I am thread milling a part that will get .0025 thickness of plating on it. In the past I have adjusted the pitch diameter by two times the plating thickeness. A coworker has suggested only 1x the thickness. I can't find a definitive answer. What do you guys do?

Gunther (or anyone else), Is there a way to output the stock size to the set-up sheet? Thanks,
-
Thanks Kaz! I forgot about that.
-
Thanks Gunther, can we still manipulate the ops manager backround color and font. I seem to have lost this ability ( or I forgot where it is).

That old piece of paper put a smile on my face. Wasn't a day I didn't use it. Now it just lays in my old toolbox at home. Thanks for the flashback.
-
I agree. That would save me a lot of time. It is a good start though.
-
sorry, I meant drop down.
-
I used migration and it is in my toolbar?

Why does it take sooooo long to load a new machine definition? It almost seems to scan the solids in the file. Anybody else notice this?
-
Thanks, much appreciated.
-
Thanks, I understand now. How would i turn off the G54,s completely. I can then use an offset in my main program not in my sub.
-
Thanks for the reply's There must be a place to set it and not have to adjust it in every operation? Brett are you referring to the same thing John said? It is the same as when you move around your part in five axis, you do not get new wcs at every move?
-
When I rotate to A90 it is giving me a G55. I thought I new where to turn that off but I cannot find it. I program with the z 0.0 at the center of rotation I do not want a new wcs. I have got to be overlooking something???????

Anybodu using Cimnet for DNC? I was about to buy Cimco, but am very impressed with Cimnet. Just curious if anyone here has had problems with it?
-
Do you have create body selected?

Mask on Arc?

Machtek, I have recently called my Cimco reseller inquiring about data collection. He informed me it is not out yet, but will be available shortly. I am not sure I want to be the first guy on the block with the Cimco version. Although I am only interested in true cycle time. That does not seem like a difficult thing to acuire if it is output via macro.
-
I am considering the same thing. I have not found much info here in the forum. Makes me suspicious when these guys are not familiar with it. My impresion is that the MDC is only providing graphs and tables. Desktop can collect all the info for you. Your machinery must have Macro b. If it does not it is not cheap to upgrade.

Hello Cliff, welcome to the forum. I sent you one to try. Let me know what it did. I do not have lathe to try it out, so it is hit or miss.
-
Bump! Any new news on old Gene? We didn't here much about it on the east coast. We were poised to buy two new MDC 500's and now my boss is not sure he wants to buy from Haas. They are concerned we would buy a product from a company that might go out of business.

I guess it goes to show how well a company can do when it does not give all of its money to the government!
-
Create a step file in pro-e and import that. See if that fixes the problem.
-
Much appreciated!
-
That is strange, mine works fine.
-
Thanks, i will try that.
