Drilling Holes with Live Tooling in OneCNC Lathe Expert - CAM Training 14

In this training video, we will continue applying tool paths to our part geometry in OneCNC Lathe Expert. Today, we will focus on drilling eight holes on the face of the part using live tooling machining. Let's get started!
Key Topics Covered:
Initial Setup and Geometry Adjustment:
Switching between subspindle and main spindle layers.
Adjusting tool paths to avoid machining areas already processed by the main spindle.
Repicking paths for roughing operations to ensure accuracy.
Creating Geometry for Holes:
Creating a new layer for the holes to maintain organized geometry.
Using the extract surface edges and extract an edge commands to create geometry.
Verifying hole dimensions using OneCNC’s measurement tools.
Drilling Operation Setup:
Ensuring proper C-axis and face Z values are set.
Using the drill single command to apply a drill operation to the selected holes.
Defining and selecting the appropriate tool for the operation.
Specifying tool parameters such as turret position, spindle speed, feed rate, tool holder, and overall length.
Setting Clearances and Depths:
Configuring Z clearances, plunge clearances, material Z top, and final Z depth.
Choosing between machine cycles and automatic custom cycles for drilling operations.
Setting up a G83 deep hole drilling cycle with appropriate peck amounts.
Simulating the Tool Path:
Defining the stock for simulation purposes using the round bar option.
Previewing and analyzing the tool path simulation to ensure proper drilling operations.
Rotating, zooming in, and out during simulation to get a clear view of the process.
