Hi,
Does anybody have experience with a Renishaw NC3 tool probe?
We have just bought a 2nd hand Haas VF2 (2006 model), which has what looks like the tool setter retro fitted.
It seems to work fine for probing tools, but always wants to run the spindle (at around 3000rpm). This isn't a problem for most things, but I was hoping to set up the haimer part probe with the setter too and I don't want to spin it at 3000rpm.
I had a look at the probing macros, but there didn't seem to be a simple way of disabling the spindle.
Does anyone have experience in this? The more modern Haas control seems to have probing settings in the tool offset table. However my offset table only has length, diameter and no. of flutes.
TIA
