  1. Just wondering if anyone has experience working on a i400 integrex, There is a coolant blockage right at the upper turret spindle, I took all the lines off and they are clear. The blockage appears to be in the spindle its self, I managed to get all the jets clear but still not working. Has anyone had this problem?
  2. We work on the waterfront right off the ocean, turned out to be bad corrosion on one of the holders that hasnt been used in a while, got it out and cleaned and oiled every holder, few taps with a ballpeen on the holder did the trick, dead blow was too soft i guess Was worried the drawbar failed, not an easy job on an integrex 400
  3. We have a tool holder stuck in our mill spindle, we actually clamped the tool in the main spindle and tried retracting in z, with out any luck. has anyone had any luck removing a stuck capto holder from an integrex?
  4. ok so if I use control, it wont matter what the tool rad is that I programmed with, it will use the tool data radius on the controller? Thanks Ron, that should simplify things for sure, now I just have to go back thru all my programs, haha
  5. Is it possible to change the tool nose radius on the controller if the operator wants to use a different insert from what I programmed, or does that have to be done in mastercam? our machines are Mazaks. I guess i forgot to say it is for a quick turn lathe, and an integrex
  6. I found my problem, I have to manually input my work offset before the c-axis locks and the and the 2 spindles sync
  7. Also I can not do a surface finish flowline on this machine, does anyone know why this is not an option?
  8. That wont really be an option for this job because of bar feeder and robot. have you had any luck getting the angles to work with the sub spindle being driven my the main?
  9. I am having problems doing multiaxis tool paths on the sub spindle, It works fine on the main, but when I try on the sub spindle it links the main spindle and attempts to sync the main spindles and seems to output the c axis moves in reverse. Am I missing something in the toolpath to not sync spindles and output U axis for the sub?
  10. part transfer uses g4, does this need to be cancelled maybe? its adding a m210 at every drill point even when not rotating c
  11. I notice this machine seems to have a wait time for basic toolpaths, if i drill 2 holes on the same plane it has a long paise between holes, how do i get rid of this?
  12. We are upgrading one of our hasps for this machine, my question is should we get the mill turn option or will we be fine with 5ax addon? We already have mill level 3 and lathe on this seat. The machine does not have a lower turret
  13. Im not sure what i did to fix it, uninstalled all software that i dont use and the message went away. I used to use a drive emulator to open iso files, thats the only emulator i can think that may have been installed.
  14. what is the cause of this problem? I didnt have any problems with 2019. I program at multiple locations, but use the same hasp and laptop at every location
  15. I will try to reinstall first, we only had this problem on one machine
  16. I just installed 2021 and am getting this message?
  17. Thats great, dont want to have to purchase 5axis just to do an undercut
  18. If you look on right view during back plot the angle is larger and you can see if it is following the surface, i dont have my computer with me so I cant look at that file
  19. That did the trick, thanks alot, got me out of a jam
  20. I dont have the 5x option but it looks good, im going to run it. thanks
  21. Flowline is crashing my computer, for a simple operation this is being very frustrating
  22. its still not following the surfaces when i backplot. it cuts the top rad fine, then just cuts a straight wall after the top rad
  23. ucut.mcam this is just the surface I am trying to machine
