    You're videos are brilliant and massively helpful. Thankyou

    I got a ? How do you set the lathe up as a gang tooling. And how do you make it automatically run the next tool rather then ask to change tools thanks hope to here back

    Hello Franco, I found this video so useful and have successfully completed my tools. I am having a problem though that involves tooling and Intercon. I’m not getting the right finished diameters. It’s very frustrating and Ive spent several days trying to get the correct result. If I code my self for simple turning its fine. Looking at the GCode it produces it seems to be taking twice the depth of cut. I have tried using radius as well as diameter and I’m stuck. Any ideas? Mike

    Thanks for taking the time to make this video. For tool check positioning is there a way to move the Z first them the X or only the Z?
    I have a gang lathe also and both axis moving a once may cause a crash depending on tooling setup.

    At about 11:15, are you entering the radius or the diameter of the work after skim cutting?

    For the Z axis why can't you just put a dial indicator in the spindle, touch off your first tool and zero the indicator. Then simply bring each tool up to the dial indicator and make the appropriate adjustment. It's much faster and more accurate than goofing around with the feel of shim stock.
    All in all I think your videos are excellent.

      Hi. You certainly could do that and it would work just fine. I tried to follow what was described in the manual to help establish common ground and a point of reference. Thanks.

    Hi Franco,
    Was thinking of building a lathe similar to the one you have just set up. I would like to use a servo motor for the spindle motor. Can the Acorn be configured to use step direction for spindle control.
    This video will be very useful in setting up the offsets.
    Thanks Dave.

      Dave Bassett Hi Dave. It is really easy to control a VFD with the acorn 0 to 10v analog output. I suspect there is a way to control a spindle with step direction but the Centroid guys will have to confirm. I'd check out the forum.

    Great video Franco! Can you comment on whether you have to do this process each time you load a new stock. I am wanting to produce maybe 40-50 parts per day and it would be a pain to have to do this each time I insert new stock.

    • @FrancoCNC

      Hi. You only need to do this when you power up your machine.

    • @ktaylor678
      @ktaylor678 3 года назад

      @@FrancoCNC You have to do this entire process every time the machine is powered up? Or you just have to set part zero on your master tool on machine start up? Setting up all your tool offsets on every power up is terrible!

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  3 года назад +1

      @@ktaylor678 No, you only have to define your tools once. If you have good limit switches, all you need to do on power up is home out your machine. If you don't have limit switches, then you need to touch off your master tool on power up. But all of the other tools will be good to go.

    Nice Video! One question... how do you set the Z axis with a tool like Thread insert- cut off- round nose for facing. Cheers.

    • @FrancoCNC
      @FrancoCNC  5 лет назад

      Well, that is a good question. For threading, I just eyeball it when I'm working at home. At my day job, I'll put the tool on a comparator or a measuring system like that and measure the distance from the cutting edge to whatever I'm able to touch off of. Then, I'll adjust the offset by that amount.

      I'd use Fusion 360 and post CNC code directly out of that software.
