Choosing the correct board for my project. (Hardinge Cobra 42)

Hello All,


Just acquired an old (1997) but young (fewer than 2k hours) Hardinge Cobra 42 lathe. Quick story is - was used by a school and within the 1st year of use, axis board errors and driver parameter issues caused it to be out of commission. The school didn't have the funds to fix it so ...

Backlash compensation - circles vs. squares

Hey Guys/Gals,

I have a mill (Fryer MC-50) that is setup with an Oak board. We run a KP-3 probe that is pretty well dialed in (within .000x"). We have found that running square contours gave us a little deviation in relation to the probe measurements and x dimensions were slightly off compared to y ...

Re: FRV - Feed Rate Variation New Function <FRV and SSV are now standard features of CNC12 v5.2+ >

Ok, unfortunately I'm too stupid to do this properly. I made the edits that made sense to me and all it did was caused a PLC that failed to load. I don't know what I am doing and made a couple of attempts that ended in failure. Is there anyone that is able to help me with this?

Maybe is someone who has SSV active in their PLC willing to share it with me so I can make the changes myself?

Just following up to see if you got a chance to look into this? If not, no rush. I'm just thankful for your efforts. If there is some literature somewhere or a reference I can check out, id be happy to try myself.

Thanks again!!

Re: FRV - Feed Rate Variation New Function <FRV and SSV are now standard features of CNC12 v5.2+ >

Hey there again Centroid Fam....

I am still struggling with this. I am using an Oak board and just updated to the latest version of CNC 12 today (CNC12 v5.3? I think it is)

I can't find any literature that explains the actual implementation of SSV with examples. I see just a couple of videos for ...

Re: FRV - Feed Rate Variation New Function <FRV and SSV are now standard features of CNC12 w/ upcoming CNC12 v5.2 >

I have been waiting patiently for this feature and I am so very happy to see it is available. I am not very good with PLC, but I would like to use the SSV specifically. Is there a manual or anything for implementation? Also, is there a way to activate this feature in post processing with Fusion 360 ...
