I bought two used Hurco TM6 lathes with Win Max controls on them, they both came from the same place and I was told they were identical. We have had one set up and running for a few months and just got the other on line.
We program all our jobs in master cam and I have no desire to learn or have my guys learn Hurco programing. The first machine runs our NC programs fine with a few tweaks. The second machine we just got up and running wants to use E work offsets not G54....We finally got it to run our code but cant get it to run a threading cycle. We have tried G32, G33 feed rates called E and F nothing works. I am not a fan of canned threading cycles but will do about anything at this point to get these parts out.
We are threading .6875-20 thread in aluminum .300 long.
I am hoping one of you Hurco guys can help with and example thread or a large caliber hand gun. At this point I need it.
Thanks
Ron
