Never seen or heard of that before in my life, but that's pretty close to what I'm looking for Thanks! -

Precision turntable
Trying to design a measuring fixture for some of our products which are basically 5<10" ID x 10<16" OD rings. We need to rest each part flat on a fixture and spin it 1 full revolution while we measure the runout/flatness/parallelism(?) at the periphery on both top and bottom. Our goal for these... -

ROBOFORMING: The Future of Metalworking?
Could be useful for pre-roughing in the shape of molds for aerospace tools out of materials that are expensive and/or hard to fabricate and machine. We looked into this about 10 years ago as a substitute for welding up and then machining down slabs of Invar to make 787 fuselage tools. Was cost...- GiroDyno

Servo bar accuracy?
I'll see if there's a variable for the V axis load, if there is you can advance the V axis incrementally while reading that value and stop it when it spikes. That is how I run our subspindle for transfers vs moving to specific B positions, which allows me to compensate for variations in part... -

Servo bar accuracy?
I agree we are probably introducing some error with our workholding; we are not using a dead length collet, rather some old pie jaws. Even so the feeder holds the bar pretty close to position while the chuck is closing so it shouldn't lose much. I take a .025" facing pass on each push and it... -

Servo bar accuracy?
In current commands I zero out all the push variables, and hit origin to reset everything I run G104 Q5 with a reference bar of known length to calibrate the bar feeder Then G104 Q4 to load a bar (I measure and record the length of this bar and all other bars before they are loaded into the... -

Servo bar accuracy?
It is a 2014 ServoBar 300 IIRC, I set parameter 316 (FEED INCHES PER MINUTE) to 12500 instead of the default 25000 to try and slow down the measuring feed I will also try to have all bars are cut to the same lengths in the future, we had a bunch of different length bars cut +/- 3.0" which I'm... -

Servo bar accuracy?
Thanks for the confirmation! I ran several bars this morning without intervention. All the bars measured incorrectly right from the start but were all within +/- 0.25" but by the end of the bar some were off by as much as 3.0". All of the bars ended up short on the initial push, so I scrapped... -

Servo bar accuracy?
Does anybody have experience with the Servo Bar bar feeder and can you attest to its accuracy/repeatability? I have been having issues with the feeder performing double pushes, under feeding and even loading a whole new extra bar while there is an existing 2-3' long bar loaded. All these... -

Sample Servo Bar program for multiple parts
I'm dumb I forgot to reset the counter for the parts cut per push back to zero I changed the end of the program to this END1 (END LOOP) G00 G53 X-10. G00 G53 Z-12. G52 Z0. (RESET WORK SHIFT) #120= 0 (RESET PARTS PER FEED COUNTER) G105 (BAR FEED) GOTO123 % -

Sample Servo Bar program for multiple parts
I should say that when I first setup the bar I set the push values to .0001. I run G105 Q4 to load a bar and prepare to set the reference length. I then jog the bar flush to the chuck face, and run G105 Q2, since my initial push is essentially zero I start at the chuck face, the program then... -

Sample Servo Bar program for multiple parts
I'm trying to set up a program to make washers where operators can enter the thickness as a variable so we can make X thickness washers. I want the bar feeder to push the bar a fixed initial length (2.5xD) and then cut as many parts as possible out of that while leaving some clearance with the... -

Missing pull stud, oops
You can buy a replacement from Haas for cheaper than anywhere else I've seen them. https://www.haascnc.com/haas-tooling/measuring_inspection/edge_center_finders/09-0034.html?op=/haas-tooling.html&oh=measuring_inspection It might burst into flames if you load it into a Speedio though.- GiroDyno

Haas Auxilary accessory wiring
Maybe you can just replace the existing beeper with a louder one? I use these on on my homebrew autodoors, I actually had to tape some foam over it to tone it down a bit. https://www.mcmaster.com/56965T24/ -

Advice for 3 Phase with Brother S500X2 (residential garage)
I saw in another thread that PP has an option to install a larger DC bus that will better handle the regen, you just have to request it when ordering a new converter, but it also sounds like its available as a field retrofit. Forgive my ignorance, but it sounds like people are running a PP...- GiroDyno

Haas Auxilary accessory wiring
You are correct, hot lead from power source to COM and then from NO to your device. You can run power to your device directly through the M25 relay, or you can use M25 to trigger a higher capacity relay that powers your device. I generally power my devices directly but they are all solenoids to... -

If other people were able to get posts modded to work with their machines they might be willing to share them with you, this is one of the benefits from the old hobby/community side of Fusion. But without posting a sample of code and the alarms nobody can even attempt to help you. You probably... -

https://tenor.com/97BN.gif "Not being worth a crap" is not quite specific enough to help you solve any problems you may be running into. What about it doesn't work for you? Have you tried asking for help in their forums? I agree lathe CAM in Fusion is not as "easy" or "powerful" as mill CAM...
