Peter, That was an awesome example and explanation of material stresses and how they affect the parts. It also shows how difficult it is to predict the stresses in the material. That thing really turned into a banana on you, good thing you had enough stock left to true it back up. That material is $$$$. Adapting your order of operations from a rigidity based strategy to a stress base is key. Some parts we make when the billets are cut from the bar, a sample needs to be sent to the lab to verify material properties all the way down the bar. Very much enjoy your videos.

some Fanuc controls or atleast the one ive used, "oi-md", had a "manual intervention and return" function. very similar to what you explained in this video. an extremely helpful function if working with tough materials and using an insert tool. simply press feed hold then coolant off, go to handle mode, turn off the spindle and jog the tool to a suitable location to change the insert. then once done turn the spindle and coolant back on then go to memory mode and press cycle start. the machine will feed back to the last machining position and carry on. i was completely unaware of this function until recently and thought you had to start from the beginning of the program. be wary though that the machine will feed back to the original point in a straight line and if this is not considered the machine may crash into the workpiece!

This re-positioning in cycle is even more easy in Heidenhain. It remembers your movements and does them reverse if you want if you go back in position. Save lot's of time instead of hand programming the movement positions. I use every day Heidenhain, Mazatrol, Fanuc, Okuma & Siemens Simatic and they all have this. I find personally Heidenhain most easy and fastest system in re-positioning in cycle. PS. Please keep on going with sharing your great video's and tips

Great video, Peter! FYI, there are machines that have features similar to the TPS feature that you've shown here. I've run a couple styles of "teach-in lathes" that have a "tool inspection" feature. Typically it's something along the lines of Feedhold>handwheel out>do what you need to do (clear chips, check insert...)>handwheel back in to within .200" on both axis>start spindle and press go. As far as stresses go, on some parts I've done before I've actually had to drill and rough ID and rough OD, and then take them out and leave them for a little while (overnight or a couple days depending on what's going on) before going back and finishing. Again, great video!

My experience with the 'EN' series steel is that you have to turn the Job around and Turn it from both ways right until the finishing cut ie: EN 8 to EN 14 B . . . and many other hybrid Steels do Stress the same way. I understand that in a CNC machine, turning the job around after every cut would drive the Turning Quote or Price right up !

The problem of stress reminds me of a time in the last shop where I worked when we had a problem with making flat aluminium test coupons, a job which the shop did on-and-off for a couple years without much issue. They were 8"x10" plates of 6061 aluminium which were machined flat with a 12-inch shell mill on a vacuum , taking off about half the plate thickness. One day we had two batches of plates where several of them would come out of the machine bowed. It came down to the fact the plates were machined only from one side, and enough was being removed that the internal stresses were causing the plates to bow after removing them from the fixture.

Hurco controls these days are picking up where mazatrol left off. They'll do all kinds of rest machining functions like this tool return point thing along with fancy canned cycles such as peck tapping. The basic "interrupt" button on new hurcos is far and away better than feed hold. Interrupt automatically retracts the tool, turns off the spindle, kills coolant. Just remember to define the tool not to retract z if you're using a t-slot cutter or slitting saw ;) I'm mostly a mill guy with a little bit of smaller live tool lathe experience. Sub spindle hand offs, cross holes, face bolt patterns, milling hexes n such. Just doing the basics when shit starts to get to be too much like milling for our hard working lathe guys.

Yup, the midcycle manual is like others have said in most controllers. Heidenhain I'm familiar with, it reverses the order of manual operations when resuming to cut and it also has the option of starting midcycle by precalculating how it got to the position where it is (think power outage). 5-axis can also retract along Z' for example after power outage during drilling in an angle. One fun in Heidenhain is also manual override during a cycle, you can reposition some axis with the handwheel while the cycle is running :) Charmilles EDM's also have midcycle manual option, just hit STOP, hit MANUAL/PENDANT, and you can then either manual position it or hit RETRACT and it automatically moves to the previous starting position. Very nice when you want to check how it is going or check the electrode or manually flush the area more.

My Mitsubishi horizontal mill has a Meldas control (buy the way all Mazaks are really Mitsubishi Meldas controls under the Mazatrol ). Anyway if you go into MDI and enter a tapping cycle in incremental mode but don't cancel it with a G80 you can manually tap holes with the hand wheel. Like this you have to give it a spindle speed lets say 100 RPM than a G91 so the code would look like this G91; S100; G84 F.100; Z-1.0; for a tap pitch of .100. Now run that at close to Zero return with the spindle. Let it finish than put it into the handle jog mode. The Z axis will now be synchronized with the spindle (at the feed in the tapping cycle) when you jog with the hand wheel. You can jog it back and forth just like you hand tap. It will remain effective until you push reset. I have not tried this on any other machines but it does work on this machine.

Where you stopped the cycle with Tool Point Save. I have to say, Hurco has a more streamlined way of doing that. Here is how it works on their VMC'S. Press Intrupt (yellow button beside auto mode.) Z axis goes to home position and spindle shuts off. Then you can jog the machine wherever you need to. Clear chips, take a measurement, whatever you need to do. Then, when you are ready to resume. Simply press Auto and Cycle Start. The machine picks up right where it left off. I would imagine, it works the same way on all of their machines.

My colleague had this Dia.90 x 2800mm bar that had to be turned to 50 and 80 for a trapezium thread and during the roughing cut he had to release the tailstock multiple times to relieve stress and tension from the long bar. It also varies from material to material. We almost rough every piece we make and then finish them all. Just for this phenomenon only.

For the TPS you explain: I first used Siemens Manual Turn on top of their 840D control (approx from 2002 or something like that) and they have an even better TPS: Just hit cycle stop and jog with the handwheel to wereever you want (spindle keeps turning until you also stop it!!) hit cycle start when you want and the control asks you how ti approach the last position in the cycle e. g. X/Z at the same time, X first then Z and so on. When we got the first Mazak (QTS200) in 2014 I was pretty annoyed with the TPS as it stops the spindle which is bad when you are not in a G0 move but in the cut. Further Heidenhain has a TPS like function as well - only our Fanuc doesn't have it.
@EdgePrecision6 жыл бұрын
The first Mazak I owned had a T32 Mazatrol . I bought the machine in the early 1990. I cant remember exactly. I will guess around 1993. Even back then the Mazatrol had this feature. Yes it would be nice if Mazak would not turn the spindle off when you go into any manual mode from auto.
@1AB09CC36 жыл бұрын
Edge Precision Awesome that it's not just me who wants the spindle to keep turning. As for older Siemens controls I have no idea when the introduced their TPS system (I also don't know how they call it in EN as my control "speaks" German) - 1993 I was merely six years old. As you know Mazaks that long you maybe also know if it's possible to set the simulation's coordinate system to not show the position of the center of the nose radius but rather the edge. This was also something really strange for me when I started using the machine.

Rich Crowell In my experience (closer to 30 years) I've learned that while the Inconel, or any nickel based alloy, have very predicable responses to tools, cutters, inserts ... As well as how they relieve their stresses, the Super Duplex SS is nothing like it. The response of cutting tools, inserts, etc both in turning and milling is very unpredictable, as well as it relieves itself from stresses. I'd say Duplex and Super Duplex are in a place by themselves, and say that Nickel alloys are, though tough, very predictable, more like Cobalt alloys, versus like any type of SS. Just my opinion, based on years of machining many different alloys with many different methods.

I milled most of it and shaped out the corner radius's left by the endmill's. I think it shows it in another video. Look at the video "Things Are Shaping Around The Shop".

Edge Precision Got it, I often approach things too complicated and probably would have shaped the entire recesses :) Do you know the technical function of the recesses?

Dude your parts look nice! Also love that lathe! I know this might not be a proper question to ask but ied love to know how much you got paid per part. Thanks very much for the video!

