Im using modifyed shipped heidihain conversational post. We are only machining arcs in XY plane.
-
Occasionaly we get an arc positioning error in our programs. V9SP1 and posting with Hiedihain conversational post.If I change tool path slightly ie finish amount or post ISO the program runs ok. What should I change in post to fix this problem? Thanks in advance

Ocasionaly when posting a group we drop an operation or get a double tool call (even though same tool number). Each group is for a specific tool and we post 1 program for each tool. We are running 2 seats of MC V9.0 SP1 and the config file is in a common place. If you select group and change common otions-change NCI path problem goes away. How do I make sure we dont have to do this at all as it can & has caused a crash. Thanks in advance.

Is anyone out there programming or using a dekel DMU50e for 5axis commponents. Id like to know what post you are using and how it performs. I need as much feedback as possible to get some money from the bean counter to get something. Why its so hard ,I don't know. 5 machines but no 5 axis post has got me

Gidday Bruce We run 2 seats and share all common files thru our server. If your PCs can see each other I cant see it being a problem , just set the config file to the wright and it should work. We havn't had a problem yet but make sure any changes to common files are documented or passed on so everyone knows whats going on.

We need to purchase 0-80 unf taps for an upcoming job. The matl is 6061 aluminium. The taps have to be cut taps and spiral flute. We have tryed a couple of brands without much luck. Any leads would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Most holders we buy are balanced to 10,000rpm as standard.

Im at my wits end. We have Mcam V9 level 3. The type of product we specialize in are components for the microwave telecomunication industry.Mostly aluminium. Batchs of 100 to 10,000. Enough said. Its all about cycle time and 2 axis programing wins every time . But the customer and technology demands that the model must be used. Is this a no win situation or can surface , model machining of " 2d" components better the cycle time compared to 2d programming. Cheers

Recently saw a video on a Micron machining cell and it was doing what you wanted.Dont ask me how . We were looking to buy but 1million, forget it.
