This is a quick and dirty way to program some very basic machining on a 4th axis. We'll be working on a Haas rotary 4th axis inside a Haas Automation VF5 on some 6061 aluminum shafts.
Thanks for watching!

Those spacers are a good idea for 4th work. I'll be using that one!
dope stuff my man!!!!
Hey, just saw this. What a nice, clean, simple approach. Really like it.
Cool.Like it.Thanks.
Great vid dude thanks 👍
love the tips on 4th axis trying to learn it and Im getting it ,im a self taught in mastercam and solidworks im wanting to become a programmer, i have cnc machine and practice drawing and making things, but i find it hard sometimes when i draw a part and import it to mastercam and i dont know how to close surfaces that are irregular to surface to contour the shape to rough and or surface mill an area with gaps on the surface. i would love to see a tutorial on that been at the same drawing for a week and found a way to do it but was hoping if there are some easier ways to do it thanks and keep up the work man i wish i could work in your shop 👌
thanks for showing us these stuff, more pls
My pleasure, I’ll get back on these ASAP! Thanks for watching!
Hi I have watched all most all your video or vblog. I would use G68 and G69 for things like at. Here is a example of how to us it hope it helps you with other jobs.
( Example use of G68 to make 3 slots in a circle )
T10
M6
G0 G90 G54.1 P20 X0 Y0 S8000 M3
G43 Z3 H22 D22 M8
( First time we don’t rotate the slot )
M98 P0071
( Second time we rotate 120 degrees )
G68 X0 Y0 R120.
M98 P0071
( Third time we rotate 240 degrees
G68 X0 Y0 R240.
M98 P0071
G69 (Turn off coordinate rotation so it doesn’t confuse us later! )
G0 G90 Z250 M9
G0 G91 G28 Z0 Y0 M5

Love it man would have never thought of that! im just getting into hobbiest machining and have a small lathe thats trash but has a good chuck that i am going to canibalize, (ancient sears little 4" thing feed rod is gone and half the gears out of the drive is gone) definatly a subscribe man! thanks!
Thanks brother! Hey man, make sure you save the parts from that lathe - you never know when you need a spare chuck or worm gear. Keep an eye out for machine auctions - you can get manual equipment for pennies on the dollar when plants shut down!
Names are terrible m
I doit so many times ,, good set up ,, i like sub routine if you know it’s really easy too
nice work man!
Thank you sir!
cool workpiece

Just got on your videos good work man!
Thank you sir!
tks
Interested in how you ensured your tail stock was directly inline with your chuck. I am assuming you run an indicator back and forth? I would like to see how you did that.
chuck your piece, indicate your piece, put the tailstock in.
I have a fadal 3016 fanuc control, I have a problem with the fourth axis, I mean the A axis, when I want to record letters in a cylinder runs the first line of the program, and to make the change in the angle rotates the axis completely 180 degrees to make the angle change.
Easier to transform the tool path around or macro in some logic. Some machinist are scared of using macros but properly programed macros make for great productivity.
Excuse me the two spacers tha u at at the ends ... the drawing wanted treats at the end of the aluminum part? Or ? Btw great video
Can we see the finished gate? Thanks!
I have a question on how to do a g-code on a part I have with a 4 axis machine
Haii i have a doubt on fourth axis..working
How can u mark angle of the chuck perpendicular to tool axis..aftr frst operation it will move to 90 degrees how can u identify the frst positio
And if i need to make slot at 33 degree is it possible and how i have to write programme..
You use absolute or relative position, you have to set a degree as your zero.
@@LetsMachine if i place jaw 1 will be my zero degree offset
Then i need to rotate it to 55 degree..
How can i write the programme..for it

Judging by the size of that material those are some expensive ass fence posts.
How much is that gate going to cost. Bet that gate ain't going to be in my neighborhood. I don't like sub programs or macros, they are just a pain in the ass. Back in the day, 70's Hass made retros CNC for Bridgeports very very weird. It was some kind of conversational mumbo jumbo. The program was put on magnetic tape cassette to transfer to controller on machine. You sound Canadian. Sean
I am indeed Canadian! The gate is for a boutique condo building in downtown Manhattan - it ended up turning out quite nicely! Thanks for watching

I would have put the program into a sub routine and the main program contains the A Codes
Dude please buy a mill for Curtis he's still on a hurco
Who’s Curtis?
@@LetsMachine would u buy it if you knew him? He's a great guy
Not knocking you, but i could've programmed that whole part in 10 minutes with Fusion 360, without editing and adding anything, and knowing nothing will go wrong from editing something wrong.
