0TC Running program using G71 canned cycle and G70 for finish path. Cut a little oversize. Wanted to just run the G70 cycle to see if it would clean up to size. Block deleted both G71 lines and away we go. Ran the G70 just fine until it got to the end of the profile. Instead of...

height of V 1.135. Width at big end, approx 6.35. width at small end, approx 4.87. Spindle centerline height. approx 6.25

Been running 10 hours daily for 3 weeks. Seems to have started this morning. Once homing. Twice in cycle. Twice while just sitting. Once on power up. HCAL in 720 Diagnostics. HC LED lit on drive board. Cable to servo has been checked for continuity. (Why aren't the Honda...

One of the guys is using fusion and it is driving him nuts. Simple radius around outside corner. Insists on outputting thousands of tiny linear moves instead of an arc move. Also wants to output tiny linear moves in all 3 axi as tool feeds down to the next level. What is fucked up in the post?

8055t control. Running parts. tool moved in holder. Fucked up, scrapped part. Modified tool holder to hold tool better. Loaded next part. Brought tool to part and skim cut to establish a diameter. This with tool offsets active. Fagor method: T5D5. Measured part diameter. Fagor...

Grinder came with some other stuff some 8 years ago. Have a need to use it now. Can't figure out how to swivel the spindle head on the column. Machine does not jive with any manuals I have found.

Customer sent a .step file to the guy here that uses Fusion. I asked him to "save as" an .igs file. He says there is no provision in Fusion to do that. Is that right? Fusion won't convert and save as a different format?

Would like to increase memory on this machine. Not sure how much it has. If info I got is correct, parameter 9921 is for memory. 0=640 1=320 2=160 3=80 4=40 My parameter 9921 is 01000101. 800 meters? KB? Is the above correct? Memex site says card A20B-2900-0352 is 2.5MB, A20B-2900-.351...

Desperately need H-408-1 screw for old Valenite E-Z Set boring bar. Somebody used a 5/64 ball end allen wrench to loosen screw and it broke off. it is jammed pretty well. Been unable to get it out. Lots of listings on the internet, nobody actually has any.

0TC. Address X017.7 in the schematics. Search for it in the ladder comes up with "bit nothing." Opposite of that is : Ladder has address X021.4 in a rung but no documentation in schematics/charts. Trying to figure out what is causing machine to go into E-stop after several hours of...

Have a problem with a bit of code in a post for Fagor 8055T. I think I used a Fanuc template to make the post. Anyhoo, this doesn't work. No error, but it just doesn't do anything. ;CODE:#THRDANGLE=#THRDANGLE/2 Any idea why this doesn't output half the thread included angle?

Customer brought me a bronze nut to copy. Body diameter and length come out to even English numbers. Not so for the thread. Double lead left hand metric(I guess). Asked if they can bring me the screw. Says it is too much trouble to remove it. 4 pitch acme topnotch insert fits in thread...

Above is a shaft we are making from bar stock. Using type II canned cycle. Program roughs full length of part down to profile, then makes two passes that jump over the major diameter in the middle of the part, then it completes the left side of the profile, then jumps to right end of part and...

Recently acquired forklift that needed lots of attention. Hyster H60XM. Perkins diesel engine. Virtually nothing about the engine in the Hyster manuals I have. Instrument cluster was disintegrating. Steering column covers broken into multiple pieces, some pieces missing. Previous owner...

When M01 is activated cycle time clock does not stop. Is there a parameter to make the clock stop? (On my 0 and 18 controls the clock stops.)

Fanuc 18MC 32 tool magazine. G.Data table has the same tool listed in two pots. Specifically Tool 14 is listed in pots 22 and 32. Been years since this happened. Can't find notes on correcting this. Tool in spindle is #1. Thus it is not in the pot list. Tool 14 is in pot 22. Pot 32 is...

On a lathe. Suddenly getting spindle fault message. "Motor overloaded" 3 times, "inverter overloaded" 1 time today. Yaskawa "fault diagnosis and corrective action" table: OL1 Motor Overloaded: inverter output exceeded motor overload level-- reduce load OL2 Inverter Overloaded: inverter...

Vaguely remember seeing an example where A(?) was used to rotate tool to next hole. Something along the line of G98 G81 X___ Y___ Z___ R___ A___ . Probably had more to the code than that. Syntax or am I dreaming? Could use G72.1. Want to try to avoid 91 lines of X Y moves. (Hold over...

Fagor 8055T control, Fagor servo drives, SEM servos(I think). Battery died, some parameters corrupted. Reloaded from back-ups. All but Z axis straightened out. On power up, servo hums noticeably, try to jog with handwheel, screen displays movement, but carriage is not moving. Change...

21iTB. Feel more and more like an incompetent rookie every day on this machine. Trying something I've never done before. Using a different tool to finish(G70) after G71 cycle. Followed profile as expected, however, at end of cycle, tool plunged into the work instead of going to tool change...
