Hi Guy's,
I have a job in the shop that requires some tight tolerances for some round holes +/-.0001.
I tried doing this in one set up but I'm getting a variation of .00015 between the X & Y axis.
The holes are not round.
This job should really be done in a Lathe, but all I have is a manual Lathe in the shop and I have to make 30 parts to make so
I'm going to try to do this job in the mill.
This is an adapter plate with 2 sets of hole patterns and some counter bores and alignment steps.
What I would like to do is sit my 4th axis up and rotate the 4th axis as I move the end mill across one axis (X or Y) as a 4th axis turns my part.
If one of you guy's could just show me a little piece of code that would rotate my 4th axis continuously, I can take it from there.
Here's a Youtube clip of what I'm trying to do. You will have to watch it about half way through to see what I'm talking about.
