Okuma can do that. Haas, probably never.(nuts)
A shop down the street from us does this 24-7. I will see if I can find out how they do it. Who is your Mori rep? Ellison?
It was the centurygothic font. I think Win 7 doesn't support the font. Go figure.
Is anyone having problems with PDF's from Solidworks that says "Can't find/create font "CenturyGothic". I don't think it is Solidworks. The PDf came from a Solidworks drawing.
I am using a...
Buying Mori's could do that! I checked the web site and it is not listing a new issue either. I figured that with IMTS new info would be out all over the place. The y axis ST-20 is not listed on...
Yep, that's the one. Haas seems to be way behind on issues. I guess there is no good news for anyone to report these days.
Has anyone received a new issue of the CNC magazine?
I have a VF-5/50 with 1000 psi TSC. A straight flute holder will work, but.... That depends on the depth , diameter and material. I find that when I use a larger insert size for the series of...
All you have to do is copy the threading cycle, change the Z length, slow your RPMs down, and make sure M24 is active. I like to use a groove/turn tool that is at least as wide as the base of the...
Apps,
All I have is programs for Mori NL's. Will that help any? Will the Y axis machine be a SS/ST derivative? Will the VQC or the Intuitive programming handle basic code creation?
Hey Apps,
Does this mean that a Y axis lathe is back on the drawing board?
Does anyone have or know where to get training manuals and such for 2010? I installed 2010 yesterday and I can't believe how crappy the "getting Started" manual is. For $30000.00 you would think...
Well, I decided to get the HP workstation instead of trying my luck with a "entertainment" HP. I dug into the Inventor specs and I eventually found where it said at least a 512mb video card was...
It will be my luck that the HP from Best Buy won't work for me and it will end up costing $4000.00 all together because I will still have to buy the workstation. I need the laptop to run Inventor...
Would any one know of or use a laptop with a higher end Nvidia video card rather than a work station rated card? I do not have to do large assemblies or anything like that. Mostly assemblies are 20...
I have a VF-5/50 and I tap quite a bit. I use a tension and compression holder for most of the larger size taps. I use Emuge taps more than most. They are more expensive but when you look at the...
I have had the same problem. I have figured out that if you use a canned cycle, it will do a chip break and retract to Z.1 only after it travels a certain amount. I haven't tried all that many...
As far as changing RPM's, you are supposed to be able to change rpm's if the thread start is in increments of the thread pitch. I have done this quite a bit on the TL-2 and a few times on the SL-30....
Take a look the z positions and rpms. That is about all it takes to do a thread clip for and ID or OD thread. Depending on the width of the thread and grooving tool, you may have to move the z...
I'll get you an example in the morning.
What type of thread are you cutting? 60 deg. V, Acme, stub acme?
I normally use a grooving tool that is a little wider than the width of a single thread form.
Copy your threading cycle, move...
I am flying to Chicago in the morning to go to Mori's open house thing. Anyone need any info while I am there?:banana::banana:
Mapps is not hard. I find that in order for you to do a program correctly you must really pay attention to the reference positions and origins. Your tool library must be set up correctly for...
Open the rear panel and look at the lights on the PCB board. I just replaced a Low Voltage power Supply and the PCB board on my TL-2. I don't know what alarm it was because the screen would not...
Whatcha' makin'? I want an NT bad. I probably should have opted for one instead of 2 NL's. What count tool mag did you get? Probes? How is Mastercam X4 working for you? I want to go to Mori in...
Haas Apps,
Do you have a better picture of the 24 poition turret? The data sheet does not show it well.
Haas Apps,
May I ask the purpose of the SS-30 and ST-30? Are these machines going to replace the SL-30 platform or just a higher performance version in the 3" bar range? I was hoping that the...
You have to include the radius of the tool you are using for cutter comp. The first part I made was a special key made from barstock. Everything was pretty until the final pass and when I opened...
Another NL-2500SY. I want an NT4250, but........
So far no problems at all. Runs like the day it was installed. I was quoted on another one this morning. Still trying to decide what to do. Great price though.
