Hats of to you and the welder Chris, I have had to make something like that but on a manual lathe so cut a half and full patten for the radius and nibbled away took ages lol
Nice work. The 8mm tool chips so well. I always struggle with the plunge, side turn chip control is not a problem. Did you program the whole thing in conversational programming??. I use solidcam for jobs like this..never really had any experience with conversational. 👏👏👏👏
I used to use surfcam for nothing more than making the single line 2d profile of the shaft. Then I’d just generate G code from that line, with compensation. Then I had a few basic program templates that I was inject these lines of g code into. Usually did a G71 and G70 with it. I wrote a custom macro program for grooves with corner rad options top and inside. But if you can use conversational, dope. I always just opted for straight code since it allows me a lot more flexibility and has brought me to places waaaaaay beyond it in terms of complexity. I’m learning 5axis Siemens controls and moved onto Hypermill. I still miss the big turning. Which is why I love Chris’ videos. His speeds and feeds are always spot on and his approach’s sound.
Can I ask something as a man who has never used a lathe ; When turning the hollow you worked from right to left on each pass. Is there a reason that you never then cut on the return left to right run?
On worn out manual, using just right to left assures that any slop in cross-slide ways does dot affect the cut, as it is always seeing load in one direction.
@Chris Maj nice. We had a couple centers that pretty worn. We would get .0002 high low in two axis. Had to send them out to be reground. It kept producing some weird issues when I was trying to do burnished rings 200” apart but holding a TIR of .0003 or less.
Seems like a bit of overkill when a plate and a cylinder welded on would do the same thing, but the print is the print and the pay is the same either way.
1:39 specify Edge Angle 90° and Nose Angle 0°. Go to your tool offsets enter your tool tip #3 (outer turning) enter the radius of your tool (in my case 4mm) what fanuc series you have?

Great little job, beautifully done. That 8mm button insert sure does hog out the material, doesn't it? Thanks for another excellent video.

Your videos are the combination of education +practical knowledge
I don't know if can learn anything from my videos. It's more of a showoff my work channel.
Beautiful as always, Chris!

Most of my work is done with conversational. You can easily do some crazy things without using Mastercam or solidworks.

Nice job, you really know your stuff. 👍Programing the tangent points of the radii makes my brain shutdown.
That's were the conversational programming comes in very handy.
Nice bit of turning mate 👍 thanks for sharing 👍
Would greatly appreciate knowing what your feeding and how fast with that groove tool I struggle to break a chip and have a decent finish

You can cut both ways, it's just that turning cycle that I'm using goes only one way.
On worn out manual, using just right to left assures that any slop in cross-slide ways does dot affect the cut, as it is always seeing load in one direction.
@Martin Konečný That makes sense, thank you.
@Chris Maj Thank you.
Super!👍
What kind of runout do you get with that center?
Last time I checked 0.0002"

@K W For what I do 0.0002" is more than enough.

My teacher from trade school always said "Drawing a holy thing". Lol
I work on Fanuc 18i-TB. Its so easy.
Is the curve toolpath CNC, or manual accordingly do DRO?
It's all cnc
Thanks for sharing 👍
Hey Chris, That 8mm tool is it position 9? Programmed with G42?!
It was done with manual guide
@Chris Maj ok so it comps automatically? I have manual guide on my Doosan Puma! Need to play with that……
Witam! Czy to nakładka manual guide
Tak jest, fanuc manual guide
Lol, I do that same little spirit fingers jazz hands move at 1:07 when I'm manually entering numbers on my machine also.
Yeah, I'm a visual person, lol
На 16к20 делаем . Ничё сложного
プーリーの加工めんどくさいよね 掴み代少ないから しかし円のバイトだと綺麗にできるんだなあ
Can you tell me the G71 type 2 command structure?
Im asking cause i dont really know but why are you using tailstock on this part because it's not so long
I hope they got those glued on real good.
I have a goodway from 2005 with manual guide...i have never been able to describe a parting tool with that kind of insert...any tips and tricks?
1:39 specify Edge Angle 90° and Nose Angle 0°. Go to your tool offsets enter your tool tip #3 (outer turning) enter the radius of your tool (in my case 4mm) what fanuc series you have?
@Chris Maj thanks. I will try it out :) I have series 18i-tb it’s a goodway gs-260M lathe
Green paint marker...third shift confirmed.😂
What did they cut that piece of stock with? A dull hack saw maybe.😁
Makes me feel a lot better about the cuts I get from my Grizzly 4x6 bandsaw in my basement shop 😂
I think all machinists have had those "what were they doing?!" Moments about the saw guy
That lathe is fully automatic?
Yeah, it's a cnc lathe
good video chris maj
What kind of factory are you building?
The kind you don't ask about...
Can u show programme
Half video...
saw guys...
I don't think he likes me very much 😅
