Hi everybody,
Well, I tried to get information on variable lead threading using Mazatrol. I received no answers so I figure it can't be done. I also called Mazak application support and he had never heard of it being done with Mazatrol but couldn't rule it out. He suggested EIA (which we have as an option but have never used). Now I'm fairly new to Mazak but I've programmed for years on Okuma, Nakamura, and Star lathes in previous jobs. My experience with those (all using G codes only) says that our Mazak is going to want a specific layout. I'm talking about the start of the program, calling up tools, and ending the program. I can figure out the variable thread but I really don't want to crash the machine by leaving something out that it wanted.
Long story just to ask:
Can somebody post a sample EIA program for a Nexus 100 lathe with a 640T controller?
Thanks
Chris

why u need EIA program for mazak,for me mazatrol program is the best program for turning
all shape can make in mazatrol & mazatrol is very simple & easy
so i think EIA program not required

[guru]

Mazak EIA is verymuch same as Fanuc format,
if you still need sample of the EIA here it is
(Program using tool#6)

Thank you for your replys. I got a sample program from Turkay Geyik two weeks ago and it gave me the confidence to see that it wasn't any different from the basic format I was used to. Transfering it by floppy took a while to figure out what it needed.

Mazman- I needed it for the variable lead thread. Do you have a way to do it in Mazatrol (which I like as well)? I did run the variable lead thread in EIA and it worked. Or at least it didn't alarm- I was doing it to verify that we could do it if needed but didn't turn actual metal. We'll see if it's needed later.

Thanks guru for posting the sample.

hi i have 6+ years experiance in mazak so you can ask me i will ready to explain what you need.

[mazak200m]

i need an eia sample program for a mazak 200m with c axis

[mazak200m]

do you have a sample code were you use cutter comp for a live tool on a Mazak lathe

I don't but maybe someone who answered my post will. Good luck.
