I sometimes spray parts down with WD-40 or M1 before and after EDMing.

The advantage is no slug to worry about. I use it for small die cavities where the slug can be a pain.

On my FX10K, I can't sent a file while the machine is cutting. I was told that it was caused from electrical interference.

If your programmers are already using MC mill or lathe, the change over MC wire would be easy.

I'll give it a try Monday and let you know how I make out. Thanks to all!

I’m thinking about trying something off the wall. I have several parts that need drilled, reamed then a small keyway put in the ID. I’m considering roughing the keyway with a small drill before I drill out the ID,. After reaming, running a homemade broach in the spindle to finish keyway. I have choice of 2 VMCs to use, neither one can find a way to program a spindle orientate and lock. Machines are a Cinci. With a Fanuc 18i and a Bridgeport with a Heindenhain TNC370. Any ideas?? Maybe there’s a better approach??

The man tried to shut me down a few years back, I gave him a list of jams this forum got out of. Then pouted a couple weeks..... still online today!!

count me in!!

I ofter ream small holes in aluminium. Most of the time for 1/8 dowel pin. Nothing ticks me off more than a reamer cutting big. Do you use floating chucks when reaming? Do have any recommendations speeds & feed, predrill sizes.
-
check your job setup It could be speed and feeds from material or use step, peck, coolant maybe assign tool numbers seqentially.
-
in your ops manager make sure all operations are checked, right click,options,change NCI des., save. This will put all operation together.

i just got mine!

The next time you have a Zippo in your hand, take a look at all the components that go into the lighter. Most the the parts are stamped or drawn.

Haven't got mine yet, the calendars must be a beta version, released to a few chosen testers.
-
The same thing has been happening to me for about a year now. I've played with some setting but I can't figure it out.
-
I know there are several different ways to have your programs numbered. I'm just curious to what methods you all are using.
-
I've heard that they are working on something simular to "detect flat" but would be for vertical walls, this would a handy setting.

Just down the street. They did the taping at our visitor center. That was some good free publicity!

I can't get it to load. I run the setup exe. then run the chook "mr0904_check" to verify if its loaded. It says its not loaded????? I tried reloading several time... no luck.

I have a small Mitsu. FX10k. Love it! MC machinery has good tech and service support.
-
I post a program to my hard drive, then open it in Cimco edit making sure everything correct. I then save it to the card. Sometimes when I get out the machine the file's not on the card. So I go back to my PC and it has an alarm about file not saved to removable disc. Whats happening? Am I pulling the card too quick? Do I need to close Cimco before pulling card?
-
Can you jump ahead to different N blocks while running off the card?
