Hello Hood

If you take a look in my Program in G76 there is no chamfer value set.
Do I have to set a Chamfer Value to 0

So how I understand you, there is a general problem with the CSMIO and Mach3 when threading ?

Hi Hood...

Yes...Pick up is not the right word.

I mean , when the tool reaches the end of the lenghts and than get off the piece and run to the beginning to continue with the next pass.

Always at the end of the threat when the tool gets off , it get off very very slowly

I atteached you the XML ...hope you find wahts wrong.

Thank You men

The Problem is that the tool cut the first pass and till here all is fine ...but at the end of the lenghs of the thread when the tool picks up to run to the beginning for  starting the next pass the tool picks up very very slowly...reached the measure the tool continues with the next pass... reached the lenghts the tool picks up very very slowly....

If I got four hours of time to produce the thread ...than I dont care ...but I got no time for this jokes.

Can someone help me to understand the issue ...HOOD where are you

Hello Brett..Hello Hood.

Ok let´s start again ...the values I posted are not correct. I was going by description of the 4.th Axis. But the pulleys are different.

Ok Restart. One pulley got 17 teeth and the pulley on the spindle got 127 teeth. I counted by myself this morning 

OK my calculation was this diameter of the big pulley 82,19mm dia from the small pulley 11,00

If my calculation is correct , we got a ratio of 7.47 . Is this right ?
Now  200*8*7,47 /360=33,2

Is this correct ? 

Now my question is , The value of 33,2, is this the value to set in the A-Axis Motortuning as Steps ?  But this are degrees or not and in the Stepsfolder Mach requires mm ...or not?


Thank you

Regards

Hello together.

Can someone help me?  I purchased a 4th axis for my mill. Now I have to set the steps in Motortuning.

I got a ratio 1/8 because I have two pulleys on it. One with 12 teeth on the Stepmotor and one on the spindle with 72 teeth.

How do I calculate the steps ??

Thank You

Regards
