set-up sheets

I like to list what operation is being done,

what tools are involved ie: tool mfg and part # and insert mfg and part #. I also list a very important item in our shop: max tool depth. I type this up in castillo text editor along with a few notes about when to check what and where etc. I also include a drawing of the project mounted on the machine table showing vise and clamp locations etc. It all depends. Sometimes our guys are overwhelmed by too much "data" such as found on a certain cad/cam system's setup sheet

Mario;

I'll send you something when I get back to work on monday.

 

What I did was draw a bunch of nuts, bolts, and clamps that our guys use around the shop. I save these in a folder called "hardware" and merge them into the geometry. Carr-Lane has a cd filled with this stuff that you can import into your system. Translate/transform/mirror etc. as needed.

 

For the machine table I looked at the specs in a Haas owner's manual. Did the same thing for our rotary table also.

 

Looks good, works good, and helps the operators get the concept of what I doing with their machines.
