If all works out I
will be getting an Akira-Seiki mill with a Mitsibishi high speed
control.
I currently program
"part profile" for our Okuma mills. they will turn comp on with as little as
.0001" move. So when programming a .251" wide slot with a .250" mill, I can drop
into the slot and make a comp move over to the wall of the slot with no problem.
I am wondering about the Mitsubishi. My comp values for the okuma are the tool
radius.
I am "assuming" that
with the mitsubishi/fanuc control I will need to code tool center to be able to
cut the same .251" slot with a .250" dia. e-mill?
thanks
Bob
