No taper on the insert
-
Thanks to everyone, I got it to work. Then on my drive home, had an epiphany..... If you run out of cutter comp, tell mc the tool is a smaller diameter....Doh
-
The mc file??? I got the taper issue worked out. had to decrease the size of my tool, but cant add enough cutter comp to produce the thread
-
my taper angle is set to 1.7899....still no luck
-
I have a kennametal inserted thread mill. I'm trying to create a 1"-11.5 npt thread. Now it seems to want to work backwards...i.e. bigger at the bottom of the id and shrinking towards the top.... I've tried changing the taper angle to a negative to no avail.... Somebody save me... LOL
-
Thank you sir!!!
-
So, if i say it has one tooth (insert redneck joke here..) I should get more revs??
-
I can create my thread milling tool, but upon posting the program, it only does one revolution. Is this normal? can I get more than one step?
-
Ended up using rolldie on the 4th axis instead. Thank da lord for the search function here, and all the brains. J to tha K

I have a Fanuc O-i control on a Femco lathe. Is there a parameter to change to use the g34 code? Has anyone used this and can give me an idea where to start? I need to do a 1 inch per thread to a 1.75 inch per thread over 20". 15 turns Cant find the info on the net, so I thought I'd hit up the real geniuses here! Thanx Jer

I draw in MC exclusively. I don't know how to use solidworks, except to translate it to a format I can pull into MC. When I do use solidworks, I find that alt f1 doesnt work!!! Jer

Maybe I should get 90deg square inserts? Cant seem to configure it any other way
-
I have one,.I just cant seem to get the slot configuration I want. I want 90 deg top and bottom

Has anyone used one of these? Indexable inserted slotting tool. I got one and it has parallelogram inserts. I can either have a parallel slot with angled sides, or a perp side, with an angled slot. I need to set up the insert so I get both parallel and perpendicular. The tool is made by Michigan Drill Corp. I'm open to any suggestions. thanx in adv. Jer

Not sure, I'll find out today

Its a moot point, he doesn't have the spindle orient function add on. If he did, it would be M19 P45. for 45 deg. angle, You can also use R for up to 4 decimal places. He just needed to put a small hole in the front of the part, on the face. Thanx for the replies. Jer