Nice video of a topic some don't consider until they get in trouble. I do have one unrelated question, how do you machine that interrupted thread on the ID? I can't picture it.
@EdgePrecision7 жыл бұрын
I machine the thread first than mill and shape out the key slots. I than rerun the thread tool to cut out any burs left in the thread by the shaping operation. See my video Things are shaping around the shop.

How’d you do the interruptions in the thread you show at the end? The fillets radii at the edges seem too small for the apparent depth, LxD ratio

It looks like runout to me and not distortion..are you sure the job is not moving slightly the more you ruff out?
@EdgePrecision Жыл бұрын
No, it was not run out. I ran (If I remember) around 8-10 of these parts. When the part is roughed down to the smaller neck diameter the stress in the stocks OD is relieved and causes distortion in the straightness of the bar.

What is the reason for drilling the center hole with live tooling instead of letting the turning spindle do the work?
@EdgePrecision6 жыл бұрын
I presume you are talking about milling it with the B axis at 30 degrees and rotating the C axis. I do it this way to insure it is on the exact center of rotation. I also have more freedom on the RPM with the milling spindle. The turning spindle has a Max RPM of 1600 in high range.
@1AB09CC36 жыл бұрын
Edge Precision I have no idea were 0° are for the B axis but I know I mean that axis. Hm, is the C axis in this case in the milling head? Thought it would "stay" in the turning spindle or the turning spindle would become C1 and the milling head C2 (for the rotary axis around Z). I understand the better speed range for the milling spindle, but why will it also stay better on center? I thought for that pupose it would be even better to roatate both C axis - in the milling head and the turning spindle - at least from what I've seen some deep hole drilling machines do.

How much would gravity play a roll in the run out with the amount of unsupported stick out on that part?
@EdgePrecision6 жыл бұрын
very little if you think about it. If the gravitational force is always in the same direction than it wont change run out. It could cause a very thin long part to sag farther away from the chuck. But you really shouldn't be running a part that way anyway. It could be very dangerous.

That's a big Integrex, probably the biggest I've seen but I know they make them bigger. What is the milling spindle power?
@EdgePrecision7 жыл бұрын
douro20 The milling spindle has 50 hp and the turning spindle has 60 hp. The model is a e650H 120" between centers.

What does the milled slots on the thread aid there Tony?
@EdgePrecision6 жыл бұрын
I think that the engineer couldn't have the assembly rotating a lot of turns to install the end cap. This only requires a 45 deg turn to install the end cap. Than the end gets electron beam welded around the OD to seal it off. I don't design things I just machine them to their drawings.

Never tried using tps in an iso program before. Im new to running iso tapes on my mazak, as we cut various connections on this machine, but i wondered if i can use tool suffixes in iso tapes? As in mazatrol i can define tool 4 or 4a for example, i have kenametal heads for my boring bar and need to change from my tnmg boring head to a 75 degree approach head. I have used the mdi to call the tool t0404.1. Can i use this in iso? Sorry for the long winded question.
@EdgePrecision7 жыл бұрын
Yes, In a EIA program on the Mazak the tool call outs go's like this. Tool 1A would be T1.01 Tool 1B would be T1.02 and so on. At least that's the way it works on my Mazatrol 640m Pro control. I don't think you need the prefix info like your example t0404.1 on my control T4.01 would be T4A all the other information the control would need is on the Mazatrol's tools page for that tool A(I use the Mazatrol tool setup page not the EIA tool offset page for everything except tip radius comp direction. The two interact with each other. This is kind off a complicated explanation for this. If you are interested let me know) . You would just have to change to tool A with a M6. For example I can use the same tool to turn toward the chuck and away from the chuck by just using a M6 tool change from one to the other. The tools orientation is on the tool page in the control. The machine will reorient the tool with the M6 T1.02 For tool 1B for example. Say I was turning toward the chuck with T1.01 (T1A)when finished I would move to a clearance position than command M6 T1.02 (T1B) and move in to turn away from the chuck. That is all that would be required in the program. All the other information would be in the tool setup. I hope that make sense. If not send me another question.

This type of work is more suited to something like a Niles-Simmons N20...but then that's a far more expensive machine than this.
