The three steps of journey level machining
Leon82 replied to nickbe10's topic in Machining, Tools, Cutting & Probing
Anyone ever hear the sound of a robomate rev up to 10000 rpm and plunging into a Herman schmidt tool make vise at 50% rapid? -
Backup Air compresser stratagy

Do you have a storage tank? Our system has a 120 gallon I believe. It may buffer a little for you -
I went from 25 to 75% stepover. Only about .300 deep at time. Then cleared the scallops with an insert mill 2 passes. I used the transform in z for the 2 drills and insert mill. It worked well but I wouldn't use anything under 3/4 inch diameter for that application

The NC formats we have now it doesn't work. Is this possible to achive?
-
We used a sandvic 880 insert drill in a super invar job because the rep said it would work for plunging. It did, but it sounded like crap

Compensation Poll - Take the poll
Leon82 replied to Matthew Hajicek - Singularity's topic in Industrial Forum
Maybe to save some characters to fit in the machine? I use it all the time even on a chamfer because I don't feel like clicking the dialogue box lol. -
I worked with a guy who programmed all his endmills .499 ect. He used computer all the time. He also had a part with two separate programs with the same setup. 3 tools each. The part had a boss that was roughed and a hole was spotted then removed to run the other pieces. Then the second program would drill and tap the hole and finish the boss. I think he didn't want to touch off more than 3 tools

Wear. I use off once and a while too for roughing a notch or as a facing cut -
Must have been a flight safety part. Once the process is approved your stuck with it unless you get it re certified
-
I think I will try this with my rwp fixture assemblies. I accidentally saved my whole program into one
-
We used to have a few older programs with a combination of control and wear. I never ran them but there were a few times the value wasn't imput and parts were scrapped.

Threadmill Without Pilot Hole
Leon82 replied to McLaren's topic in Machining, Tools, Cutting & Probing
Internal threads only the minor is a little bigger. The tap is the same -
If your using a 213 drill its probably too tight. Buy a 5.5 mm drill.
-
What was the minor diameter of the holes after they were tapped. If its small use a bigger drill. .0005 will make a difference in the formed minor
-
You can pick a file to punch out through the manual entry
-
You have a lot less tolerance with a form tap on the hole diameter. you should not be hand tapping with a form tap either ,it is going to be very hard you can peck tap if you want what kind of material
-
Can The Tool Room manager really tell you to do that or is he just giving you his opinion?
-
You can also set it in the control definition to add zero to tool offsets. If you have an older machine that doesn't differentiate from an h or d the post option will override t1 h1 d31 for example
-
I believe you can get to it with the exclamation point in the files setting tab. Someone may have unchecked it then hit the save button to save it to defaults
-
Check it in the defaults settings so it will be pre checked on new files or paths

We have x9 so I don't know if my experience will be he same for you I tried 3 at once and they all loaded, but it seemed a little longer than starting only one. I did 4 as fast as I could individually and they worked fine. Our computers all use the same username.
-
We have 5 stations with a net hasp and haven't noticed this. I can try tomorrow to launch a few at once. But 25 license checks at once may clog it up I suppose. Not sure what actually happens during this. Could be encryption or other fancy IT lingo
-
Is there a scale factor hidden in a dialog box somewhere?
-
Which cd.? We use complete but I wouldn't mind messing around with it in mastercam
-
I'm a snail tapper. 1000 rpm is most likely perfectly fine
