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.

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?

Programming and probing backup tools

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. -
Cutters for Aluminium , Plastic Machining.

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 -

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.

At my last job we cut 100% aluminum. You need a good coolant to be able to cut at high rates. We were cutting around 400imp with a 3/8 end mill. If it wasn't for a good coolant we would have never be able to hit those numbers.

Here is some info i have on Kovar. Carbon .02 Nickel 29.0 Iron Balance Silicon .20 Manganese .3 Cobalt 17.0 Aluminum .10 Zirconium .1 Titanium .1 Phosphorus .025 Sulfur .025 Tensile 85,000 If I remember right this didn't machine to bad. It was a little gummy, I would use Carbide for just about everything. Just like Bob said make sure you don't rub, with the Nickel you want to be cutting.

Is your part scale at the right scale? Is your part center line on zero? How are you programing front of the part as part zero? If so the front of the part should be on zero in mastercam. The plane i would use would be D+,Z- in mastercam

Logitech cordless optical trackman for the right and 3D Connextion space explorer for the left.

We have a couple of Brother machines here very very fast. I like them better than the robodrill.

On Haas machine Rigid needs to be turned on. How old is the machine? If it is a farely new machine you can turn rigid on but it's just a trial and will shut off at 50 hours of use.

Taper is 1 deg 47 minutes per side of all american tapered pipe threads.

Ether ajust your tailstock or cheat with A "U" in the program. If you are not comfortable with editing the program than i would go with the tailstock option.

Haas machines like most look ahead when running. Just because it stoppped on that line doesn't mean that is the problem. Read though the rest of your program to see if your problem is there.
