  1. My company is in the process of decommissioning our Mori Seiki NH4000 DCG horizontal mill and we are going to put tools offsets  machine offsets and programs in our Mori Seiki  NH4000 and put them in th NH5000 . I am new to this brand of machine and could use step by step instructions on downloading Tool Offsets machine offsets and programs from the NH4000 machine to a flashdrive  and then dropping the saved information into the NH5000.

  2. I have a question when doing a Dynamic operation is there a way to start at a certain point say an existing hole or feature that is already in place or does the algorithm determine that automatically. I see there is an entry chain option so say I am bringing a .250 Dia tool in and I have a .207 Dia hole in the material  do I have to create a boundary around the hole that will accept a .25 endmill

  3. Yes we have set up sheets this would be just a step by step instruction that they could pre read to see what each tool is doing and being that I have typed it into Mastercam program and would look to save the step of having to re type it out 

     

    Here is an example of what I would create but with programs with any surfacing or Dynamic functions it would be time consuming to strip manually

  4. I am looking for a way to strip all numbers, G & M code from my program's and leave just only text between the  parenthesis  ex.  ( OP 1  )  so I can print these up and give them to Setup for help. The last place I worked had a Dos based program that did this. Is there an option in either the CIMCO or Mastercam editor that will do this ?
