I checked out the mdtooling.com and emailed them. The reply: Unfortunately, we do not carry tooling for the Mori CL series. Any other sources?
-
Can anyone tell me a good source to buy tooling for this lathe? I'm looking for the tool holders that mount to the indexer.
-
When I do this. I simply hit delete/all/xform group. The result is still there and the orginal is deleted.
-
That did it. Thanks
-
I turned the V7 colors chook on in Mastercam X MR2. How do I turn this back off?
-
Same tool and same tool path. It would appear to be some kind of setting in the Lathe itself to me but as I said before this is the first time I've done any cnc lathe work so I know nothing cnc lathes.
-
Its in the MC9 folder named Lathe_Test.
-
The code shows everything right. I now have 3 steps in the part: .5 ; 1.0 ; 1.5 diam. The part finishes at .780 ; 1.032; 1.280 I'm new to this lathe stuff. It appears to be some kind of setting or something in the lathe(It is a Mori Seiki CL2000)

I'm using the MPLFAN pst. When Cutting a round piece of stock that should finish at 1" Diam. and shoulder down to 1/2" diam. the finish dimensions of the stock is coming out to be 1.032 on the large diameter and .780 on the smaller diam? Is something in the post causing this. It verifies correctly in the backplot on mastercam 9.1

Which default post is the best one to start with on a Mori Seiki CL2000? We are using Mastercam X Mill 3 with lathe. The Lathe is a 2 axis In and out is x and cross travel is Z. Thanks,
-
Thanks for the advice. I did just copy the whole mcam 9 , x , x mr2 folders. Better safe than sorry. I have been running haas and milltronics machines vertical mills. The new job will be a Haas vertical, a Matsuri Horizontal, and a Mori Seiki Lathe. I've never had the chance to work on horizontal cnc's or cnc lathes so it should be interesting.

Today will be my last day of work at my current place of employment. What all files do I need to save out of the mcam folder to be able to set up my new computer at my new place of employment? Currently using mcamX mr2. Thanks, Craig

If anyone is interested please email resumes to me. Thanks, Craig

We use the Walter series F2330 in a 1 1/4" Diameter .059 DOC > 200 IPM > 1315 RPM in P20 and can cut for 3 or 4 hours before changing inserts. -
I use to do it all in Mastercam. Now I use Solidworks for design, much faster, and programming in Mastercam.

While in the graphics screen press F4 and it will show your gcode on the screen. Press the start button and when it alarms out the highlighted line will be your problem. Look at the code your y move is likely to big for the machine.

Thanks for the help.

Where is the modify convert to arcs function in X? Thanks
-
I will install it as soon as I get it
-
2 vertical mills 1 Haas; 1 milltronics. Also do part design, mold design quoting etc.

The shank tolerance is what I was wondering about. I checked a osg High performance against an osg 404 series and found the High performance to be right on .1250 and the cheaper endmill to be .1248. Thanks for the help

We recently bought some heat shrink tooling from OSG. They suggest only using tools out of there High Technology catalog(more expensive). Do any of you that are using heat shrink tooling still use the cheaper tooling in it and if so are you having any problems with it.

We use the Walter Xtra tec shoulder mill 1 1/4" diam. and the Walter Xtra tec face mill in 1 1/4" . Both are the Type that screw into a cat 40 adapter. The shoulder mills give an extremely good finish on both the face and sides. We have completely eliminated surface grinding on a lot of our mold inserts. The Face mill is very impressive 200 inches/minute .059 deep 1680rpm in p20

Our osg vendor said that osg was going up 20% on there carbide.
