    Making thread plug gauge

    major is also important and tolerances are tight. Use the internal thread limits to calculate. I've never made plug gages for smaller than 1", but I'm certain the tolerances are tighter for them. My answer is based on larger metric 6h threads and you should proceed with caution, as william lynn...

    G83 peck canned cycle, doosan lynx. Can I change the point that it rapids back into the hole to?

    On a Fanuc 31i, this worked for me with 5115 for the G83 and I am assuming the 5114 is for G73. Mine was set to .005", and it wasn't causing much of a problem until today when i needed to drill out a 6-32 tap. To the OP....obviously this is a little late, but I typically drill a starter hole...

    non-functioning 1997 Deckel Maho dmu50v for sale to a good home

    I can't figure out how to edit my posts! Anyways after calling around I decided to lower the price of this to $5k. I can't sell it for lower than that. I'm in North County San Diego as stated previously.

    non-functioning 1997 Deckel Maho dmu50v for sale to a good home

    I have a 1997 DMU50v for sale, with millplus v3.20 in Vista, CA (north county San Diego). According to the timer on the back it has 13,392 hours of runtime on it. The power on timer is broken and reads 10,303. It's electronics are tired and it keeps breaking down, and I just don't have the time...

    S153 annoyance has devolved into S158 and will no longer operate

    fair enough. Although this is technically a follow up to a previous post: https://www.practicalmachinist.com/forum/threads/dmu50v-s153-errors.398445/ I'll do my best to address the complaint.

    S153 annoyance has devolved into S158 and will no longer operate

    I'm still nose deep in debt and can't justify putting more time, money and effort into it, yet. You need to be a little more descriptive, narex. Have you ever used your machine before? Did something happen before the last time you shut it down?

    2000 DMU50V Millplus won't get past I01 initialization

    This sounds an awful lot like what was happening to me earlier this year: https://www.practicalmachinist.com/forum/threads/dmu50v-s153-errors.398445/ I never got it figured out though. One thing that seemed to help for me was avoiding setup mode. abelcnc replaced a k switch to fix his. Try...

    S153 annoyance has devolved into S158 and will no longer operate

    It could be something like that. This Sunday, the ATC door didn't open all the way and it did what it does with maximum force. The random alarms with the door has been happening to me as well, since about January, sometimes with an s153 alarm, sometimes with an e130. I have a post about it...

    S153 annoyance has devolved into S158 and will no longer operate

    Hi all, My 1997 DMU50v finally stopped working for good. Last night was fine, but this morning after startup and initializing, the machine would throw an S158 alarm when I closed the door. Several restarts would give the same alarm, S158(hi res.meas.sys. input alarm). It also has an E01...

    dmu50v S153 errors

    I'm not sure if this is related to the alarms I've been getting, but I was indicating a hole and thought I would test the rigidity of the machine. I wasn't expecting any movement, but when I pushed the head in the y direction it moved quite a bit, out of the range of the indicator, which is...

    dmu50v S153 errors

    Quick update: I have been operating in normal mode and have had almost no alarms. Before I was always in setup mode. Again I don't know if this is because the deadman switch is deactivated in normal mode, or if it is because there is a check failure in setup mode somewhere.

    dmu50v S153 errors

    Thank you abelcnc, Since your response I haven't gotten an S153+ alarm. But I have gotten a couple emergency stops from the machine that I was able to clear without a reboot. Annoying, but not as time consuming. I went ahead and tested all the K switch motions manually without power. They all...

    dmu50v S153 errors

    That could totally be possible in my case as well. Mind if I ask how you figured that out? Because the door closed circuitry is pretty complex and replacing everything on it until it stops would not be ideal for me.

    dmu50v S153 errors

    Hello all, I have a 1997 dmu50v with millplus v320. Recently I've been getting this S153 (drive not responding) error which requires a cold restart. It usually happens when I close the door. Once, it happened when I jogged in the z-axis with the door open, but that was with an E130 (Spindle...
