    It worked. i even found a fanuc A02B-0303-K150 adapter that came with one of them so the door will close with the card iniit
  2. Leon82
    Ok thanks. Maybe it was an MD. It's on a feeler 580 pallet
  3. Leon82
    will this work with an oi-mt?
  4. Leon82
    yes then it will enter from the left and right. it may do some ramping still but it will do what it can from the outside on left and right. you can put it on center containment option too. the rest milling will prevent it from machining the whole boundary
  5. Leon82
    make the containment the travel limits of your machine from x0y0. if you have enough air it will go from the outside
  6. Leon82
    you can manipulate where is starts with the containment boundary. you may need to make a stick model and use rest machining making an entry area in your travel limit
  7. Leon82
    Put a # in the header area on the line where those are output. It should be able to see what's on each line
  8. Leon82
    are you using line for orientation? i usually use line and let it do its thing
  9. Leon82
    I usually don't do anything special. Is the back half yellow indicating cutting geometry? Shank clearance may be too big
  10. Leon82
    Draw a containment with the fixture outside of it and leave a large area for the tool to enter on the part side
  11. Leon82
    I miss having that.

    You could make a sub program and program the feature incremental. But you can adjust to go by operation type and order. You would need one for each tool that has multiple ops to use the minimum tool changes and prevent feature jumping
  13. Leon82
    So you would transform the 2" and then do a rotate and ghost the transform 2" op out
  14. Leon82
    I have rotated translates and translated rotates. It works, just don't go crosseyed trying to follow it after your done
  15. Leon82
    personally i don't like negative depth facing. if the next time the stock is different it could wipe the jaw out or make the part ull. I would set off the bottom and start with the shortest piece
  16. Leon82
    when you have duplicate planes the t/c will jump back to the first one when you change the views. this has been like that for a while
  17. Leon82
    rough, flycut on 3m tape, finish. leave material for a final flycut if needed

    I'm doing something similar on our pc4. Base work offset is g54 I used g55 and 56 so rotate up on an angle to skew datum b which is under a lip. Then use system variables and math to add 90 degrees and write to 54c then rotate again to get b under the lip at 54 c0. Then back to 54 and get Tatum c. Datum a sits on 3 target point pins and there is a 4th match milled to prove for z. It's working really good.

    I'm pretty sure that was a star trek episode too.
  20. Leon82
    you may be able to use the high feed feature in the ops manager
  21. Leon82
    What happens when you do stuff on the PC? Mine will idle at 2.5 but once you move the mouse it goes up to 4+.
  22. Leon82
    It's called file repair now
  23. Leon82
    Ok, i made a 5 axis home plane .00001 different and it worked. and camplete didn't yell at me either so i think it will work like this.
  24. Leon82
    I would think it would be fine as long as they remember to rotate it. It's still a mechanical number It would have to omit the rotary moves to prevent an alarm for non existent axia
  25. Leon82
    We have the small lang. It works but you have to make a few facing passed to clear big pockets. The center doesn't really provide push because the blade isn't there. I put an approximate tool length in and tweak it as needed. It will suck loc lines into it and destroy itself if they are too close.
