This is a lathe. Machine Simulation only supports mills....

are you talking about Machine simulation?

Yes.

Is this the same machine you were asking about earlier?

 

yes, but i have change with my professor in horizontal!

My question is there any documentation of creating virtual machine in mastercam????

Hello to everyone!!

Whit my professor I arrange to  use a horizontal machine instead of vertical.And I have follow this video but it is about milling https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzDM-Fwq7dk&ab_channel=JesseTrinque and I need a Turret Lathe. And I have some problems abot axis and some other things. My question is there any documentation of creating virtual machine????And is there connection of Machine definition and axis when we create in virtual machine?

That is called a Vertical Turret Lathe. Mastercam doesn't simulate them in a virtual machine environment without using MT. Even then it would have to be a horizontal setup to show you anything as currently they don't have anything for a VTL that I am aware of.  

What is a MT? And you are sure that I cannot use Vertical Turret Lathe in virtual machine environment? That can bee a problem for me.Because I already pick a them for  my graduate assignment.Do not scare me!!

That's a pretty unusual (and old) configuration. I would be vey surprised if there is a ready built machine.

I wonder if you could modify a Robodrill machine (if they do one). It too has the tools grouped around the spindle (although in a different configuration).

Do you have something similar, and I will modify?

If someone have similar or modern vertical CNC machine and I will modify it will been of lot of help.

Greetings, I coming from Croatia and I am student of mechanical college.For my graduate assignment I choose topic Creating a virtual machine and his use in Mastercam..... and I need a help from you guys.I need a model of vertical CNC machine like in a picture. or something similar. It is a TOS Hulin SKJ  10B.

Kind regards!

So you want to swap the G02 and G03?  I'd look to the fmt section of the post if that's the case but this brings a lot of questions imo.

1st, have you proven this with code ran in the machine?  What control is on the machine?

It is Simens 810T

The short answer is to open your post and find your G02 and G03 strings and switch them. It will look something like this.

sg02    : "G2"       #Circular interpolation CW
sg03    : "G3"       #Circular interpolation CCW

With that said, this is very unusual and is worth contacting your reseller to discuss more deeply. The issue is that lies like that to your post is dangerous and is only a band-aid for the problem, not a solution. May I ask what control you are using? If this is something like a MACH3, then it would be a better fit to fix the parameters in the machine rather than break the post. I would be interested to hear more about this.

Thanks for suggestion,  we use a Siemens  810 T. It is a vertical turning  machine and i use a VTL RIGHT TURRET MM machine definition and Generic Fanuc 4XMT-Lathe  for post. My company is in bad relationship with re seller and I must my one fixing a problem. 

Greetings, where can I change a g-cod that change G02 in to G03. Because machine work like that, the G02 is not in direction of clock it is otherwise.

I have use it for control definition and post, but machine definition is different.On TOS i have turent on z-axis and all of that on x-axis. and it is different from  horizontal.but I will tray in a morning. Thanks for advice.But i would like to make for vertical.I would like to know where i make mistake.

Good day,

I am new in this , please can any one help me?

We have a buy a new machine recently a vertical lathe TOS SKJ 10.I need to make a new machine definition and control definition and pro processor.

I am recently using a Mastercam 2018.

I  some how make all of that but it does not follow the couture that i choose.

I do not know ware i make mistake.Please if can someone help me or have similar  machine or a problem, or some tutorial to find?

Kind regards!
