Modelismo y CNC en ingles

Hey New guy here. I have been programming some very basic parts for the cabinet shop I work for. Primarily 32mm line bore with 1/4" holes. We draw the parts in Autocad and then import them to Alphacam. The holes are layed out in autocad using the array function.

Here is the odd thing, sometimes the part will drill fine with the multidrill head, other times it drills one hole at a time. Making even less sense often the part is mirrored in autocad and one side will drill fine, while the other drill one at a time.

Any suggestions on why this happens?

Head is an Anderson 5 x 5 on a Mandi Stratos CNC router if that matters.

Thanks

“Intenss” Blades Feature “Bi-Metal Unique” Technology

ATHOL, MA U.S.A. (August 6, 2021) - The L.S. Starrett Company, a global manufacturer of precision hand tools and gages, power tool accessories, saw blades and more, offers the newly positioned IntenssTM Bi-Metal Band Saw Blades for general purpose metal sawing of a wide range of materials and shapes.

Featuring a patented process developed by Starrett called bi-metal unique® technology, that provides 170% more weld contact with the teeth, Intenss blades exhibit superior resistance to tooth strippage, significantly reducing fracture and breakage, which enables exceptionally long blade life. Performance is further enhanced by M-42 teeth with a multi-edge tooth design that produces split chips for faster cutting.

“Starrett Intenss is an ideal affordable workhorse blade for general sawing in toolrooms, maintenance shops and fabricating or machine shop applications where one blade cutting a wide range of common materials with different shapes is a good sawing solution,” said Jordan Schimel, Starrett Product Manager – Saws & Hand Tools. “In addition, bi-metal unique promotes long blade life, so fewer blade changes are required.”

Starrett Intenss Bi-Metal Blades are available in 1/2", 3/4" and 1" widths and .025" and .035" thicknesses, featuring bi-metal unique. Blades in 1-1/4" or 1-1/2" widths and .035" and .042" thicknesses are also available, without the bi-metal unique feature. Intenss blades are offered in pitches of 10, 14 or 18, and 2-3, 3-4, 4-6 and 5-8 variable pitches. Coil lengths are available in 100' (30m), 150' (45m) or 250' (75m), depending on blade widths. Starrett Intenss blades are available in stock at Starrett industrial distributors or can be ordered on Starrett Precision Measuring Tools and Saw Blades Since 1880.

Hello,

I work on Willemin 408b. And yesterday I had an issue on it.

There is no problem when I start the spindle with M3 S1000. However when I want to stop her with M5. The spindle doesn't stop and this alarm appears : 1301 Time-out start/stop spindle.

But when I start the spindle with M4 there is no problem to stop her with M5.

Do you have an answer for this problem ?

Thank you.

Hello! I need some ideas to start from. I have a CMS Avant 1b/560 px5 (5 axis). I use Alphacam, but i need a post proccesor for it. The cnc comes with Osai 10.

Mutch apreciate!

How to start with Add-in creation using visual c++ for Alphacam?
Any example or resources available?

Help. Is someone have the parametersettings for a leadwell ltc 10 p with fanuc 0 ?
Regards Fredrik

The software sat idle for a few years after our lathe hand moved on and we haven’t been able to find a replacement. So now I’ve been slowly going through everything and getting our Haas st25 going again. Before I updated it would post my finish passes with a g70 and just call the roughing canned cycle N numbers. Now when ever I try to post anything with a basic finish selected it leaves whatever stock was left in the roughing cycle and posts in separate lines no longer using the g70. I have double and triple checked every step and the post nothing has changed except me updating. Any help figuring this out would be greatly appreciated.

Is there a way to use one tool for Multiple Work Offsets so I can minimize tool changes? For example, I have a 3 op part, and each operation is in its own fixture/vise and they currently run off subprograms. I was wondering if I could rough Op2 right after Op1, and how can I go about it since op2 is not a duplicate of op1.

Thank you.

Have a custom built machine, and have been looking for a basic 2 axis XA or 4 axis XYZA post for Alphacam where the Rotary (A) is output in degrees and not limited to 360.

Machine setup is Rotary A stage attached to X axis linear stage.
Y and Z axis are currently fixed/manual adjust and not being used programmatically in this configuration

Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks!

Hello

I am just starting out using HSMworks within Solidworks and have a machining problem as per the attached screen shot , the part has an angled bottom and i only want to machine the outside profile .
The part is 20mm thick and needs to have the outer profile that is maximum 18mm.and help in a jig .

i want the cutter to to offset the bottom of the part by 1mm all the way around , as the longest cutter i can get is 45mm

If i try 2d contour as per the screenshot 1 it cuts the full depth all around

if i use the same cutter path using Contour in the 3D menu it try's to cut a weird path around the top of the part screenshot 2

Im sure i am missing something ??

Hi Guys,

I'm having some trouble getting larger parts to nest over multiple sheets. The parts are basic outlined shapes but will need to come out of a large number of sheets.

I can get 2 parts to nest onto one sheet but then can't get the program to make a new sheet and add the remaining parts.

Is this possible?

Cheers

With the forum down I wonder how many remember to check in over here.

hello, please, how does a code look before going into the postprocessor ?

what kind of data goes, as input, into a postprocessor ? kindly :)

CloudMilling was created to democratize and modernize CAM. For too long, the market has been dominated by systems that are either out of reach, via monetary or other means, or are inadequate for the job.

We believe that anyone, and everyone, from hobbyists and students to professional engineers working at multi-billion dollar conglomerates should have access to the same CAM system.

In the same way, CloudMilling was also built to utilize the most used platform in the world: Mobile devices. Imagine using CAM at the machine to tweak the parameters in case you want to cut a job on a different machine, or with different stock. The possibilities are endless.

• Cloud-Based Solution - Use CloudMilling anywhere on any platform that has a browser, even on your mobile device. No need for expensive workstations.
• Multi-Axis Machining - From 2-Axis to 5-Axis, CloudMilling can machine any job with its cutting-edge tool paths.
• No Compromises - From hobbyists to professionals, CloudMilling can be used by anyone, without compromising expert features.
• Zero Maintenance - With no hardware or licensing requirements, CloudMilling eliminates the use of license files, or dongles, and reduces the need for IT support.
• Onshape Integration - Machine your Onshape parts easily with CloudMilling's full integration.
