Isolate tool in Mori Seiki

[Carl Vallance]

How do I isolate a tool in the tool carosel on a Mori so that no tool can be put next to it.

[Carl Vallance]

Finaly figured it out. The book is hard reading but it's in there.

Enlighten us.

 

I looked but didn't see anything

On the tool registration page on the control instead of calling a tool number say 15 you call it 9015 then in your program call T9015 M6 and it will always isolate that tool from all others. Any tool number from 0001 to 0999 is a small dia tool, any tool number from 1000 to 8999 is a medium dia tool and any tool number from 9000 to 9999 is a large dia tool. The book is real vague on all this but after you read it about 50 times it starts to make sense.

Thanks

 

Thank Mr Mori's guys for vagueness

9000 tools will also toolchange slower. I believe 7000 will keep either side of the pocket open but will change at normal speed. Might want to double check that though. It's been a few years...

I want a Mori.

Somebody send me money...

CNC Apps Guy,

Once again the book is S**T. Not sure about what you say. When I get a chance I'll try it at the Machine and see what happens.

 

Dragracer1951,

The check is in the mail.

[Thee Dragracer1951]

Reallyu, I want a bigger shop to put one in.

I love mori's. used to work with a mv45/40 with a Yasnac MX2. Random toolchanger -swell. On this machine you needed to input tool diameters in the setup page so the control would know what tools not to put next to each other. Large, small, large small...etc. used to chuck large tools right out of the pots and out into the shop floor. manual toolchange is another option.
