    Roboform 400 Manuals and Software

    I'm doing my best to trace the machine back to the original owner, but it's looking pretty doubtful. I've been told the software isn't that expensive to purchase a backup, but I'm finding it near impossible to get in contact with charmilles. I'm hoping someone with the same machine will reach...

    Roboform 400 Manuals and Software

    Hello, I purchased a Agie Charmilles Roboform 400, 1996. I just got it powered up today but I now have no idea where to go from here, the display shows a bunch of hex, so I believe I need to load software onto the machine. Does anyone have a copy of software, and does anyone have a manual, I'm...

    Who and What is this Boring Bar?

    Hi Mike, you'd be very surprised how these capto's differ between each other, the guy who has these tools had around 150 tools in the same machine, wear patterns were all different. In general each lobe has two contact spots and therefore 6 in total, so long I get the taper right that's the...

    Who and What is this Boring Bar?

    Hi Guys, I have been looking for a de-vibe bar for a while now and really need one for my current job. I have used both Sandvik and Iscar de-vibe bars when working for people in the past so am fairly familiar with what they look like and parts numbers, I just need a deal since I've recently...

    Stub ACME thread insert questions

    Thanks Ken! I'm curious, why would the OD root width change with the diameter? I am doing some oilfield stuff, 8SA seems to be fairly common and that is what I have chosen to go with, the customer is open to design. I have just finished the parts using standard SA inserts from Sandvik, and the...

    Stub ACME thread insert questions

    Hello everyone! I've started doing a bunch of work that uses stub ACME threads, which is something I'm fairly new to. All of the parts are open to my own design, but customer specifies stub ACME threads. All of my inserts are genuine Sandvik and do a great job. Now I use a full profile insert...

    Anyone know this UCM BTR Manufacturer or Model

    Ok, so I have the results ! This may help anyone else out too. SWB2 has nothing to do with Baud rate, it is the serial transfer settings. SWB1 sets to baud rate. 00000000 is 1200 00000001 is 2400 00000011 is 9600 00000111 is 19200 I can't believe I never noticed before but when you press the...

    Anyone know this UCM BTR Manufacturer or Model

    Thanks Bug for the reply, I do have the manual for the machine, a 3000G in this case and I have played around with the parameters a bit, I did a full electronics restoration so had to get familiar with them. As far as I can tell there is no where specifying the Baud limit on the control itself...

    Anyone know this UCM BTR Manufacturer or Model

    Hi, I have just finished restoring an old Matsuura 710V, 1980's model, the very last thing is getting it to read code properly. So I have finally got my post-processor working and can run a program but it is very jumpy. I have a UCM BTR board that takes serial on a drip feed from my computer...
