Lots of milling on NLX2500SY

Machining large hole in side of part on DMG Mori NLX in our component factory

[@MikeYurbasovich]

That is some nice programming work. I see efficiency and smart choice of tools for the part being made. Looks like you know how to make money.

[@tylergibson7226]

Nice programming and setup 👍

[@winsumartmachinerygroup]

Amazing Works , You did good job !

[@yens]

impressive, I use an NLX daily so its cool to see a different type of setup and part being made. good to see how close everything gets, the nut on the er32 capto tool would have been mm's from the chuck, as they say: clearance is clearance. thumbs up from me

[@MolesNoMoreEurekaMO]

Guys at our shop just shake their head at me. I say that exact thing….clearance is clearance. 😂 I run a Doosan 2600 SYII.

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

1mm is as good as a mile in my book.

[@MolesNoMoreEurekaMO]

@@PBMachineTechLtd I don’t start getting nervous until my scale won’t slide between the tool and the chuck.

[@sebastianlingua7720]

Same here dude, working on two nlx2000 with barfeed and one with automation💪

[@jimsvideos7201]

Nice finish, whatever it is you're making there.

[@ksanalyticalsystems2438]

Very nice work! The boring head in a radial live tool is particularly cool to see. Not sure what that single insert drill/boring bar tool was though.

[@ArjunVirdi1]

The "single insert drill/boring bar tool" you're referring to is actually an indexable drill. People use these larger diameter drills to bore because they are rigid enough to rough a bore. This typically saves set up and programming time as they reuse the tool without having to use a boring bar.

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

That tool is from Ceratizits eco cut range of tools. It can turn, drill and bore. Very useful for certain operations

[@ksanalyticalsystems2438]

Thanks. I make a lot of shallow axial pockets and often use an end mill (live tool), but it's very slow compared to that.

[@poly_hexamethyl]

Just curious....why do you drill a small hole and then mill it larger, rather than using a large drill almost as big as the finished hole diameter?

[@PaddySheeper]

Cutting forces are much higher with a larger drill. You will have high radial forces, which can relate to a problem. Also, its not that easy to clamp a big drill like that. Aside from that, you have to consider that the spindle for live tooling, maybe is not strong enough to power a big drill like that.

[@kevind1865]

What's the tool life like on the endmill you used to open up the hole? Have you tried a high feed mill with a helix ramp in?

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

On this job it was minimum approx 300 holes, not sure of the exact number. Haven't tried a high feed mill on this, we know this mill works well for us so havent had the need to try alternatives yet.

[@kevind1865]

@@PBMachineTechLtd That's great tool life for such a long engagement cut on a live tool. Chasing perfection is usually a waste of time. Great video.

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

This particular mill works very well for us. It surprised me a little with that life too because we usually only use it in the milling machines.

[@hardyharhar801]

is that chatter on the endmill? im not familiar with this type of work

[@patrik_k04]

Yes it chatters quite a bit while it's milling in this video, but it's only rough milling, so the surface finish isn't important. 😊

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

Yes its chatter. Its not the most stable set up and mill is cutting at about 100% flute length. But its not causing an issue on surface finish or with tool life. Just a bit annoying to listen to.

[@TheFastfatkid]

Why do you move back to center between facing and turning ?

[@CncFrezar]

Very nice work

[@himanshutripathi9832]

Sir ya kon si cnc hai jo Turring and vertical milling centre ka combination hai?

[@artcnc8089]

Does the program used use the Mastercam x9

[@Thoma5380]

That endmill is suffering, do something pls

[@faroukmastercam4395]

Nice work can you gives us what the name of tools you set

[@box420]

Thoes insert drills are made kennametal we use the same ones and the smaller sumo drill and osg drills.

[@Yuuki1942]

nice video. Whats the setup time?

[@rogerbean393]

WNMG seems to be your favourite when facing and turning o/d. Very interesting , keep the videos coming please. What material was that ?

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

WNMG has proven best solution for our needs. The extra cutting data that can be had with a CNMG or SNMG doesn't on cost per edge. At a certain point clamping strength and machine power limits how hard we can run the 4 sided inserts, which is only a little over what the WNMG can take. Material is S355

[@jimhimesjr]

Nice work. Not sure how well that parting setup works with that blade hanging way out and very little coolant getting to the cutting edge. There are much better solutions out there nowadays. Iscar jet crown/tang f grip for one. Cool seeing boring with a rotary live tool. 👍🏻

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

Its hard to see in this clip but the coolant is feed through the blade. It exits over the tool to wash away swarf and directly above and blow the inserts cutting edge. We part off Ø90mm to centre daily will this set up problem free.

[@900stx7]

Do you normally run coolant ? Did you run it dry for the video ?

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

Coolant is only off for the purpose of the video. If the coolant was on in this machine you wouldnt see anything.

[@tommysoe]

What software do you use, sir?

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

This is a combination of manual programming, CELOS & Fusion 360

Purple chips ! No no no !! M08 !

[@bobmac9070]

Yes yes yes, depending on the material and it might be a high alloy steel, if you climb milling (which they’re doing a helical interpolation all the heat will go into the chip. And depending on the material you can have a straw color from Stainless, to blue or Purple from Tool and Die Steel to just a shiny chrome color. I was a tooling engineer for 35 years.

[@bobmac9070]

Mostly turning, facing, drilling boring, then “some” milling .

[@TheMotosnake]

Okay mill guy 😂

[@bobmac9070]

@@TheMotosnake well as a Application Engineer for a major carbide company and yes I was a milling specialist. The entire cycle time for milling was about 1.17 out of a 6.35 cycle time. So yes not a lot of milling time lol 🤨😆

[@jakhamar55]

Oh my god, turn on the coolant when you are drilling. You want to fry a tool just keep it up.

[@PBMachineTechLtd]

Coolant is off to show the operation. Dont worry, the drill worked fine for hundreds more parts after this.
