    Custom tool...... And grooving is not for the faint of heart. Send the file over and I'll take a crack at it. If you NEED to get the job done NOW, I suggest telling your operator "that's just how it is", shift the tool offset the width of the insert and run it. If you have the time I'll PM you my work email.

    Lathe issue

    K2csq7 replied to Jmick's topic in Industrial Forum

    Hi Jmick, I replied to your post on the other forum.... PM me if you'd like to dig deeper. Or post whatcha got here... or there... it's up to you. Cathedral, please send the MT "teet" thing into QC to my attention. (I didn't know you were an MT user...)

    run verify (or simulation in MT) and dock all windows. See if the problem persists after that. I think I saw this when I had some stuff undocked in simulation (or verify).....
  7. K2csq7
    are you guys that see those running MT?

    Your screen shots show a full radius insert... with the rad set to .01 Is your tool actually a .02 wide full radius? Or is it an insert that is 3/32" wide and has (2) 0.01" rads? P.S. HI RAY!

    That sounds good.... Is it in line with what robbjack reccommends? Keep an eye on your mill spindle load and don't be afraid to up the feedrate override.

    I use dynamic whenever possible. Make sure you hold that tool tight!

    Leave the spline as a spline and tighten the cut tolerance in your op. When creating the ellipse you have a choice on the ribbon bar to use arcs/lines instead of splines... You can also use edit simplify to get lines & arcs.

    Did you try the stock flip operation?

    Send the file over Mr. Murlin.

    When a salesman blatantly lies to your face about something so grossly obvious, it's time to get a new salesman.... what else is he lying about? You are right next door to a Mazak tech center.... being close like that has some SERIOUS advantages......

    Settings Machine def manager Axis combo (looks like a gnomon at the top of the window) Click the axis combo you want and hit "home position"

    If you can post the file here we may be able to take a look....

    There are certainly newer toolpaths, but you could break it up into multiple ops and use containment boundaries to focus on one area at a time.

    Not to disagree at all, every situation is different... I have had a completely opposite situation with Nitronic... Milling 1 inch off the face was taking about 8 hrs... Turning did it in about 3. The facing probably would have gone better on a more rigid setup vs. the old horizontal I was using (with 5' tall angle irons)! It's all about the setup.

    WG300 .375 button 600SFM .004"/rev CONSTANTLY vary the DOC..... As Ron said, it comes with the territory, but I was able to manage chips during large dia. roughing of superalloys.
