How can I reduce the plunge rate for each waterline in X9. When I choose a certain plunge feed MC ignores it most of the time. Only when the tool is going to reposition to another location do I get my reduced plunge feed. If there is no reposition the plunge feed is unchanged from the XY feed and the tool fires down to the next level.

I have my machines DNCed with RS232 and fiber optic links because TIG welding aluminum(high freq) in our shop was giving wired RS232 problems. I'll call Cimco and see what they say. Thanks to all you guys.
-
I wasn't looking for a hard quote. There must be someone who has Cimco for 4 or 5 CNC's, no?
-
Thanks for the non-answer.

How much is Cimco DNC for 4 CNC's? Did I see $35k or $35000???
-
Thanks, Thad! I sent you the PM.

Can we get a copy?

I would hope that it allows saving the current probed point. In a Fagor control you manipulate the probe to the touch point and then you issue a Nxxxx G76 XYZ command. Those coordinates are then written to a predefined file block by block each on it’s own line.

I don’t know too much about it other than I would like to digitize surfaces with the Fadal. Maybe carryinwood could enlighten us as to what was/is available.

I could use it too. Just bought an old Fadal.

Ok, thanks for your input. What does SpaceClaim do? I've heard good reports about it on editing surfaces, etc. -

No data like that is available. All we have is the castings, all different sizes and shapes! -

Thanks for the math lesson but you still didn't answer my question. First of all, I'm a one man band and my cnc's are all running while I'm writing programs, etc. The question was, specifically now, what equipment and software would I need to do this? Am I looking to find the most expensive route to get this done? No! I didn't say I don't have any wherewithal just not the scratch that Lockheed-Martin has. -

I'm doing it often and I'm always editing and changing the toolpath. My process is somewhat proprietary so I wouldn't want stuff outside my shop.
