You might be able to turn them on for a short trial period. But when the time runs out you will have to pay to have them turned on.

If Marcos are not turned on then you will have to pay for them.

We always check the threads to a thread gage. Had an operator that was suppose to run 10-32 thread and used M5 X .8 tap. It's close enough to the pitch that it wouldn't break but the thread cut over size. The only way it was caught was with the thread gage.

I upload all the time to our TC-S2C-O but I use a file extension. The file would just be O1234

I am willing to bet the video side of the processor broad just crapped out

Same here everyday seems to be a battle. Other wise it's been ok, just became a granddad Wednesday. I am way to young to be having grand kids.

agreed What's going on Chris, how have you been?

we have 4, they very reliable,fast, accurate. The oldest brother has over 8 million tool changes and still going strong.

I say it's part dependent. Our lathe parts are very quick and easy basically a steel doughnut. So we program them at the machine it takes no time. Roughing can cycles are the best to use. Want to try more depth of cut, leave more or less stock for finish. these are very easy to change with roughing can cycles.

That is a thin wall for that distance. What about a variable helix cutter?

If you have a Haas manual goto page 85 (advanced tool management area). This will explain how to setup your control to use backup tooling.

Face mill I would use a shear hog, for end mills I use MA Ford tuff cut AL endmill line. I haven't found an endmill that can come close. I have ran a 3/8 diameter endmill at 12,000 rpm 400 IPM 3/8's deep in 6061-T6 plate and get approximately 5,000 liner feet of cut from one endmill. I have tried many other brands of endmills but nothing has come close to this endmill.

The feed is 25 mm/min that's not very fast. That's under an inch a min

Could someone send that to be also???? PPPPlllleeeeeaaasssssseeeeeeee

You can do both ideas but I think Jim has it. If you look at par 85 on both machines see if they are different.
