do you save your work on a company server? do they back it up daily?
-
I'm pretty sure you have to export and import the toolpaths seperately, then you have to re-select all your geometry again.

Thanks guys, we recieved a new post yesterday.

Same here, never a problem.

We just got a new DMU 50(itnc 530 control ) and although I don’t have a post specifically for this machine I was wondering if I used the post for our evolution machines(itnc 530 control ) and the machine definition for our dmu 50 (siemens control) if it would work. I know for 3+2 it would be fine but not sure about 5axis motion. Any help would be appreciated.

You get more accurate cycle times from generating a set-up sheet, but I haven’t been able to get it right on yet.

Just go to settings configuration and change back to english, it will ask you if you want to scale part to english click yes. We get lots of files in metric, it's also a good idea to ask the customer for step files they are much better.

Okuma Conversational Lathe Control
overthecrossbar replied to Mjölnir's topic in Machining, Tools, Cutting & Probing
All of our lathes are Mazaks and the guys do all the programming on Mazatrol which is very easy to use. -
I started put programming on a Hurco BMC30/M and a BMC20, the Ultimax software is probably the most user friendly conversational programming I have ever seen. I also done alot of programming on Mazatrol and Heidenhain, Ultimax is easier. The machine itself is about on par with a Haas.

Thats good to know mine was set at 1 second, thanks.

Also if you have a slow tool changer and lots of tool changes that will affect your calculations.
-
For taps just go to tool in your parameters and re enter spindle speed and your feed will update automaticaly according to your pitch, but you have to change your speed (if it's 1250 make it 1251) you can always change it back if you want.

Unless you have backup enabled it's gonzo. You probably need to update Mastercam.
-
You don't have to do it on each op, just do it for each tool in the tool manager
