This is one of the charts i was using. When i use the minor from this chart, mastercam tells me "less than 1 thread will be cut with the current thread lead".
My lead is.07874, what am i missing?
I am looking for some info for a 50 X 2 external thread. Oddball B.S.......
Ive found a few charts and they are all different. Master cam doesn't have that thread in the lathe file. Can someone please tell me what the minor diameter is?
Hi guys,
Im having trouble with this thing. (Most likely it's operator error) i have a good post that i used for years, I have copied and pasted into the users, public, shared mastercam, CNC_MACHINES file but i keep getting a warning...."control definition file for machine not found. Default control settings will be loaded."
Any ideas?
We had mori out here to fix a problem. As usual we were left with another problem. Does anyone know how to get out of parameter set mode on a mori NVX5080? The control is mitsubishi NV502JL0045.
ANY help would be appreciated. Thanks guys....
I have post fot it already. X20.Z20.
Wonder where i got that? LOL
And i did a few programs on that entegrex. Just never could pull off that crazy chamfer thing you were doing.
I got the boss looking at the sweet thing. https://www.okuma.com/lb4000-ex-ii
Im an Okuma guy thru and thru. I've been running them for over 20 years and programming them for 6 or 7 years. Crazy millman can attest to that. I really hope he pulls the trigger on it. Big bore spindle 40 HP motor. BRING IT!!!!
We are an all mori shop. We have had nothing but trouble with the service dpt. My boss was looking at NLX 3000 but wasn't sure about the control. Im trying to steer him in the Okuma direction. I've got him looking at LB series machines right now. I hope we go that direction. I have more than 20 years experience with OSP controls and love them. Okuma LB25 would be a good fit for the work we do.
Thanks for the feedback guys.
Hi guys,
We are looking at getting a new lathe as the work load is getting pretty deep.
Does anybody have a Mori Seiki NLX 3000 lathe with a Celos control? Give me some pros and cons
if you can. Please and thank you.
Hi guys.
Is there a way to stop the spindle manually in the middle of the program to clear chips? I've done it with Okumas, but I don't know how to do it ona mori. Thanks
