  1. Check out Schunk Tendo E hydraulic holders for those small endmills. 3 micron and under !!
  2. No problem here. Haas ST20Y, ST10 Nomura Swiss Machines of various complexities. DMG Sprint65 Linear ( 2 opposed spindles, 3 turrets , C axis on all, etc) Mori NZ2000T3Y2 Older Hardinge lathes ( Cobra and Conquest )
  3. Thank you sir !! I guess my mastercam window was too narrow to show the tool tip next to the icon. I can always count on the forum. cp
  4. I use it only about once every 3 years, but I need it now Mastercam 2022 doesn't seem to have it in the chooks folder. Guidance would help tia
  5. Been out for a while. We limit the rpm to 3000 and live with it.
  6. Perhaps use a round shank insertable lathe tool ??
  7. I have seen pullout with Schunk hydraulics, but not with their Tendo E. Haven't had a pullout situation yet with Emuge FPC (aka Albrect APC).
  8. Just guessing the control is older, problem probably was two M codes in the same block and the control was using the latter one.
  9. This doesn't apply to your formatting question, however, Last I knew, the # sign is used to start a comment , everything to the right of # is ignored. If you need to output a # to your NC program you need to code it as its ascii value or 35. example: G90G#110 could be coded in the post as "G90G", 35, "110"
  10. A little guidance please, I am unable to locate the section that deals w/ software versions, 'Thee Circle', and whatnot
  11. Have the post alter the variable 'speed' so a spindle speed not ending in zero won't happen, such as: change the least significant digit to zero. speed = (int(speed/10)) * 10 or define a new variable, say, alt_speed then a new postblock: pfixspeed # spindle speed to end in zero alt_speed = (int(speed/10)) * 10 speed = alt_speed *speed or pfixspeed # spindle speed to end in zero alt_speed = (int(speed/10)) * 10 *alt_speed then substitute pfixspeed where speed is output
