Gentlemen,
We now have a shop full of EMC2 believers. I walked out into the shop this
morning and all three EMC2 controlled machines were cutting steel parts. The
Dahlih was making some blocks for a draw press. The Cinci was milling some
steel plates and the Enshu was milling some steel blocks.
I wanted to get some pictures of the Enshu cutting the blocks but 2 hours
later when I went out with the camera the job was completed. The job did not
have any tool changes so it was not a good candidate for a video. I don't
know what is going on it next. I will get a video shortly.
The Cinci is generating a lot of good feedback. One of our programmers
said this is the best machine in the shop. One of my partners came in my
office today to tell me the Cinci had circle interpolated a (I think) 4 inch
hole within .0005 round. Neither man is easily impressed. I will get some
pictures of the parts.
We moved the Dahlih into the main shop. Clyde, the machinist that ran the
Dahlih in the back shop, wanted us to move it to the main shop so he could
run it there. Clyde is not a CNC operator. Clyde is a crochety old manual
machinist. He likes the Dahlih. He was very skeptical at first. When he saw
the keyboard (the gui is AXIS) he turned up his nose. His finger now fly
over the keys. We have a small cell set up for him. A manual bridgeport, a
manual lathe and the Dahlih. I would love to set an EMC2 controlled lathe in
his cell.
I have not worked on the G&L again - yet - I will get to it shortly.
EMC2 ROCKS
thanks
Stuart
