  1. are you cutting 0-360? if so make it 0-(-360)
  2. guess you never looked back for the answer
  3. we use https://www.polygonsolutions.com/?_vsrefdom=adwords&gclid=Cj0KCQiAhojzBRC3ARIsAGtNtHVLnJ5LLd7gS9T32-EjwMnrsLwCTsuBUIniLwk6e7jawdyTUpXxdJAaAtFeEALw_wcB they do have specialty ones
  4. we do rotary broaching hexes and squares on our Mazak integrex , works very well not sure if you can find a spline broach
  5. i use mirror all the time, usually just have to right click on geometry and reverse path, then check your start position and comp direction, it will comp change when you reverse if you only have one contour. ( or you can just rechain )
  6. we put USB extender with 4 ports, that way we don't wear out the machine port, maybe less static away from control and 4 port is plastic case
  7. he said bummer not BOOMER
  8. you should put it in the budget when you buy the machine, the cost of a post is nothing in the long run, log how much time you waste editing programs and multiply that by your shop rate and see how fast it pays for itself
  9. we had an old guy that we called them Jimmy-isms he parked in the "computer" parking lot
  10. usually means you changed some of the geometry that is used to create the solid
  11. it saves when you close, so close before you copy the backup over
  12. that he did. we had two lista cabinets filled with custom thread form tools for bottle molds along with all kinds of form tools and broaches
  13. we had an old guy that could grind anything , he was a mathematical genius
  14. just move the solid to another level and shut the other one off
  15. showed up in auto updates this morning
  16. from Haas website G84 Tapping Canned Cycle (Group 09) https://www.haascnc.com/service/codes-settings.type=gcode.machine=lathe.value=G84.html For Axial Live-Tool tapping, use a G95 or G186 command. For Radial Live-Tool tapping, use a G195 or G196 command. For Reverse Tapping (left-hand thread) on the Main or Secondary Spindle, refer to G184 Reverse Tapping Canned Cycle For Left Hand Threads (Gr.... More programming examples, in both Inch and Metric, are shown below: G01 Linear Interpolation Motion (Group 01) https://www.haascnc.com/service/codes-settings.type=gcode.machine=mill.value=G01.html This F value can be in units (inch or metric) per minute ( G94) or per spindle revolution ( G95), or time to complete the motion ( G93). The feedrate value ( F) can be on the current program line, or a previous line. The control will always use the most recent F value until another F value is commanded. If in G93, an F value is used on each line.
  17. i always try to keep the feed rate to as close to a whole #, your control might round to 2 places also
  18. we use oil with 10-32 form tap in SS, Emuge recommended 100-150 holes we're getting 250
  19. contact Emuge, they are great to work with
  20. doesn't rigid tapping lock out speed/feed adjust
  21. not sure just did a quick look, you could probably scale it to fit your needs edit: i just downloaded it is 6"
  22. try grab cad https://grabcad.com/library?page=4&time=all_time&sort=recent&query=Tailstock
