We are looking to compliment our Gildemeister Sprint 65.
It is a bit pricey !!.
We are also considering the Mori NZ-2000T2Y and the Nakamura Super NTY3.
Does anyone have any experience / opinions / recommendations that might help our decision making ??.

Please keep it for a while longer.

Lots of TiAln coated carbide endmills, cut dry or w/ air blast.

if B > 360, B = (B-360)

ooops, I type too slow.

one of many ways:
in postblock ptlchg_com #Tool change common blocks
change
pbld, n$, "G43", *tlngno$, pfzout, scoolant, next_tool$, e$
to
pbld, n$, "G43", *tlngno$, pfzout, "M08", next_tool$, e$

Dead length would seem to be pretty much useless on
a barfeed setup as your lengths are established by facing and cutoff. It would be almost mandatory for sub-spindle/ back work opers though.
Perhaps Hainbuch could help you.

There is a vb script that you can run in MC9 to convert .ge3 files to .mc9 files. From there just read them into whatever version of X you are running.
the file is in a zip on the ftp site under VB_scripts folder and is called GE3_2_MC9.zip

We've been doing Swiss turning w/MC since V5

try something like this :
ptlchng$ #
If mi5 = 1, ptooldetect
ptooldetect # yada yada yada
"tooldetect code here", e$
mi5 = 0 #reset mi5

Mastercam Guru,
if you add in the length of a 118 deg tip point, our formulas are identical w/ the exeption of reading left->right or right->left.

make sure both ops have the same NC filename also

I'm with specv.
No matter what, you still need to know and tell the machine where the parts are.
When using multiple work offsets, all you have to do is program 1 part w/ the cutting code, then move on to the next by using a work offset and repeating the cutting code.
The most simple approach would be having the main prg call the tools, index the tstone, call the work offset, then call only subprogram to do the specified cutting.
With macro B, you can automate the entire process
by updating the work offsets in a loop, etc.
We set a variable to tell the control we only want 1 part, and the machine runs the exact same cutting code as a full run does but skipping the other parts.
Much easier to program and troubleshoot this way IMHO.
No matter what, if your part isn't where you think it is, you got problems.

Stock 60 deg c'drill formula, if anyone wants it:
