For the 5 axis Machine sim have you ever Felt the need to add vericut or camplete ? It is enough the SolidCam ontegrated Machine sim for 5 axis collision avoidance?
It is interesting to arrange the workpieces at the zero point. You can try it with a D40 bearing and moving only on the Y axis. Just an idea, but I see that video is several years old..... :) Great job! (Google translate)
The only video on generating G-code for Hurco. Is there any chance to share the postprocessor? I have access to Hurco vmx10U 2008year which is not in use. Tried to run it with fusion360 but unsuccessful.
@@MooreCNC Thanks for reply and I meen if I have post for solidcam I can use it. I have solidcam installed. Tried to modify other posts to fit but unsuccessful.
horsehoe thought of this as well, but was worried the cross drill would walk or snap because it is carbide... the first hole might act as a drill bushing, but the end hole was .453" and I thought that was a big depth with a .125" carbide drill for the cross drill. You could be right though. Thank you !!!
@@MooreCNC then you would drill with a center cutting endmill or a drill mill. Anytime you have crossed holes this is the best way to avoid walking. Typically you'd want to do this on a lathe with live tooling and sub spindle cause you would be chasing center with the fluctuation of stock tolerance just holding one side.
Thanks for sharing. Why would you use solidworks and solidcam when hurco advirtizez that you don't need cad or cam to run there machine? Kind regards LeRoy
Hi Interesting way of looking at the job Was it actually a production job or just something for the channel ? Maybe thread mill the holes in ends if swaft build up on tap an issue
@superal 100 , Thread mill was what we wanted to do, but customer needed 1.5" of full threads, and there wasn't any threadmills with that long of a cut available. we could have ground something, but thought it would be too much cycle time anyway. On another note, thank you so much for your helpful comment on the trepanning video. I checked out the channel you recommended and was very impressed by that guy's work! I am not sure where your comment went in the other video, but i lost it. I think I lost it because the video was set as "safe for kids". I did not realize that meant it disabled comments. Learning everyday!
@@superal1008, you are correct. Form taps (roll taps) work extremely well for blind holes, if the material will allow it. I run form taps in the following materials with no issues: any mild steels (1018, 1144 ect.), mild stainless steels (mainly 303), brass, copper, and 6061 aluminum. Worth nothing, form taps use a different size drill than traditional taps. Example, a 1/4-20 form tap you drill a 0.228" diameter hole. Not 0.201" that you would use for a traditional tap.
@@superal1008 Yes , we did buy some roll taps to try out! The minor diameter on the print is held pretty tight, and I was warned by customer that it is hard to control minor diameter with roll taps. Customer also gave me some good advise that form taps put a lot more torque on the part and don't work the best in 1018 eithers. Regardlesssss, we are scientists and want to try it out, but we figured we would wait until the end of the run and do it in some extra pieces. Will keep you posted, thanks for so much input and help!
Remove the spot drill and use thru coolant solid carbide. Will cut your runtime in half. Get rid of that program to locate the parts. Put studs below the parts that are milled to your part zero so when you load the part just make sure they hang past the stud. Boom 💥 your parts per hour just trippled
no TSC :-( , machine is bare bones, no probing or TSC... makes you appreciate it when you have them though! This machine has taught us not having TSC saves you some $$ at the sacrifice of more cycle time.
Great video! Can’t wait for the next one! Especially the new Spartan Axe!

Did they make a special post for the Hurco?

Nice video. That positioning-trick is sort of "too simple to be thought of" ;)

We use solidcam so our post would be totally different than fusion
@@MooreCNC Thanks for reply and I meen if I have post for solidcam I can use it. I have solidcam installed. Tried to modify other posts to fit but unsuccessful.
Great video. Only change I would make is. Drill the end holes, then drill cross holes, and finish up with the tap on the end holes.
horsehoe thought of this as well, but was worried the cross drill would walk or snap because it is carbide... the first hole might act as a drill bushing, but the end hole was .453" and I thought that was a big depth with a .125" carbide drill for the cross drill.

@@MooreCNC, carbide drill, I would be worried as well, and probably went the way you did.

Some People like cam better. And not everything is possible with the conversational programming without alot of hastle.
Nice job. I love the raw stock adjustment idea 👍 i also try and make videos on My channel from My shop
Do you use a gopro?

Look forward to what you show next
Just a though
Another thing to try could be cold forming roll taps
These work good in blind holes
👍

I hate my job can I intern remote?
Lol, do you do machining?
MooreCNC nah I did work at a HASS and tsugami dealership
No TSC?

@@MooreCNC i Will never get a machine without probe or tsc forsure.
