G'day mate

Try a squirt of rocol instead of coolant...

all of our tapping is done with rocol,It'll help you taps last a bit longer
...

Can anyone help me?

I'm looking for a detailed drawing of a worktop mitreing jig
I am looking to make one but cannot find a drawing anywhere online..

PDF file attached of what I'm looking...

You may need to turn on G41 on a line of its own..

Funny but whenever I manually G code on the lathe,my right index finger seems to follow what the tool should do!

I'm with Geof on this one...while QC looks good to a new machine buyer it also reduces your "knowledge",if you learn G code(which aint that hard on a lathe)..you should be ble to run most any...

Not really clear on what your asking....G4 is a dwell but cant see how that can help you.

G73 is a chipbreaker cycle...

Maybe post your code might be able to help further

No worries....just remember if you change anything on your control definition,just change one thing at a time..then check if it works..if it doesn't it's easy to change it back again

I've got X but prefer 9...it's a comfort thing...will have a look at an mcx set up

check your control definition in Arc>mill>helix support...check in all planes supported

I might be barking up...

My ramping program looks like this....all in metric...10mm cutter 25mm hole

Mastercam for me V9,cant seem to get into X..dunno why

Anybody use Catia...

Ok so I'm old skool...been brought up on coolant for everything,just flood it, more the merrier type....

So some of the young fella's keep on asking how come I dont use more air to remove chips.....

Tricky little job....just interested,how do you check the .02 internal radius

I may be wrong,i believe all the 9000 programs are on the floppy that came with your machine

Roll tap will have difficulty forming stainless....drill bigger than 6.8...maybe 7.0mm if your tolerance allows it and use rocol tapping fluid and spiral flute tap

I've learnt that the apprentice is doing it next time....:idea:

Top marks my friend....cleaned it out she's all good,coulda warned me of the stench tho'...Phuck

Sure mate...drop us a PM..if you need any help

Me too mate..Southsider..welly point,Work at Eagle Farm

Good choice mate...Whereabouts in Aus?

Thanks mate..will take a look..1st thing Monday

Sorry mate..what do you mean by separator thing?

I just call it a bull mill with a 3mm rad...remembering that you actually get a uncut portion of about .6mm at the tip

As the title says really...all of a sudden i'm getting a full container of coolant after say a couple days...any clues anyone

you could try rocol...comes in liquid or paste form

G'day Dave,
Many thanks for taking the time to answer,your solution was spot on!
I had finished the part a day earlier than your answer....by drawing the bloody toolpath all around it (about 2...

Hi fellas
Avid fan of these forums and just learning the 3d part of mastercam,
I have hopefully managed to draw a 3d part and surface it and attach it for any of you to help me with it.

I need...

Ok so here's the story...I have now got a couple of renishaw probes with the "cherry" broken off...the rest of the probe is ok.

I know I can buy the whole probe stem,but was wondering has anyone...

could be machine reads ahead and you have a point missing on G01Z-6 3 lines afer

Trigger here from Brisbane, 44 year old CNC machinist with experience of fanucs,G code programming and mastercam software,my company has just bought a haas lathe and mill,thats how I came about this...
