CSS, yes Regid tapping, Yes Threaded, Yes (all need encoder obvisly, 1ppr does work, but no where near as having one with many pules) everything else u would exspect from a lathe is there also i would say. o, its all in radius programming right now, so half the X values and R(arcs) on a diameter program it it will run just fine, bit of a pain if u dont have a radius post for your CAD/CAM (like me ) but no bigger unless produce heaps of code. only things missing from lathe would be, area clearnce cycle with finish and rough (internal and external) o maybe C axis hehe ;) > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge > Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes > Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world > http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ > _______________________________________________ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG - http://www.avg.com > Version: 8.0.175 / Virus Database: 270.9.0/1774 - Release Date: 07/11/2008 > 19:58 > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
