If you're using a STN?? (triangle) insert then there is taper on it. If you are using the STN insert, look for a L or R on the insert. You will want to use the R side for a right hand thread.

Is the insert upside down?

We just had our M08SY-II installed. We start training Tuesday. Did you get the Tsugami floor mat?

Here's what I use before firing up the laser setter programs; % O9026(M501 -- TOOL OFFSET REMOVAL PROGRAM) (PARAMETER 6086) (A = FIRST TOOL TO REMOVE, DEFAULTS TO 6) (B = LAST TOOL TO REMOVE, DEFAULTS TO 200) IF[#1EQ#0]THEN#1=6 IF[#2EQ#0]THEN#2=200 WHILE[#1LE#2]DO1 #3=10000+#1 #4=11000+#1 #5=12000+#1 #6=13000+#1 IF[#1EQ4]GOTO1 #[#3]=88.8888 #[#4]=0 #[#5]=0 #[#6]=0 N1 #1=#1+1 END1 M99 % This program will clear out the comped offsets and adds 88" to the geometry length offsets. If a tool is missed the 88.8888 will over travel the empty pocket.

This has happened to me with right angle heads. If I remember correctly the Driven Point was in the wrong position in the tool manager.

I know nothing about Haas but can you add a block number where you want to start and do a GOTO?

I don't run much 303 but my 1/2" four flute Widia is showing s6876 f183.36 (.006666 fpt) at 10% in 316.

I ended up doing that also. Renishaw told me what it was but I forgot. (2002?) They told me to comment it and see if that worked. It did.

Search for "subout" or subout$. There's a lot of info in here.

With multiple programmers on the floor there are multiple programs that may or may not be to the correct revisions or just programmed inefficiently. We had a Hurco in which every operator had to have their own programs. We had one part that was eight operations for one guy and two operations for another and they were loaded on the same computer. We ended up moving the programming from the operators to the programmers to eliminate those issues. We now have a Keyence CMM system for the operators to check their parts and lessen the bottleneck at inspection. We've given the operators thumb drives to keep their own programs on.

What do you get when you scrape it with a medium file?

If it may be a corporate thing call IT. Our IT department has been locking up C: on all of our 64 bit machines but not the 32 bit. I had to call them to load up FTP software and then call them back to make configuration changes.

Are your files on a server. If so you should be able restore previous versions. If not a thumb drive might be in order.

For Enshu #1000 is for pallet A and #1001 is for pallet B. On our Kitamura #1001 is for pallet A and #1000 is for pallet B. This sounds like an e-mail with your service department.

I don't know if this will help but you can use the same canned text variable to do different things. if machine = 800 & t$ = 4, [ if cantext$ = 52, [ "G04 P8000", e$ <<<<<<< Adding dwell to give probe time to turn on "M117", e$ ] else, "M117", e$ #<<<<<<<<< turn probe on without dwell (tool change) ] if machine <> 60, [ if (t$ = 4 & (cantext$ = 52 | mi2count = 1))| t$ <> 4, stool_detect_test, e$ # <<<<<<<<<<<< BK Micro checking for broken tool ] if cantext$ <> 52, "M98P5502", e$ #<<<<<<<<<< resets needed work offsets [canned text] 1. "Stop - M00" 2. "Op Stop - M01" 3. "Bld on" 4. "Bld off" 5. "" 6. "" 7. "" 8. "" 9. "" 10. "" 11. "M00 (LUBRICATE HOLES FOR TAPPING)" 12. "Align boring head for fixture clearance [M19]" 26. "IF[#625EQ1]THEN#627=1" (615-969) #added 11-03-2008" 51. "Extra Fixture offset" 52. "Reprobe using current offsets" <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< 53. "B axis clearing on/off switch" added 01-06-2011" 54. "Force Fixture offset" 55. "Force 2nd Fixture offset" 98. "Set HX800iLTGA acceleration rate" #added 2017-04-24 99. "Create seperate toolpath file" (M198 -- 633-101-364) added 06-16-2009" 100. "Empty" Edit: I don't use canned text in the traditional way. It's too cumbersome and I've turned off or removed most of the Pcan calls greater than 10.

Is it still trying to step on previous versions?

You have different peck rates with the two pecking cycles. If you are using two drills for the different pecks, check the drills geometry. If they have different lengths/diameters MC may think they're different tools.

I've just checked a GE480H and both are turned on.

Here's a Postler reply from the same situation. Tim, Thanks here are two parameters to try. 5006.6 Be sure it is set to 1 11260.0 Be sure it is set to 1 Try those and test carefully. I will get on the machine if I get a chance today and check myself Dave Postler Min'e working so one or both did it.

Turn on your rapid retract?

That's one hell of a seed.

What I posted up will create multiple part work offsets vertically and horizontally. I just saw that I forgot to show the related variables needed to populate the work offsets. You will see the variables in the probe call. (last window) #154 MR4$ (NUMBER OF PARTS PER FIXTURE) #155 MR5$ (NUMBER OF PARTS PER COLUMN) #156 MR6$ (MULTIPLE PARTS SPACING AMOUNT Y) #157 MR7$ (MULTIPLE PARTS SPACING AMOUNT X) #539 FIRST OFFSET NUMBER EACH PALLET (1 for pallet A, 25 or 65 for pallet B. #921 Z DISTANCE FROM SPINDLE END TO CENTER LINE OF PALLET) What I posted was for a two sided tombstone but I also have one for square tombstones.

We have 1GB in our GE480H machines. Maybe we got lucky. I'm not sure if we have ever used our PCMCIA slot. Edit: I think we got our cards directly from Fanuc.

Have you tried a thumb drive? If I remember correctly You will channel 17 for it. Also, have you called Enshu? Jeff Daum (service manager) just sent us instructions to setup a new macro that would shut off the pallet hook coolant while the laser setter is running that involved ladder manipulation. The guy is a genius.

I had to grab the third choice for wireframe.
