  1. Thanks guys. We had to move the job to our NL2500. Our go to guy at Mori seems to be at the tool show and hasn't returned our call. We've done rigid tapping on our SL303 in the past but for some reason it isn't working now. Thanks anyway.
  2. This is live tooling tapping in X using G88. On the preceding block we're using M329 S300. We found the parameter and switched bit 0 to 1 like the manual said but we still get the same error.
  3. We have a Mori SL 303 with MSG501 control. Can someone tell me if there is a parameter that needs to be turned on for rigid tapping to work. We keep getting the message "EX1433, PLEASE SELECT SP. TURNING MODE". Thanks.
  4. The card has not been bought yet and is being chosen because it's recommended by HP to fit into this small box. Below is a link to the specs. http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quicksp...a/12756_na.HTML
  5. Does anyone have an opinion on this card? IT has asked me if it's compatible with MC. I would appreciate any input. Thanks.
  6. What type of machine are you running? Does it have a C axis? Easily done if it is.
  7. We do a lot of 316 and use HSS run 35 SFM. I'd keep the peck and feedrate but use a lower SFM.
  8. Same thing happens to me. If I don't catch it I get a F0. posted as feedrate.
  9. Storkman, What exactly does "didn't work very well with Mastercam" mean? Is there something I should be looking for?
  10. I have a new HP desktop with the Quadro NVS 285, 128MB Ram and haven't had any issues with it using v9 or X. Been in use about 2 months now. Works as well as my old FX 500.

    .ERR FILE

    Thanks John. I believe that was it.
  14. Could someone clue me in as to why everytime I post a lathe file it also generates a .err file? The .nc file is fine but I also get this other one. Thanks.
  15. Are you opening the chuck manually or thru the program? If in the program are you using G98 to put the machine in the IPM mode.
