difference between "input" and "insert" command
Brendan P replied to apprentice's topic in Industrial Forum
On the older Mori's,you would use (like tommy said) input for inputting an offset. You would also use it if you were inputting data in MDI i/e: MDI S1200 M3 input start Insert is used when using the EDIT functions on the control. However,on the newer style controls,insert is now also used in MDI i/e: MDI S1200 M3 eob insert start Hth's -

As far as I'm concerned,the internet is just another tool in your toolbox. I use it for finding tooling,material searching and different properties of materials,software updates and a whole lot more...

Also,machine controls dont like to turn c.c. on or off on an arc. Usually you will get an alarm

Peter, You make a lot of good points. I say try to keep it as easy for the operators as you can. The one thing that I can say about what I seen in the operators around me is that they aren't getting any smarter.....

quote: And what exactly does wear comp do? It allows you to offset the cutter rad. at the machine to allow for tool wear or undersize tool. by using it,there is no need to change your original geometry to make up for it as you had said you do.

We have a pretty well stocked toolroom. Depending on the tolorence,I may or my not program a feature with cutter comp. We have sometimes +/-.020 on a feature,in this case I wouldnd bother. JMO

If you use computer,this means that your endmill has to be the exact size that you picked in mastercam. You will have no control for endmill wear issues. If you use wear,mastercam will still compute the compensation but will also give you the G41/G42 in your posted code. If you use control,then you will have to input the whole value of your cutter dia. In a Fanuc style control,I usuall use the higher offset numbers: G41 D50

Ooh jeeze,look what I did....

Now that we all 'kicked in',does this mean we can have a Rated "X" folder? Just Kidding....

When you pick a tap,and then input a speed,the feed will automatically be calculated based on the thread. Usually after inputting the speed,hit the 'tab' key and it will change the feed. Speed divided by thread pitch = feed.

quote: I felt kind of strange asking Are you kidding me? Dude,this is the least we can do for you. You have always provided a great service to us by allowing us to upload and download from your server. Specially some of the crap you had to deal with on a few occasions. I hope you have a little $$ left over so you can buy yourself a big tall Beer!

My check will be in the mail this weekend Jay. And thanks a lot for carrying us thru this far. $2.00 is way too little to ask,so I'm hoping that we can all flip a little bit more. Ps: How long is it going to take them to install teh new swimming pool? Oops..... Btw,I wish you had titled this thread a little different. I almost didn't visit this thread because I know nothing about an ftp server. I didn't realize that the help was with funds.
