Jay

i was on a long weekend and just caught

this thread. i wasn't able to read all

the respones, do you have and adress so

i can send by mail. thanks

marty

thad has a thread called oops. in it you can

see a big die. you will also see bushings and

wear plates.like thad said of the strippers

you might have bushing or pin holes to put in

and the rest is basicly clearance for punches.

watch the tolerences and you will know if a

certain part is fussy or not.usally two places

are + or -.01 and three + or - .001.i do alot

of profiling on form punches and die steels.i also do alot of strippers and adapters like

you see in thads die.like thad said i don't

know of any book out there. if you like i could

take some pictures of some of ours to give

you an idea. it would'nt be untill monday.

man i could go on and on about this

hth

marty

afternoon everyone

i have a big ring of stainlee steel to cut.

i have'nt machined this in many many moons.

it's a big ring 33.00 ins. in dia. i have

some pockets and large holes to put in some

tapped hole etc, etc.before i call our cutter

guy i am coming here first.it is 304 ss

thats all i know about it. i will be using a 1.5 dia 3 inserted dyna shear. the inserts are coated

and they work really well on reg. steel a2,d2,s7

and so on.i run that cutter at 2300 rpm at a

feed of 230.i would like some input on the

speeds and feeds for this job.any ideas are

always appreciated.this job should only take

around 6 hours to do.the operator says it

will take him 8 to ten. well i know this

operator and yea it will take him that long.

the owner bet us a lunch that it will take that

long to do.cause my big mouth said it won't take

that long. so i want to have everything set

for the operator.well thanks in advance.

going home now and wait for all the freezing rain

have a good day all.

marty

i don't know if this is a post thing, i'm not

big on that stuff. i'm at home now so i can't

look at mastercam. i'm not that bright,i have to be looking at mastercam to be able to know what i'm talking about ,but if you remove that last

line it should be ok. hth

i have 8.1.1 on my comp. also 9.1.

i don't have all the window updates either

i only do 2d stuff. but 8.1.1 runs great

so does 9.1. if it's a brand new comp.

it has to be a hardware issue

marty

right on the money Tim. when i was

on the floor and had a problem i

would double check everything.

when i was satisfied i had everything

correct,then i would go upstairs.never

did i ever say ,hey your program sucks.

we all have to work together.now the

operaters we have now don't bother with

checking any thing out,its the program

that's wrong.well 98 percent of the time

it's the operater being a dumb arse,just

to lazy to check anything out.the other

2 percent is me.just yesterday i had a

operater come up and did this very thing.

i said ok and i checked my program right in front

of him.i said looks good.turns out he didn't

rotate his program correctly.now if he would

have checked everything out he would have

found his problem.no no it's the program man.

i don't get mad at anyone cause like i said

we all have to work together. just like

this forum.we are all working together.

this place has helped me over and over again.

just my 2c have good new year all

marty
