Our company wants to began using Mastercam 2018 Lathe to program our Mazak Quick Turn Nexus 250-11 MSY . I feel I have to say that the Mazatrol floor guys are very upset so there will be no help from them and I do understand where they are coming from.
I have never used a Mazak Lathe in G code or Mazatrol Yikes I know. Still the fact remains they want this done and I have to get it done. It is my job. That said, I have been machining since I was 19 years old and am 46 now. I am very excited to learn.
It is programming! Tool geometry, speeds, and feeds they are all the same. Mastercam will handle the coding for me, right? I think my biggest challenge will be knowing how to get around on the machine controls to set up the workshifts and touch off the tools etc. If anyone out there could give me some advice or tell me where to find information on what to look for or expect I would be very grateful. If what I wondered about aloud above is crazy talk please also let me know.
Thank you guys so much
