trying to mill out an arc on my cnc.. programming it was fine.. but when it picks up the mill bit and sends it over in front of the piece and the machine shuts down.....error message 19 tool released in rotation.

Any suggestions??

[nonnsgranite]

nevermind.. we figured it out.. bad toolholder... wasnt letting tool rotate.
had to call a friend of mine from pennsylvania... he knows intermacs like the back of his hand...

[chopshop]

about that intermac problem. what was wrong with the tool holder?....not letting the machine orient?.....hmmm.....hey.....where can i find a list of the g-m codes the cad / cam system on our intermac system uses?.

how do you guys set up tools? ive seen a long procedure that the operator in our shop does.....seems not very time efficient.

do you use your machine to cut sink holes also?.
do you use the machine to drill the threaded insert holes for holding sinks in place?

[nonnsgranite]

yes we drill the sink holes but our fabricators use a makita to cut for holding the sinks in place.. im not sure where you can get the codes for that...hmnm might have to call agm on that one.. if u want i have a contact person's number and email and he is great.. knows alot of stuff.. if you call AGM ask to be directed towards Fred Watson and say that nonn's flooring recommended you.

as far as setting up tools im not sure what your asking to be honest.. i set up a 1/4 bevel set the other day. i mean it took a few hours but i used standard recomended speeds and actually cut a test piece and gradually worked the height and proper positioning by eye and letting the tools dictate.
i know its alot easier then what AGM tries to get you to do


btw the problem with the tool holder is that when they go bad, or they are dropped there is a sensor in the top of the tool holder that is recognized by the spindle... so as it picked it up from the rack as soon as the rack closed it shuts the machine off knowing that there is a problem detected by the spindle... make sense? all we did was change the toolholder and tada!\

anything else i can help u with im usually logged in all the time
hope i can help.. love the intermac!

Chris,

I was wondering if you could help me. A client of mine is looking for a solid Intermac Set-Up/Operator. They are willing to relocate.
Solid pay and benefits. Would you know of anyone? I do pay a decent referral fee of $400.00 paid in 60days of candidate's start date. ANY help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Best regards,

Peter Green

You have a bad sensor (751). I have three spindle sensors available for sale @ $75 each which would solve the current problem you have. If you use your Intermac heavily I'd suggest you stock up on those sensor as they go bad from time to time and you know that when the machine is down it means nothing but lost profit.
