Hi Supercar.

You can use F no problem.Just using feed per pitch.Here in sample for 3/8-16 thread.

N4 G0 G90 G54 X0. Y0. S160 M3

N5 G43 H1 Z3. M8

N6 G98 G84 Z-.5 R.2 F.0625

N7 G80

That is give You Feed=10 in per min.We use all the time.My shop have 2 of them.(Make sure you have feed per pitch other wise you will crash big time).If you need help feel free to email me.

Hi JDowe Please.My email is [email protected].

Thanks very much.

Yes we had full mill level 3

Plaese give me idea how to machine this part.We have Hass machine with 4th axis.I put file in to Ftp in v9 folder name Mg rotor.

Thanks very much.

Thanks for quick replied Bro.

Hello all thread mill experts.

Please give me a hand.Let say if I need 1.000" full thread of.625-18NF.How much actual depth I should put in thread mill parameter to get right on 1.000" full thread.(I set up my tool length at tip of the cutter)

Thanks a lot.

You are welcom.

Hi Jim.We have 2 Akira here,I Just used regular G84 for rigid tap.But the feed calculated by pitch instead by revolution then.(Ex: 1/4 -20 tap

G98 G84 Z-.75 R.2 F.05).Another thing is this control is not to good,be careful with the edit mode when you want to edit your program,if made mistake you can not press cancell.It will enter what you put on (not like Fanuc or Hass..)instead cancelled them,or If lenght of the line longger than screen limited,it will jump down from another line without EOB. By the way what is the size of machine?

Thanks a lot for the quick reply Bro.

The problem I have here is I have the surface part file more than 100 surfaces.Then it take me long way to go.My customer said He has one guy give him the wire frames from the surfaces they all by lines and arcs.That guy says is use Mastercam to create them.I wiil ask for that file to see how it look.

Hi all.

I got the problem with create the curves on surfaces part.But my custumer wanted them by lines and arts only no splines!The part I got is a bundle of surfaces (complex surfaces).Please any body can give me a hint.I'm in V9 now

Thanks in advance.

I've been running wire with multi blocks setup.To get G54,G55 etc..On misc. Value you have to put 5,6,7..(Not 2,3,4..).Then you will get G54,G55..
