  1. We have the Kalamazoo Industries one you can get them with a pedestal or cabinet or just bolted to an existing table They have a 1 by 42 inch belt but you can get the Scotch-Brite belts also
  2. Standup or hand held. We have some pneumatic ones hand held with probably a 12mm belt. The stand-up ones are 25 mm
  3. I think he said he removed the s2 at the machine
  4. Yes. The second time is to verify it is writing and positioning correct Check it again after you apply the g54.4 to see if it reads zero. If the probe won't work with 54.4 active you may have to use an indicator. All of our matsuura came with the 54.4 but none of them worked. They would hang up and not alarm out if there was a value in there. Another parameter had to be changed. So you may be writing to it but it may not be applying it
  5. After you write the shift, run the probe cycles again but don't write anything to see if it is correct
  6. Still in model prep. Clear all
  7. I'm assuming these are old programs with no geometry file? In cimco there is a backplot window. You can run it and get an idea if what's going on
  8. I can't remember but I think they are always zero and the angles are in ijk. But I can assure you when working properly it works. Since you had previously centered the parts and this first one is not tracking the work offset properly you may need to double check the parameters as suggested. It can be as simple as 1 or 2 bits that needs to be toggled
  9. It looks like you are trying to open an nc file in mastercam. Find on e with mcx or mcam extension Or use cimco to open the nc program
  10. So if you have the 68.2 option you would use that on 3 plus 2 work and then you have to use the 54.4 for multi-axis work. Is that what you're attempting to do?
  11. Is the part entirely 3+2? If you have the twp in the post already you should be able to probe and go. I was under the assumption that it had neither twp or tcp and you added the 54.4 option
  12. Yea, you need to cancel it just like the twp
  13. I would ask him how he disable it maybe it can be reversed
  14. Door hold May mean that the button was pushed and it's waiting for the signals to stop before it unlocks it but that's just a guess
  15. On the fanuc if the 54.4 value are all set at zero it doesn't activate . If your control is the same you can have it post out all the time and when you do need to use it you just have to put your error in the 54.4 p1 offset. Then you won't have to manually add it each program
  16. Should there be a comma after your n$? I'mnot sure if it will affect it Have you tried it as a misc real? Mp master uses these for look ahead codes
  17. Model prep Clear solid colors Toggle the compete solid selection icon
  18. I think you will have to omit the s because you don't want to write the wcoff. Just the error to 54.4
  19. If I remember correctly g10 L23 p1 will write to the g54.4 p1 offset. So you can incorporate that into a macro or enter it manually S101 is usually g54.1 p1
  20. it should I use it along with the g68.2 twp on 1 part with a 20micron true position. the datums are vary as the machine warms up so I have an moo to indicate them and put the off values in g54.4. are you using the tilting work plane?
  21. We use 68.2 for our 5axis and can set zero of a part anywhere but the kinematic parameters in the control have to be correct to get a tight tolerance
  22. There have been a few times where I've seen some wacky stuff and just simply deleted the offending toolpath and remade it
  23. When you post does it give you a warning about duplicate tool numbers and ask if you want to generate a tool change in the NCI?
  24. Someone posted in another thread about unchecking break rotary moves in the control def. It may help
