last week. As you can see from the pictures below she...

Aint that always how it goes :D

I have a 2006 TM-1P with the chip auger option. The old shop did not provide clearance to utilize the chute that carries the chips from the auger to a trash can of some type. I now have the room to...

Thanks everyone, Now I have lots of solutions and nobody gave me the read your manual lecture. I readily admit I depend almost exclusively on my CAM software and it's post processor to do all the...

Next time I'll try the MEM-EDIT sequence as you are suggesting. Out of curiosity, what am I doing to get into the dual screen mode in the first place.

Thanks Guys

It's a 2009 GT-10. I've tried punching a lot of the obvious buttons down the left side of the Operation Modes section with no response, like MEM, MDI, Handle Jog, etc.

Every once in a while I somehow dumb thumb myself into an edit mode where I end up with two edit screens, side by side. My problem is how do I get out of it? Rebooting works every time, as it always...

I can not complain about the parts department at my local HFO, they are very good with a quick quote and additional information as needed. I am mystified by the inefficiency of the Haas parts...

Press F4 before you run the simulation and it should stop at the offending line.

I think I have a combination of related problems and am trying to isolate them. I recently moved the lathe, Haas GT-10 chucker with air operated chuck. The foot pedal no longer works. The chuck will...

Now I see, thanks for the update. Guess I'm still living in the last century. :D
