Anyone have a slick way to position the spindle to pull hex on a machine with no M19 or spindle orientation? Not crazy about the store bought pullers claiming to pull hex. Can't turn the hex off of the front to make it round then pull.
Its 1 3/8" aluminum hex.
Anyone know the spindle orientation option parameter for a Fanuc 18i-T? Isn't this is a fairly basic feature of a lathe? Are the chances good this could be turned on without different firmware or additional hardware?
A machine that will synchronize the spindle to thread has to know where the spindle rotational position is, don't it? Thanks...
