Yes, there was; I removed the offset and retried to "measure". I got the exact same result.

Hi gang.
Having a problem on a Daewoo lathe w/ 18i control. When the measure button is used it is not outputting what one would expect. Example---
Z0 > measure = value entered in offset is "0"
Z0.100 > measure = -.100
Z-.100 > measure = .100
ant thoughts on how to correct this little PITA of a problem?
Thanks in advance.

ostie,
Thanks, that was what I was looking for.

Hi,
I hope somebody has an idea of what this material is, internet searches have not yielded any favorable results.
This is a military grade material;
EN10149-2
Grade - S700MC
Any information on or about this material would be great.
Thanks in advance!

Larry,
First off, I feel your pain. I have 3 of the 0M controllers. Depending on what you would like to do there are 2 options.
A) Positive tool lengths:
Pick an object in the machine (I use the vise fixture or what ever my work holding device is) bring the spindle face down and touch off a 3" block on that object. Goto the position page write down the Z axis machine coordinate (DO NOT MOVE 3" BLOCK). Load tool in spindle, touch the tool off the same 3" block. Position screen, machine Z axis position and subtract the two numbers. (I know more math) This will give you a positive tool length.
Negative tool length:
Sounds like you are doing this method above..... Bring tool down to programmed Z zero touch off and input the Z axis machine value into your tool register.
Option B is definitely the faster of the two and there is no math involved; however if you are using multiple workshifts this can get you in trouble if you are not careful.
I am currently looking at purchasing a tool tightening block, using method A above get a known tool length and modify the block so it can be used on a surface plate with a height stand to measure tools.
Sorry I have know magic (measure) button or a (Z input c.) answer for you. I can say again I feel your pain, I absolutely despise these controllers as far as ease of use goes.
"M6 (insert) T1 (eob)" what a pain in the arse.
Hope that helps a bit.

Ahh the wonderful X+ chook, thank you

I am sure this is another one of those answers that if it had teeth.....
I would like to renumber the ops
Just to make it a little cleaner in the file.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance

Thanks guys that did the trick.

Is there a way that I can transfer my custom toolbar from one pc to another?
Thanks in advance.

I use the G95 as chris has mention as my perfered method, ****Note**** do not forget to change back to G94..... I did once , can you say PUNCH PRESS, spot drill running 1200rpm and 6ipr was kinda fun to watch.

+1000000 on the In-House post (thanks Brett).
Also the post is no longer supported for V9, real good reason to make the leap to X; you will never look back once you have had some seat time and get acclimated.

Ok guys and gals, thru spindle coolant.
High pressure vs. Standard
What are most of you using, pros cons ect.
The powers that be are asking for more data on this as we are looking to purchase some new equipment.
Thanks in advance.

After moving your chain, goto the solids menu (TAB in the ops manager). Your solid will be "dirty" right click on the dirty solid and regen.

I have buried our Itegrex 200, and 300... 1.25 DOC by .625 with a 3/4" end mill tilted a 87°. Not sure what the load was but the machined handles it all day every day for over a year now, and to boot we run to gauge diameters to +/- .0007 on the same parts. Very rugged, very reliable. I will have to agree with Ron on being warmed up though.

Same here.. entered -.0015 and cut under size in backplot and posted code.

This is what I am getting??

Still awaiting they eval of SW, the I.S. team is looking at early next year???? When ever that is... Thanks for all the responses.

+1000 Ron, I hear ya on that one.

Thanks Guys

Probably going to be so simple that I will feel like a fool, but here goes. In V9 I could screen ~> change levels ~> copy. In X2 I am finding myself having to ctrl + a ~> XFORM point to point (origin to origin) copy ~> all ~> XFORM Result ~> F4 ~> new level. Please tell me I am working WAY to hard and that there is a simple solution for this.
Thanks in advance

I had no problems with the switch.

Colin, thanks that did exactly what I was hoping to see.
Mig, This code is for an Integrex it does look a tad scary, but it is correct. R value is handled diferently with the integrex (R rapid feed-point posistion incremental value from initial point)

No, I'm talking about the tool offsets. Say I turn a piece of material to 1.00" go in to the geometry page to the tools number an type (X 1.) measure it give me a negative 1. If I use X (INP. C) then -1. (+INPUT) it will give me the disired result. It just the "long" way around IMHO. Hope that helps clear it up; sorry for not being a bit more detailed. I wish I was standing in front of an elite
