Re: describing a knurling tool Genos L-300
hello Terry if you are using CAS, than simply create a new tool, and define its shape how you wish.
Please be aware that many people avoid CAS because setting it up requires too much time. Even you think that you mastered it, thus your speed = +infinit, it is still slow.
There are better alternatives. So far, did you never had that feeling that something is wrong with CAS ? dont you feel like setting it up is a waste of time ? I assure you that many guys, that are not novice, are not using CAS.
Even if it takes too much time to setup, you decide if you really need CAS enabled. At the end of the day, is not the CAS who will save your day, but the monitoring functions; far as i know, monitoring is an option on Genos.
On a lathe, is enough to assign offsets to turret posts only once ( attached image - left ), and have a virtual library with a number of entries equal with turret posts ( attached image - right ); each entry of the virtual library should be assigned to the turret.
This is the setup of a static magazine.
Random magazines require frequent interventions, but things can be made easier also there. kindly !
