Tapping problem?


Recommended Posts

Hello, 

Before i everyting worked fine but today i got a problem when i tapping a hole for example i need to tap M4 hole into -10 i set feed rate 105 and spindle speed 150 . The spindle goes clokwise into -10 and then starts spining diferent way but feed rate changes and dont lock to 105spining speed  and it should retract but it stays in same position -10 but after one minute feed rate changes to 105 and normaly starts to retract.

 

Its dificult to explain maybe some one will understand the problem

Did you program a dwell in the program? Got some code to share? Have you compare past working code with your current code and is there any difference?

I solved the problem  i have a problem with peck drill as well , when i set peck drill for example  for 5 to retract it doesn't listen to what i write it always goes - 15 then retract then again -15. So i tried custom drill in drilling options and  i set thous settings and there was a dwell and there was a setting that ''set drilling settings for drilling parameters'' . And after that my taping stopped working. It was going down and had a little pause and then was going up and the problem was that dwell setting.

 

Now i need to solve peck drill problem somehow maybe tomorrow i will try to make that custom drill hole settings. Sorry for my bad English maybe you will get it

I forgot to mention that the code was same from before

 

Okay that is odd. Maybe an encoder is going out on the machine. I have had that happen where the spindle encoder was going bad and got some weird things going on with the tapping cycles. Once it was replaced all was good and seen this on a 3 month to a 20 year old machine.
