To figure out how much time you would need to plan and program the part. Estimating the tools to make and which steps to take first to last. Not to mention the fixtures and components. I have had issues with solid models like that myself. The engineer doesnt know how to draw the features so he just leaves a note on the drawing and then expects you to figure it out.

I appreciate you taking the time to make this breakdown. Fortunately I have a pretty good relationship with our engineers and I can push back some on their designs. It really helps when you know what a feature’s purpose is so you can know how seriously to treat it. I feel like we might be in the same boat retirement wise, I’m pretty burned out but there is practically no one with experience available who can take over the shop when I leave so I’d be really hurting the company if I went. I think a lot of machinists approaching retirement are in this boat. I already have a garage shop set up for my post retirement.

Wrap milling with Esprit is pretty amazing it works very well on a straight 4 axis machine if you have a good model (native to your software if u are lucky) to get the chain features / free form features from. The drawing notation to "machine from solid model" is pure laziness, then just add crappy solid model from the customer to top it off. Great job Peter very impressive.

Peter, do you adjust your machine's parameters frequently? Running Mazak's a lot of people have trouble with that- mostly having to change parameters because the experience barrier alarms / alarms related to travel limits. Also have you ever done an update on the PLC? would be great to see a video on those subjects.Adjusting parameters is an art and requires serious care and knowledge but it is very interesting when you can sort of trick the machine into doing certain things to make the machine perform in certain way. Thought you might have good perspective and knowledge on that. Cheers and happy new year!
@EdgePrecision

If you run Mazatrol programs you will be adjusting parameters continually. But running g-code (what Mazak calls eia programs) you don’t need to adjust parameters. So because I run g-code programs I don’t ever adjust parameters and I disable safety barriers because the simulation in my cam software is so good with collision detection I don’t use them.
@3RPRECISIONMFG
5 ай бұрын
Thank you for the information. Yes- I avoid using Mazatrol as much as possible- it can work well for some very simple part features but have found it quite frustrating in terms of how many alarms it throws even when doing something more straightforward. Even though TOOL DATA menu is mostly meant for Mazatrol, I still use it for EIA for tool management. Esprit has great simulation. Mostly use Mastercam but would like to switch for that reason. Really great to see this video with some Esprit tool paths, would love to see more of that content if you are able to document your programming in future videos.@@EdgePrecision

At the tolerances I was dealing with where (+-.005”). I wasn’t to concerned with this. I also took many spring passes with the bar. The tool wasn’t cutting into the aluminum spacer.

OH 1 question with a 5 axis machine did the feed rates get converted to inverse time feed for the wrap operations? I have never ran a 5 axis. Thanks.
@EdgePrecision
5 ай бұрын
The cam software must calculate the feed based on the rotary axis feed. When inputting the feed it is in, inches per minute in my case. By it changes it to degrees per minute when rotating the rotary axis. The linear axis’s are limited by the rotary axis speed to make the end point of the move. If that makes sense. So the rotary axis controls the feed. Unless your machine has very fast rotary axis’s that could keep up with the linar axis’s. On a wrapped cut in the cycle you enter a diameter so it can calculate this. On videos you will see when the tool path is close to the center of rotation the rotary axis will feed/rotate very fast. But on this machine the C axis isn’t real fast so in general it limits the feed.
