Introduce myself: I have 20 yrs experience of CNC-machines. Mostly Okumas but also some Fanucs. My work includes CAM, CAD and machine maintenance & repair. I am not a machinist. Our company is called Eka-Sorvaus OY ou might translate it First-Turning INC. :) We do Oxy-Cutting, Welding, Machining and Painting. I got involved with LinuxCNC because we have Cincinnati 10HC2500 horizontal mill, this machine had bad control(850sx with old DC-servos and DC-spindle). We decided to replace control with LinuxCNC and also install new spindle & servo motors and also install new absolute linear scales from Fagor to avoid zeroing. With a lot help from PCW, Andypugh and newnobi I have been able to get this machine moving again. You can check progress & current status here: https://forum.linuxcnc.org/forum/show-your-stuff/31146-cincinnati-10hc2500-atc-with-custom-hal-component
Reason for me to join this mailing list was that we do need G84 floating tapping canned cycle. I was surprised to find out that LinuxCNC does not support this "out of the box". I have found mhaberler old work from 2012 here: http://git.mah.priv.at/gitweb/emc2-dev.git/shortlog/refs/heads/g84-dev And I was able to add this code manually to current master source. But I have few questions left and I am hoping to find some help. -- Tero Kaarlela Production Engineer Eka-Sorvaus OY Nivala Finland ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Emc-developers mailing list Emc-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-developers
