hello all. I started new job today, and will be programming this machine. We have AE coming out in a couple weeks to help get me going on how to operate. I have been reviewing existing programs (catia) and noted that work part origin is not referenced to center of rotation as you would on a trunion style machine. Is this machine not considered a trunion where I have to know exact position of part to machine c/line?

Unfortunately the tool path editor is greyed out on this toolpath. I did a manual edit :sigh: and moved on.

Would you guys know if possible to change feedrates during a 5 axis curve toolpath.? I am cutting a long 200" swarf wall, using 5 axis curve, with varying heights and am getting deflection at the taller areas. Would like to slow tool down here. Any ideas??

Have any of you ever tried spinning a 13" long hollow tube carbide tipped gundrill @ 15k outside of hole? Robin Hood would have been impressed.

Horizontal Boring Mill with RA Head
TheePres replied to gcode's topic in Post Processor Development Forum
Gcode, Who did you deal with for post? We are in need of a right angle head post for our 5 axis SNK A,C head that would support working at tilted planes. -

Chm files will download blocked. Right click on file and I believe under "permission" you can unblock it. -
Downloading Now, Thank You Sir.

Our installation was done thru the web download file, and sample files were not included along with this. Was hoping someone here had accsses to sample files and could share with me 2 files. i am looking for sample on multiaxis parallel to surface and parallel to multiple curves. Oh, these would be required for X6 Thanks in advance.

HITCO in harbor city CA has the capabilities you require. Send me PM if you would like contact info. -
Ron. With all the $$$ your customer will be making he could get some cheap taiwan 50 taper machines then go with some 2" hanita wavecutters. He'll have to order bigger bins for all them chips you'll be making.

IGES will export wireframe geometry; but would need to be unblanked/unhide prior to exporting.

Heavy Metal, I had a situation such as yours where i need the center curve for some funky geometry. The solution was to go to native model, in this case Catia, and save the geomtry used to create model out as IGES. Is this an option you may have?

Boring Head Reccomendations
TheePres replied to TheePres's topic in Machining, Tools, Cutting & Probing
Thanks for suggestions, Now i am also looking at the Iscar Reamers. -
Starting a new project that requires use of adjustable boring heads in the .750-1.500" range. This will be short production runs of say 20-30 pcs per. Looking for advice on choice of Boring heads, I do not want to use Criterion style heads because of the skill level of our machine shop, but also do not have the budget for Komet style heads. Any Ideas of other brands that are reasonably priced.?

Will also occur if you delete or rename folder where file resides, while file is open.

This place buys whatever Enco has on sale..:'(

Do not have X7 here to view your part. Based on your description, I would try Curve 5 axis with 4th axis enabled.

Great job Gcode!!! Thank you and all other forum members that are here to offer wisdom and advice.
