Once again the lathes are slammed with work and we need to make some threaded hardware for one of our products.
So here is my plan...saw slugs, fixture and threadmill 10 parts with a male thread OP10 and another 10 female thread OP20 at the same time. It just occurred to me that I would need 2 offsets (normally do OP10 in the lathe bar feeding) but a quick glance at the tool table in the Okuma P300 control I only see one radius offset available?
Haven't had the time yet to grab a manual but have to think is doable
Any quick tips?
