O/T - Imagine ...

[CAM-mando]

Its been one of those weeks, but all is well. Coming home I heard John Lennon singing "Imagine" Now Im all for brotherhood of man and all that stuff, but my head was still at work so Im thinking more like:

 

Imagine ...

 

-There's no Inspector.

-Customers working to the forecast.

-Fanuc and Hitachi manuals written in real english (or a bablefish translator for Japanglish).

-10 more horse power, 5000 more RPM and another inch of z travel.

 

anybody else ?

... all the Machine tool builders used the same pull stud/retention knob...

 

... A GUI Post builder from Mastercam...

 

... Bringing in the Solid History from ANY CAD system...

 

... A desk sized mold cavity with thousands of tiny surfaces with a .001" stepover processed in 2 seconds...

 

I could go on and on...

[Mick]

James,

 

I certainly agree with the last one....I could read several books whilst processing some of the cavities I've dealt with lately

 

Oh, and Z travel isn't normally the problem with me...its x..:/

 

Hehe

imagine:

 

your boss saying nice job for once, instead of what happened to this detail

 

the operater saying hey that program ran really good,instead of hey what's wrong with this program

motty

Imagine the Detroit Tigers win a game......

The engeneers making a design change before the cavities are finished being cut.More machines with 60" x axis travel.NO MORE FADELS.A decent 4axis deckel dialog 11 post.

....more time

[Nominal]

Operators that check thier parts once in a while.

The same control on every machine.

Every part made out of aluminum with no inside corners smaller than 1/4" radius, no tapped holes smaller than 1/4-20, and every hole goes thru.

No surface finish better than 125. I could go on forever.

.....No cholesterol in prime rib

 

.....Fill in the blank tolerances

 

.....No impaired driving after a 12 pack

 

.....No cutter deflection

 

.....No sand traps

 

.....No computer crashes

 

.....No lower back pain

 

.....No lack of parking spaces

 

.....No prostate exams

Amen to that!

 

- Mills and lathes from the same builder using the same control; or at least something that acts like it was made by the same company

 

- Not moving button / switch locations from one generation control to the next for no apparent reason

 

- Operators that understand that a rapid move with a 2" Distance To Go right in front of the part is BAD

 

- Running everything at 1500SFM

 

- $10 carbide endmills

 

it does, indeed, go on forever

That is the most perfect analogy that I have EVER read. You should put that into your sig:

 

"Coming home to an empty house is like walking into a classroom and seeing a film projector set up"

 

Beautiful!

If the gov gave every american 1 million dollars

each, considering they found 600 million and there is roughly 300 miilion americans then they could use they other half for war funding.

 

And the cost of living drops 25%.

The US Govt is going to INCREASE it's defense budget by MORE than the combined total of ALL THREE of the next highest countries. The TOTAL budget will be MORE than ALL OTHER COUNTRIES combined. (That's like 91 countries..)

 

Kind of sad when you consider many of us make our living off of war products...

You must be a politician cause your math is definately f*$*ed up. If there's 600 million to divide amongst 300 million people thats 2 bucks each.

Oh yea can i get voted in now, city council looks good.
