Haas SL40

[Guest]

I am looking at a new machine, as listed, and wondered how the control compares to say a fanuc control post that comes with MCX. Any thoughts?

Hi

We have a Haas SL30 and another one on the way both with live tooling and bar feeders.The post needs some minor tweaking but it is real close. Mainly for the live tooling and drill cycles.

Good to know. Thanks. This one does not have live tooling, so no worrys there. =]

Don,

 

Are you able to do "canned" drilling cycles with live tooling?

[Don S at Barefoot CNC South]

CNCGUY

Yes we can do canned drill with live tools.

Don,

 

Can you e-mail some code so I can see what I need to change in the post!!!!

 

Also, was there anything you needed to change in the control?

 

Thanks a bunch
