  1. Thanks for the reply's I have one more question, How do you Calibrate the presetter arm?
  2. Hello gentlemen, I was woundering if any of the experienced Haas lathe users could answer a couple of questions: 1.When using the touch probe,and touching off a drill, do you just Key in the X offset of some neg number to get it to center line? Can you sweep the ID tool holder in and calc that position as X0 in the G54? Will it screw up the presetter?(that way if you want it to go to center, you leave the X offset 0) 2.Is there a position you can set where the tool always rapids to for indexing, like a G30 in Fanuc? Thanks for everybody's time!
  3. Emuge taps will do the same thing
  4. Right Click in the operation Manager
  5. So these are seperate programs for the upper and lower turret correct?
  6. I believe you can if you rapid the Z out in front of the part, then cancel.Been doing it for years
  7. So if I had a old hasp, and running Ver 9, how could I set a USB port to use the old 24 pin hasp?
  8. Change at point,change the X dim of an endpoint in a tool path without changing geometry.
  9. Been running it for as long as X2 has been released, no problems at all
  10. You I did a search, and nothing came up. Thanks for the info John
  11. Is there a current hasp driver for Ver 9.1 to work with vista? I have read in this forum and other forums about vista.(has not beed very good) Thanks in advance
  12. Hello everyone, I did a search on set-up sheets for lathe work(did not return any results) I was woundering what everybody uses or prefers? Thanks in advance
  13. Does the machine have a canned cycle for this type of movement you desire?
  14. Could anybody please Share a sample G-code program for a Haas Lathe.Nothing special, just how the program starts, How tool changes start, How tool changes end, and program ending. By the way, does anybody use G30 for index positions on these machines? Is it easy to set? Thanks in advance
  15. There is "Tool angle" box on the parameter page. I believe it will tilt the tool for you.
  16. Depends where the post picks up the polar with the comp. My post I can use the lead in and lead out function without constructing any geometry.
  17. Hey everybody, I have a question for all. Can you make solid drill see the top of stock incrementally? Meaning if the there are shevles at different heights(Z levels),can you make it rapid incrementally from there.When you detect solid features in the solid drill toolpath it see's the start point and end point.If I set top of stock to incr, and set rapid position .1 incr it uses the bottom of the hole for the top of stock.
  18. I think he wants to touch off his tools from the top of the part
  19. Hello all,I was wounder how you set the default perecent of matl cuttimg speed, and percent matl per tooth so it comes in at a 100% from the standard tool libiary parameter on a tool that comes in from the standard
  20. 1. Scrub with ball nose: Multisurf 5 axis, use 4 axis output 2. Ground form tool: use a Contour toolpath, rotary-axis substitution-depth of cuts. I would say start there with seeing the whole model, I cannot tell what the end condition is of the thread
  21. What Ver of Windows are you using? May need updated drivers for the hasp driver
