TAIG 5C THREADING

[@spencerstromberg]

How in the world is the tool lining up every time with no encoders? Does it just rely on the timing it naturally has between passes? I have 2 taig mills and I want to get a lathe. The mills are excellent machines; I run mine 3-4 hours a day for production work and never had a problem

It uses a Digital Index Signal Processor kzbin.info/www/bejne/foSynqh4f8h6eLc

Nice video and great explanation!

[@jjjherzog]

Thank you very much :)

I'm interested in the threading tool used in this video. How are you holding the threading indexable insert?

[@jjjherzog]

See if this helps..... kzbin.info/www/bejne/nJ6Qq3-Nh6-Dgdk

Amazing

6:45 metric version Major dia(nominal) - 0-65*pitch*2 =minor dia and its match if tool measured correct. with inch size i havent never get it correct. allways need measure. in metric i know its in midle of tolerance LOL

I'm thinking of purchasing a lathe for a project the big part of it is internal threads on some plastic rods OD 1/2 or 3/4 with 5/16 threads 3/4 deep Wondering if I could use a single point cutter for a mill to cut these on the lathe.

[@jjjherzog]

Any internal threading tool will work. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aIbbgZiZq79qe5I

Awesome!

[@jjjherzog]

Thank you :)

Would you use the same speed to cut 16TPI?

[@jjjherzog]

I would go half as fast.

[@jjjherzog]

After some thought..... If your machine is set for 180 rpm (inches per minute) The same speed would be fine.

[@mikhailmalamud9867]

@@jjjherzog I have same machine as you. I think my lowest pulley is ~450 RPM

[@christophervargasschebesta3752]

The material you are mecanis is steel or iron?

[@jjjherzog]

Steel

Encoder? This video you posted link is broken.

[@jjjherzog]

Look at this video, kzbin.info/www/bejne/rl7GY6SafqqmqMk At 2:27 you can see the steel button in the aluminum ring the signal processor uses to time the thread cuts. Contact microproto.com for processor info. I don't know why the other video is not available, but I'm looking in to it.

Threading tool starting distance IS mandatory. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJzPqaeMlpaKgJY

7:45 you dont know pitch haha. use metric its pitch you not need calculate it 0.04166666666666666666666666666667 its so inacurite. metric if have 2 pitch then its 2mm EXACT LOL so 3/8-24 allmost equal 10x1 and G1/8
