    Why do they want thousands for a heat shrink tool machine?

    We use the Haimer one here at work with the cooling collars. It is probably 15 years old. It works ok but I feel it ruins some toolholders by overheating them sometimes. We use Haimer holders as well. 1/8 are notorious for becoming scrap. I feel too that the price is wildly high for such a...

    OSP300 Blending into a surface

    The creative evolutions control I run can do it, and I believe the heidenhains we have can do it even though I don't run them currently. Makes trimming weld back to the origional wall a breeze.

    OSP300 Blending into a surface

    I got a m560-v question. I want to adjust my z height down while running a surfacing program to blend into the surface. So I start about .001 high and keep incrementing it down until it blends. How do I do that with this control? Also, is that new value stored or is canceled after the end of...

    Renishaw OTS chipping tools

    My other machine has a laser, I feel the laser is more versatile at this point. I did not spec out this machine, it was delivered and told there ya go. I also feel like the setup and training from Gosiger on this install was less than stellar. Especially the probe setup.

    Renishaw OTS chipping tools

    The only macros that I know about are Gosiger set up ones. My choice is on center non rotating or rotating off center. my .5 .75 and 1 inches are chipping half the time. The stylus already has a wear mark that I can feel and I have only had the machine about three months.

    Renishaw OTS chipping tools

    Im struggling with the OTS tool setter on our new M560-V. Quite frequently it is chipping the bottom of carbide end mills when setting length. It is spinning backwards but I feel the rpm is a little fast. How do I adjust it and have you guys found a solution to this problem. My only...

    OT- Favorite pistols to shoot

    My most recent gun is a Sig P365X with a holosun on top. Its my first red dot on a pistol. I like it a lot. Super smooth gun considering its size.

    Laser welder beam deflection

    Thanks and I will play with some settings. This machine seems super simple to use so far, but damn its hard to control .01 and smaller filler rod.

    Laser welder beam deflection

    I am trying to use it for mold repair. Its a fairly tight area to get into that I am welding. So any little deflection of the energy is showing up. I do have it tilted slightly away from me.

    ordering a new shrink fit device.

    30 seconds seems like a long time. We got a haimer one and its like 5 seconds. It works decent for most holders.

    Laser welder beam deflection

    We just purchased a laser welder. Fiber style. This is my first experience with one. After using it for a day I think its pretty sweet except for one issue I am having. The beam seems to hit the intended surface and reflect a little energy to another surface nearby. Any tips and tricks to...

    Okuma probing and measuring question

    We want to look into probing a measuring using our Okuma m560 for verification of a cut part. We are doing it on our Hermles and want to incorporate this into this machine as well. We program the probe routines in Cimatron and the probe creates a report of the surface deviation from the...

    New Machine day!!!

    It’s been a slow start to this machine. It took gossinger 3 days to instal and the apps guy two days to get the probe working. And I’m still not satisfied with the table probe. In my opinion the way you level it is pathetic. In one direction it’s with set screws and cap screws. In the...
