I guess I should give a short description of the HT process the VooDoo Heat Treater(me) used.I took the piece on the right and packed it in crushed and powdered charcoal briquettes-Kingsford non match light ,of course in SS foil. I cooked it for 4 hours @1650F and let cool in oven overnight for 17 hours when I reheated from 375F to 1450F and quenched in oil.Then tempered(?) @400F for 1 hour and let oven cool. It is of 1018 steel and now does have a nice hard case. I'll get the hardness checked in a few days. Anyone have an appropriate rockwell tester for sale cheap? LOL!!!!!! Really.

Don't have a Rockwell tester, but if you need DFL send it my way...

Got a call from Ramsey yesterday. I hope to see the sprockets a bit sooner than the shipping date of 1/29/10.

Why are you using height offset zero for tool 1? thats a good way to screw yourself.........
 
Also notice you only have one feed rate in there. Does your programm not have feed rate optimization?
 
Judging be the Z heights, your roughing a fair amount of stock off the top of the part............

Those look like all straight movements to me.  No curves?  Or did I miss it?  I always likes to zero the tool .1 off the material and then just subtract .1 from my depths.  That way when you go Z0 the tool was .1 above everything.

It's been a long time since I messed with that though.  Maybe I need to brush up.

Do does this mean your wrecking tooling or making chips? Lets see some pics if you are doing any of the above!

This is based on nothing but learning the basic cam stuff,I'm sure you guys can and will agree that there are as many ways to do something as there are opinions.

Oh yeah, you might want an M8 in the first couple of lines somewhere.........
 
What post are you using? Is it Fadal specific?

So the rest of us can try to keep up....

The "I" and "J"s always fxxked with me when I was writing by hand. kick  Using cad/cam is almost cheating.  Try writing a few programs by hand that are a couple hundred lines long and your debugging skills will improve.

Just so you guys know,I did not write what I posted. It was written and post processed with MC (a friend of mine provided it) for a Fadal such as mine. I posted it here just to see the comments. LOL!!!! Yes ,he does use the program,as written, daily. It is just the first of about 30,000 lines of code.

 Just curious,why would a person ever use a post that is not machine specific BDKW1?

Boost,"Using cad/cam is almost cheating."  LMAO You damn right it is and ,IMO,only those unwilling to come into the future don't "cheat". You still driving a Model T?
 
On a side note ,I assumed  as soon as I posted anything up to do with programming,the "sideline sharks" would be out looking for my blood. rofl rofl Thanks for the comments guys but lets hold off on flaming my stuff till I post something that I ,myself, wrote and has not proven to work well daily already.I'll gladly accept your suggestions and help when it's my stuff but I doubt my buddy would agree with what has been said about the first few lines of a proven program he runs daily. It works for him and his customers anyway. ;) As always ,there must be more than one way to the end.Just choose the path you wish to get there.

I didn't,buddy does his stuff that way.I have no idea of his setup or reasonings other than what he showed me for code. I assume he has taken a different strategy than you would to machine setup.
Yes ,my program does as do all I have looked at, but that is not my work and it is as my buddy wants it for whatever reason. Even so,to answer your question, I am not interested in running my machine at full speed and popping out parts in the least time possible. I myself will get to hear the cries from you guys about how I can/could/should optimize speeds/feeds when I post first part running slow as molasses. Again,I am not interested in blazing speed,just a good part. I'm in no hurry.I'm not needing to cut a few minutes off the cycle time. I'm not needing to push the machine or tooling as a production shop would wish to.

Yeah,his customer brings in stock of varying thicknesses and he wrote the program to allow him to just set stock on /in fixture and run it.

Wasn't sure what CAD programm you were using and if it had a specific Fadal post. Most CAD programms come with a generic post you can customize to your liking. Memory ain't what it used to be........
 
Anybody using Mastercamm and using the Haas post can thank (or curse rofl ) Me for that. I did the original one from their generic Fanuc post processor back in the early 90's. The Mastercamm rep borrowed it and they start including it in the package.........
 
 
30K lines of code........ I remember when we had to punch them in to a paper tape buy hand........ Things like sub programms and incremental jumps were your friends back then to keep programms short enough to fit in the machines memory.
 
The reason I liked to keep the H and D offsets the same as the tool # is it makes it easier to keep track of when you need to make changes. You might know it's like that, but the guy running the machine that day might not. Again, probably won't apply too you.
