Haas NGC Control - Basic Function - Step by Step Guide

Today we cover the basic functions that every new user needs to know about the Haas Next Generation Control

[@sprngrdave]

Thanks for the video. I ran a pre 1999 Haas operating system for years. When I started a New job with this new controls, I was a bit lost. Thanks for the update

[@leonhill8447]

Thanks for this video Jason. It's been a couple years since I've run a Haas. Looking like I'll be running one again in a week or two, this was a great refresher on where the common buttons are.

[@jftracing241]

Hey Jason , great content . I just got my all new Haas vf2 ssyt last week ! The haas technician did not teach me about editing the program , so you realy toucht me something with this video Please keek content like this comming!

[@rexmundi8154]

You were very helpful. Right on par with the Haas Tip of the day. Thanks!

[@artreina971]

Bro, you nailed it! I subscribed!

[@yaroslavartiushenko637]

Thanks a lot for the video! Was really helpful.

[@MrTomkaeding]

I like that👍👍👍. Thank you for breaking it down.

[@nasrahmed6236]

You are great thanks

[@mearlinbixler4249]

we need more tutorial like this, do you have anymore that can be watched.great job.

[@benbixel3252]

Thank you

[@andrewsember6393]

good job Boss

[@evanorner]

I'm in school for CNC and it is really hard for me to grasp the programming and operating. I haven't even tried the HAAS Lathes yet.

G codes float in my brain making me wacko

[@donaldscott6231]

All that 'N-code' is distracting, its weird seeing these machines setup with a probe and off-setter, im used to doing all of it manually on these same machines, single block is a good way to make sure you dont crash

[@dymensional9012]

Never skip the M6 line that’s a crash waiting to happen.

[@NerdlyCNC]

the control reads everything before a restart

[@dford344]

I would never trust one of their machines.

[@sebastiantaylor2600]

Why?

[@dford344]

@@sebastiantaylor2600 I had one of their new machine in my shop. When they came to set it up. The table was .0015” on dial indicator and then the level showed off another .0015”. The tech said he would come back the next day and shim it. I know you can’t shim a warped cast table. Then told the dealer I didn’t want this machine. The dealer and factory said they won’t replace it. Then I said wrong answer. I’ve had customers that wanted programming for them. I found their machines were .0015” to .003” slack in them. I have a 1998 Okuma for 23 years and I can still machine airspace parts to .00015” accurate. And my Okuma dealer has beverages turned me down when I asked for help, Whitehall has only been a few times. I’ve also learned over the years that hundreds on people around the country tell haas are only built to last 5 years, then they will started to get loose. And the ones are rust buckets. I don’t believe in screwing a customer, so I make the best I can do. I hope this explained why I’ll never trust a company like haas and it’s deals when I was trying to make a very big investment for my future.

Dude, I think you had to much coffee. Slow your roll , people are trying to understand what your doing and we cant do that if your moving at warp speed.

[@NerdlyCNC]

:) maybe just hit pause! ha ha. have a good one

[@markterryberry4477]

Nice. Great walkthrough of a ton of the basics in one video.

[@ruftime]

That was a nice primer for me, thank you! Happy Holidays!

[@garygriffin3114]

Hello Jason, Thanks for sharing. HAAS controllers seem so friendly and I always knew they was designed by people who ran the machines. I have my doubts about the old Fanucs I have used. Keep it up.

[@ASRCivicFerio]

Awesome video! On my pre NGC Haas vf3ss, to be extra safe I will run graphics first to make sure there isn't any program errors and then use single block to make sure tool and work offset are set correcty before it starts cutting. Keep up the videos!! 👍👍👍

[@Musicalbullet]

Thanks for these videos! I will be getting a haas soon,so this is very helpful 👍🏻

[@JacobNeitling]

Awesome. This more of this basic function please. I want to learn more of this because I cant find direct access to a haas so this is for now only way to learn

[@EZ_shop]

Very cool Jason. Thanks for sharing. Merry Xmas.

[@revolveperformance]

I just got my new VF-2 set up a week ago. Ran my first code on Saturday, which was my first time ever running a VMC. I'm mostly going to machine prototypes and small series, as I don't do this for a living, more on a hobby basis. These videoes you make are very helpful, so keep them coming! :-) I like your honest straight forward style. The HAAS NGC control is as you say really easy to use, even for a complete newb like me. Would you do a video comparing HSM off /on ? I'm going to experiment a bit with it during the holidays on some 3D paths. You get 200 trial hours (I guess you got the option though) with the machine :-) Andreas

[@LutherDesigns]

Great video thank you!

[@owensparks5013]

Realy liking your content 👍

[@kacheric]

Jason, great video. One thing you didn't touch on was tool length offset. That could be a video on its own, explaining how the length probe relates to the part probe which allowed you to run preset tools once you had set the "z" on the part. I'm an old school guy that's used to touching tools off on the part with a shim but with the probing systems that Haas and others sell it has become so much easier.

[@NerdlyCNC]

Eric Kachadoorian thanks Eric. I’ll make it happen.

[@advancedretention9859]

This is awesome!!!

[@axisfiveraxisfiver5844]

good vid, its quick if you look for the H code when starting from a certain op

[@rafihussain]

Thanks. Please more videos for learning. Even a future school, training academy. May be . Good luck. Great video

[@keithlane4343]

Good video. Lots of ways to accomplish the same thing.

[@anthonyjones657]

Good job man!

[@Daniil_0092]

Hhhey)) good video my friend!) Hello from spb, Russia

[@cesarmata9062]

Hi!!! What is your CAM Software? And what do you think about CAMWorks, HyperMill and PowerMill?

[@brento2752]

Always enjoy your videos. Would a Super Mini Mill fit through a standard 8 foot high by 8 foot wide garage door?

[@NerdlyCNC]

dont think so.....

[@rcbroadcast8207]

Great Video! But one thing, I was told by the hfo thats its not recommended to run programms direct from the usb. In my case i copy the progamm to the internal memory and run it from there. Its much more safer, especially if you are going fast with complicated contours.

[@NerdlyCNC]

RCBroadcast our production programs run from the control. I know lots of guys that run from usb. But I agree it probably better to run from memory.

[@rcbroadcast8207]

@@NerdlyCNC thumbs up, keep up your good work!

[@adamwhite3820]

Good video! Do you use the network share for your everyday programs?

[@NerdlyCNC]

nope...i'm not a job shop...I transfer projuction files from usb to the conrol where they live basically for ever. tools 1-15 are standarrdized

[@Eggsr2bcrushed]

I still love Mitsubishi controllers.
