    Lathe workpiece pushing back

    Look to see if there are any M Codes for high pressure clamping. Doosans have this, 2 settings for the chuck pressure. High pressure combats the centrifigal forces.

    Setting Renishaw probe diameter

    Yamazen is there to be bugged, they owe you that much, to be honest. It would greatly surprise me if they don't have probe routines for your machine. The only way to find out is to ask. Also, if you bought the probe from Renishaw, they should have Inspection Plus for Brothers. Practical...

    Setting Renishaw probe diameter

    The true working diameter can only be found with a calibration routine since it takes into account the ball runout, especially at different orientations of the spindle. Paul

    Smooth Interp G5.1 Q2 X0Y0Z0 Clarification

    I don't think so. But this is going back 25 years or so. The 16i was the 31i of it's day. The RISC chip was like a math coprocessor, it handled the extra horsepower required for the advanced functions. Keep in mind that RISC was on a few PC's back then too. I think Fanuc just capitalized on the...

    Smooth Interp G5.1 Q2 X0Y0Z0 Clarification

    Yes, probably wasn't discovered back when the 16i was hatched. Just a more powerful version of Q2.

    Smooth Interp G5.1 Q2 X0Y0Z0 Clarification

    I read a little bit more on this and it turns out that Smooth Interpolation is turned on only for the axis specified in the command line. Eliminate either X, Y and/or Z and it is not turned on for those axis. Why someone would need that is beyond me. Maybe if you are doing surfacing in only one...

    Smooth Interp G5.1 Q2 X0Y0Z0 Clarification

    This is because ALL of these work only within feed moves. No G00 allowed. I'm quite familiar with the application of these on a 31i but not so much on the 16i. Had a risc machine in the 90's but didn't pursue the fine points. Just used G5P10000. It really did help. If you think Fanuc is mum on...

    Iscar capto coolant nozzles blowing out

    The reason I asked is because this subject came up yesterday at work. I work for Doosan. Doosan and Mori may differ but not enough that any Capto holder manufacturer would need different holders for each MTB. So, the attached document may apply but at the very least, might shed some light on the...

    Lathe Tool Offsets

    This is a parameter issue, causing movement when offsets are cancelled. Also, why not wait to cancel offsets until you retract Z and then send X home. Then cancel.

    Back up your parameters NOW

    When you say "overwrite the archive". do you mean on your card or USB or the archive in the control. It may be looking at the header of the archive itself and not the name. Try backing up to a clean USB stick or card. seimens are weird like that. That's why I like Heidenhain, everything is man...

    Back up your parameters NOW

    Since I work for a machine tool builder, I make a generous effort to get people to do backups. Complete backups when possible but at the very least get a backup of your parameters. The attached file is for most current Fanuc controls. The new iHMI controls have a slightly different method...

    Doosan support

    Hello out there. So, I guess this is the first post in the Doosan forum. Just letting everyone know I work for Doosan and am offering my support as an applications engineer specializing in milling and 5 axis but I will support everything if I can.
