Can anyone give me an opinion on OKK VM5III?
We are looking to get one very soon, but are not very sure how they compare to Mori's 50 taper vmc.
We know OKK used to be top of the line several years back, but is this still the case?
We have great experiance with Mori and Kuraki and it appears that OKK is at least of similar quality. We do a lot of high precision machining and need an accurate and rigid machine.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Mark

Finally worked!!!
Even before I put those lines:
fmt N 4 n_tap_thds #Number of threads per inch (tpi) / Pitch (mm)
fmt F 2 pitch #Tap pitch (inches per thread)
Looks great, will now try to get rid of " M3 S...; "
line right after tool change for tap.
Any quick suggestions (not sure if I have any patience left today...
Thanks everybody,
You guys are really gooooood,
Best regards, Mark

Sorry, I don't see it...

I still get an error:
" Variable not defined: pitch "
Should I give up ???
Is there a good soul that can help me??
-
Thank you, but still not htere.
First got a "Variable not defined: use pitch" so I put
use_pitch : 0 in drill variable
Now I have Variable not defined: tapflg
???
Greatly appreciate your help, Mark

" how about Analyze/Between Points...."
Yes but if you want to find the closest distance between a point and a line that is not vert. or horiz. you need to create a line perp. to your line and going thru a point...
That is too much work
-
How about making V10. a 100% Solids based...
and on a simple side how about showing a distance between a point(or line) and a line in Analyze... without creating a line between them...

I just tried it but got an error:
Variable not defined: use_pitch
And shouldn't there be another " ] " ?

Hello everyone.
I'm pretty new to post customization, but I got my mpfan.pst to output the code just the way I like it, but can't figure out rigid tapping.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
It's for MoriSeiki SV-50 and I need M29 S...
Just before G84 G98 X Y Z R Q F code.
Also need to get rid of M3 S... code that is output right after tool change so instead of:
T..;
M6 ;
M3 S...;
.
.
G84...
I need:
T..;
M6 ;
.
.
M29 S...;
G84...
I tried to follow Tom's example but get a massage:
" Variable not defined: peck1rt "
Here is my mpfan.txt
[misc2]
1. "Rigid Tap"
2. "Feed rate"
3. ""
4. "Clearance..."
5. "Retract..."
6. "Depth..."
7. "Peck"
8. ""
9. ""
10. ""
11. ""
[drill cycle descriptions]
1. "Simple drill - no peck"
2. "Peck drill - full retract"
3. "Chip break - incremental retract"
4. "Tapping - feed in, reverse spindle - feed out"
5. "Boring #1 - feed out"
6. "Boring #2 - stop spindle - rapid out"
7. "Misc #1 Drill"
8. "Rigid Tap"
9. "Custom drill cycle #9"
10. "Custom drill cycle #10"
11. "Custom drill cycle #11"
12. "Custom drill cycle #12"
13. "Custom drill cycle #13"
14. "Custom drill cycle #14"
15. "Custom drill cycle #15"
16. "Custom drill cycle #16"
17. "Custom drill cycle #17"
18. "Custom drill cycle #18"
19. "Custom drill cycle #19"
20. "Custom drill cycle #20"
31. "5 axis"
Here is what I tried in mpfan.pst
pmisc2 #Canned Misc #2 Cycle (Rigid Tap)
peck1rt = peck1
n, "M29" , e
pdrillref
n, *sgdrill, *sgdrlref, pfxout, pfyout, pfzout, pcout,
prdrlout, *peck1, *feed, strcantext, e
pcom_movea
Spent all day trying to work it out with no luck...
Please help...
Also is there any kind of self help guide that would help me with similar problems in the future ?
Best regards, Mark

What I like about OKK is, it has a lot more torque (gear spindle), seems more rigid and consumes a lot less power. All this according to a sales brochure, but nothing can beat the experience of users on this forum so again any input will be helpfull.
