Busco gente que tenga o que haya tenido experiencia con la RedFox 2 de nomadtech

If there is any machine shop owner or worker who wants an ERP that is focused mainly on manufacturing rather than anything else. I've started a project for my client and just had a thought if they want probably more people wants to have this kind of software for tracking and analyzing everything around the manufacturing, machines etc. For a reasonably cheap prices ofc like 50 buck a month

I live in Oregon an have been getting temps dipping down into the 20’s during the night. It is taking along time to warm up. I have noticed my ShopSabre 4896 shuttering which is causing it to loose track of where it is on the gantry (x,y axis).

My first thought is that the grease is to cold and not allowing for it to easily move. Is there a low temp grease that might help solve this issue?

Thanks, Brian

I have a weird question - when milling on our 3 axis cnc, and making an hole inside the part, lets say a triangle hole in the middle on the sheet, it does all the miling just fine but leabes a little knob on the part that will be thrown out - the traingolar part that was removed... i know it doesn't change the real parts function or anything like that but I just want a perfect traingle from the extra material the goes to waste..

We are using fusion360 as our CAM software and yes the knob shows up in the simulate option in fusion

I am looking for a 4-axis CNC machine under 1000usd to make some toys and unique chess figures. What should I get? The size does not have to be too big.

I have seen some options from snapmaker, but I am looking for more variants.

We have a 2012 SCM Sigma Impact 107 Beam Saw (not a cnc, but it is adjacent machinery) looking to auction it off. Any ideas how I can gauge the thing’s value myself before auction companies tell me what they think it’s worth?

I just had a very big job interview for an R&D machinist position that I believe went pretty well. The only thing that they seemed hesitant about was that I have used Mastercam for 25 years and never used GibbsCam, which is what they use.

I know that almost all CAM software can achieve the same thing, just have to learn their naming and where the buttons are.

Has anyone switched from Mastercam to GibbsCam? If so, was it difficult to get up to speed?

Hi,

have you heard of interpolation turning (orbit machining)?

Does anyone have any experience with this machining method on Sinumerik?

How is the accuracy of machining holes / planes compared to e.g. milling as shown in the video below during machining of the valve plane?

Does anyone fill the areas where the spoilboard was cut too deep?

Somebody forgot to zero the Z axis (I'd never do that myself) and the bit cut a few MM deeper than it should. This has happened several times. I know I could fill those areas with some sort of wood filler, but is that actually a good idea?

Has anyone successfully designed one for wood? I’ve looked up and down for a file to buy but nothing. I’ve tried designing one but it hasn’t come out correct.

Any help is appreciated. I’m doing a 420 fest and wanted to include some with rolling trays and stash boxes.

I work as a CnC machinist, where I cut steel, not plastic. There are metal chips everywhere and I do a good job at staying clean for the most part. I've been in this job for about 6 or 7 years. Recently I've been having a lot of anxiety about potentially getting s piece of metal in my mouth and swallowing it. I realize if it's a small enough piece it will not hurt me. Sometimes we have longer, more needle like chips though.

Any help on how to remove or lessen this fear of mine?

I work at a scenic fab shop and we outsource a fair bit of metal cutting to a local water jet.

We are considering buying our own machine to keep in in house and expand our capabilities.

I feel like water is not ideal for us. I am thinking a laser is going to be our best bet but that is why I'm here. I have read that plasma is an option as well. trying to find the best fit.

I think I read that we will need at least a 2kw laser for half inch. Half would be fairly rare most commonly 1/8in or 1/4in.

Who are the brands we should look at who should we avoid, what are some of the other costs associated with the laser that we need to consider.

We already have 2 cnc routers so we have a pretty beefy compressor and dryer in the shop. I'd have to check the specs to see the capacity of the compressor we have.

how much to cut 3/4 plywood on the cnc 4ft letters only?

I am programming a part for doing finishing operation using 3+2 milling or positional milling. I am confused how to setup link motions for a given position and between positions.

Is it desirable to have simultaneous rotation along B and C axis during this link (non-cutting motion) while machining a given region along a fixed tool axis positio? What could be the consequence? Does anyone have experience in machining parts using 3+2 and setting up effective links between different region..it would be helpful to share your thoughts

Hello everyone.

I draw my cutting files with AutoCAD, then I open the DWG file in the FastNest to generate the CNC file and then proceed to cut it in the CNC machine.

I was wondering how can I make marking lines? For example if I want to bend a plate in a certain line, how can I make this line without the CNC cutting it through?

Hi, i have an issue with machining cycles/g code guidance. Controller is MXP-300FB iHMI.

Basically any cycle made with this function: lets say pattern drilling does not work. There is no error it just freezes on the cycle line with spindle running...

Both in simulation and real life. G98 works though o.O I kinda feel the problem is actually with the "pattern" part of code - G1215

Send help!
