  1. What does the pspindchng post block look like. Also the ptlchng (not the null)
  2. There may be a switch in the beginning to force it out, Based on the way you are doing that I would go intothe prapidout post block and change the speed to *speed. It may be spelled differently I haven't look in a while. Better of using a force tool change with manual entry in my opinion. You are getting lucky because the control is remembering modal commands
  3. Is it a hardened pen can you use a pulley tap?
  4. I did this in our matsuura by modifying a generic 4 axis post. But it kept posting on the right side and I needed it on the left and was I unable to get it to do that. I ended up having to do it transform operation and I was able to hack my way through it. Camplete offers a pretty good utility to accomplish this though
  5. You should be able to read them all back in the same way
  6. We get silicon nitrate tipped probes from q mark. Aluminum will build up on a ruby
  7. The post itself we got from the matsura tech. It's nothing special. He had all the clearance heights on absolute and he swears they were on incremental. I don't know if it's related to the missing geometry but it's only small sections of chains. But it does warn if you go to delete an associated entity
  8. Is there a cause for this? my coworker said the operation wasn't dirty. he didn't watch camplete because it was a proven operation and it broke the tool.
  9. If you click the question mark it has an explanation. It averages between wall and floor if I recall.
  10. The fanuc parameters are more important, Camplete uses them for the simulation so if your getting super close to the machine parts. We always cut a test block on 5 sides with two holes 180 degrees apart. Then you can set the tool height by measuring the width. Then check from 1 face on each side for one direction and the top face to the hole for the other direction
  11. When you program off the datums and not the center of rotation are you shifting it when you go into Camplete? Otherwise a simulation is going to be cockeyed.
  12. It's a tradeoff between resolution and holding torque. A 5mm pitch will get you .0001 inch steps if you microstep it 10x. But you are losing some holding torque by chopping the steps that much. When I sent mine up in Linux CNC there's a testing menu where you can run it at whatever speed you want then you can monitor for missed steps
  13. The brass nuts are usually split along the same axis as the thread with a screw or two to tighten the backlash effectively closing the pitch.
  14. We usually retap our nickel plated threads. For tight surfaces we compensate the .01mm for nickel usually. Unless it's a dowel pin hole we mask those. For invar we had to have the plater nickel plate them strip them and replate them and it resulted in a better plating and no flaking
  15. Those are in the fanuc control. You set those to the actual trunion values and ideally would match Camplete So yes your indicated position would go there
  16. Hold shift and click edit the machine from the resources menu. This unlocks secret options to edit. I think you can do this here.
  17. Yes tpc you can probe or indicate the part in, set g54 and go. With Camplete it doesn'atter how your planes are set. A program for an ac Machine can be reposted for a bc machine with no modifications. You don't even need a new nc format
  18. I apologize for my voice to text translation. It has been turrable
  19. It's hard to say. Sometimes if you don't get under the service enough the tool just rubs on it
  20. It will probably wear down. We've never cut it off. When I cut a layer of anodize off I usually use a cid or similar tool Can you lap it?
  21. It has the possibility of flaking. Of I had to I would program it to climb cut around the outside.
  22. So i tried to make this macro to check 3 parts on a fixture checking a witness cut from the previous operation. It seems to work like I intended. the first check is for the height and the other is for crookedness. is the anything you would add or remove? thanks. % O0010(OP 3 PROBE) (DATE - OCT. 27 2021 TIME - 3:44 PM) (MACHINE - MATSUURA MAM72-35V 3 AXIS) G131 R10 G91 G28 Z0 M19 G0 G90 G80 G40 G49 G17 G54 N10 T311 M6 ( 2 MM PROBE OMP 600 ) M01 M132 G0 G90 G54 X2.8949 Y-.512 AX[4]=0.

  23. Of you merge instead of copy and paste for it include the baggage?
