Del, i,m gettting an arc error when i try this, i take it my post may need tweaking?
-
Guys, i running a 4-axis sweep of an arc on a Makino wire machine and the skim passes are leaving facets that are visible on the part. iv'e tried tightening up the step values and the tolerance values is there anything else i am missing
-
Paul,
good to here from you,they are going thru some tough times there. i miss the folks but not the politics.

guys, i am at judson smith in boyertown. just 15 mins from home so far so good. getting mastercam up to snuff here and working on the posts. the other programmer is using smartcam so i'm it for mastercam. gotta talk the bigwigs into springing dfor the five-axis option for "X"
right now i'm only doing planer 5-axis so i can input the angles by hand but if we go live-5 i'm gonna need the option.
-
Guys just answered my own question, machine opened up and i sent sample code both positive and negative and it worked!!!
no need to reply unless you are looking to up the post count.

Alrighty then, if anyone is running this indexer do you need to keep winding the "B" axis in one direction or can you use +/- "B" axis values as in B-30.0 or B30.0 to position the axis from B0.
trying to solve a problem here using this thing manually. Machine is running right now so i can't get to it to test code.

-

-

Rick,
what is Max 3rd derivative, please.
i'm a newbie working with haas.
-
i have so many commands on my right mouse butoon that it scrolls now is there a way to just show 2 pages side by side.
-
Rick,
param 85 was the same in both machines, are you talking about another set of parameters
-
so far all is silent on the HAAS front i sent them my code friday but no answer yet.
-
both parameters are set the same so i guess i should be looking at the software build to see if it's the same. any other suggestions will be more than welcome.

Calling all haas gurus,
we have 2 machines that are identical, both Haas vf2 supers,both have the fifth axis TC5 single collet indexers loaded on them, one runs the program fine but the gives an error message that states:
Radius at start must match radius at end of arc within .001.
Since the program runs on the one machine but not the other i am assuming that a parameter set must be different between the machines.
am i right or am i wayyyy out in left field.

Jeez, i didn't even take a breath, yoy guys are great.

O.K. gurus,
i need a formula for calculating the depth of a chamfer 60° & 120°included, 90° is no problemo but i can't find my old books at home and the new job has lots of 30° & 60° chamfers on holes.

Hardmill, my sentiments exactly.
you never know any more when someone is venting or predicting the future.

Gorn,
man how are you doing, Bill is just fine, i don't really deal with him that much any more.
Got a few new irons in the fire but other than that things are the same here.
They hired a new general manager who's swingin" the axe big time here. lots of nervous people around here. just let go a guy last week who promptly stated he's going to come back and in his words: " cut up you guys so bad nobody will find the pieces". Needless to say we had a bunch of security patrolling the building and parking lot. At least management took the threat seriously.
