    The machine we use most is a Power R. It is a very good machine, also. Is your 'R' machine windows or DOS driven? I would like to hear more about your machines.

    Sounds like we are running about the same things. You don't use pkg 4? I've had 2 years on them too. Maybe we can help each other out with any problems.

    No i dont use P4 for the moment , its easier and faster to use
    P32 and you also have more power for grinding complex profiles
    i think you have a limitation in P4 that the steptool only can get bigger in diameter and that limits me , the dxf loading is a nice thing since all drawings comes in dwg or dxf files , so its just to cut out you profile from the drawing and load it into P32 and your
    almost done.

    on the other hand in P4 you can gash the inside rake angle on the differnt steps so you dont get negative rake angle on the smaller steps in diameter, but there is for sure more nice things in P4 that i dont know about .

    if you have any problems just tell me , and i would do the same.

    I think all of our Walters are in the 500 series. We have the mimi, powers and loader.
    I sure hope they make the sofware more user friendly.

    I have a few questions about pkg #1. I've been running this package mostly the past several weeks. When hired in the took me back and said here it is... make it run.

    Have been running a lot of 3 and 4 fluted corner radius ( anywhere from .009 radius +/- .002 to .050 radius +/- .002) the machine will hold this once its dialed in. But whatg is the best way to adjust for the misblends on the diameter and ends? (tangent points of the radius)

    We have two of them in the shop, power 500 and vision. We also have toolcheck. Not my favorite machines around, bit of a PITA to calibrate, and fix when they break. I suggest making a hard drive clone, and replacing CRT monitor for some generic LCD on power. I might have schematics for attachiing MPG somewhere if anyone cares, always wanted to do it, just never had time. Also if you're using NT4, update to SP6, and newest walter software. They finally fixed that silly network set up they had going there.

    We also have about 40 Rollomatics, if anyone wants to talk about them. We grind carbide only.

    Mill cutters etc on the Helitronic

    I am trying to grind a 6 tooth solid carbide t slot cutter, 3 teeth right hand cut with 5 degrees right hand axial flute and 3 teeth right hand cut with 5 degrees left hand axial flute. Cutter is .297 wide with .020 radius on front and back of each tooth.The front and back face of cutter has 1.5 degrees dish with 2 degrees side clearence. Can this be ground completely in p5? (first time using p5)
    Right now I am piecing it together with p4 , p6 and p32 wich seems to be some what of a hassle but it will work for this time around.

    THE RACK ANGLE DEPTH DEPEND ON TOOL DIAMETER AND R IN WHEEL
    AND TYPE OF TOOL.

    IT IS BETWEEN 0.1 MM TO 0.25 MM.
