Mazak CNC Lathe Bar Face Function. In this video, I am showing how to program using the Bar Face function. This is for cutting in the X direction vs the Z direction.
I've been programming mazaks via mazatrol for close to 20 years now, and I just learned something new today. Thank you for making these videos. There aren't many people making these step by step videos on mazatrol programming. The programming manuals supplied with the (older) machines might as well be in a foreign language if you're a newbie trying to understand them.
You're probably going to find that your boring bar is not rigid enough to do internal facing. It can work if you limit your depth of cut to 0.030" max depth of cut, but it is usually better to turn towards the chuck with a boring bar. I've used a facing cycle on internal tools when turning a flat bottomed hole.
@@86joeblowit’s true. You can’t take much of a facing depth cut, but it did the job. I finished the actual internal angle by the common boring method of “toward the chuck”. Mix and match. I hate having chips buried inside the blind hole, which is why I faced the majority. If I had inserted drills, I would have gone that route to open it up.
Mazatrol is the best, QTN 200 with 640T from late 90's and must say it's friendliest system for panel programming of all systems from that era 🧡 Just the thought of returning back to G-codes terrifies me👻
Could you do a video on writing a program that calls up a subprogram and uses arguments? Example: drill and threading a hole with a single edge thread mill in a vertical mill. Same size thread in different locations.
Just a bit confused on the tool shape...on the 2nd part you used a general-edge 35 deg tool. To cut that part requires a rather odd boring bar. So how does that work?
@@mazatroltipsandtricks6816 OK thanks. I'm surprised the turning tool doesn't rub on the backside as it makes the undercut corner, but maybe it just clears.
Hello. First of all, I apologize for any mistakes in writing, but I write in Translator. I learned a lot from your videos and they helped me many times. I have a Mazak QT10N (unfortunately without powered tools). I have a question: When I make corrections to the tool, do I have to check the program every time (check continue) or is it not necessary? Regards
@@mazatroltipsandtricks6816 Thank you very much. Because what I meant was that if the program is long and I raise the knife by 0.02 mm, do I have to recalculate the program. Because he often makes ready-made details. For two programs. First the first program, workpiece rotation and the second program. And it's always time gained without check continue

Thanks for the compliment. I will keep making more videos.
I have two live tools if you can use them not sure how to send you pics they are free
Thanks for the new content! You're a big help. Appreciate you showing me better ways to do things. Keep up the great work sir!!
Thanks for the compliment.
Please keep uploading videos, there are very few videos that teach programming Mazak
Thanks for the encouragement. I will.
hey man just wanna say i appreciate your content
Thanks for the compliment.
Awesome videos as always, thank you so much for sharing.
Thanks for watching. I appreciate it.
Welcome back! Glad to have another of your great tutorials.
Thanks. I need to make them more often than I have been doing. I appreciate you guys watching.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge to us, I appreciate it very much !!! You are the good teacher, Thank you so much.
Thanks for the compliment.
How do use the facing function to do an internal taper?
Thank you so much for the mazatrol content. I have learned valuable information.

Se te estrañaba 😎💪🏿
Great video❤
Very thankful
You're welcome.

Thanks for watching over there..

Please do a program on milling a square as to milling a hex.
I can do that. Thanks for the suggestion.
Could you do a video on writing a program that calls up a subprogram and uses arguments? Example: drill and threading a hole with a single edge thread mill in a vertical mill. Same size thread in different locations.
Sorry my old machine does not have the ability to do sub programs like the newer controls.
Can you do a video on Bar Face and Bar In , but the highlighted ones?
Sure thing. Thanks for the suggestion.
Long time.
Please uploaded programming tutorial milling in cnc lathe
I have some videos on milling in the Mazak lathe. Did you want to see something specific?
@@mazatroltipsandtricks6816 yes i want,make a contour in axis ZC
Thank you
@@nurnur-ju6ep Got it. I can do that. Thanks.
@@mazatroltipsandtricks6816 for example like this ua-cam.com/video/xIpGFJTF5pM/v-deo.htmlsi=lJIhHEPD0aYAHN_8 but from top axis
Can you make a video about gear machining? Thanks
No. My machine does not have that capability.

And Hello from the UK.
Just a bit confused on the tool shape...on the 2nd part you used a general-edge 35 deg tool. To cut that part requires a rather odd boring bar. So how does that work?
36 degree diamond turning tool mounted parallel to Z axis. Nothing special.
@@mazatroltipsandtricks6816 OK thanks. I'm surprised the turning tool doesn't rub on the backside as it makes the undercut corner, but maybe it just clears.

@@kulas108 performing check continue is the safest way when learning Mazatrol to prevent mistakes but not necessary.

@@kulas108 you do not need to program check if you are only adjusting wear offsets.
Please across flat milling process 60mm length
Milling on the face or OD?
Can you do a example how to program standard taps...I can't figure it out
I have two videos on tapping. Have you seen them?
Could you pls make a video on knurling and what tool to use ? Thx
I have a knurling video already.
What tool should I buy ?
Hi great video. can you show please how to program a profile casting. In order to not cut a lot of air passes.Thanks.
Sure thing.
What year is the machine?
1986
