Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
I started getting X-Axis position errors. The X Axis is clearly not happy. I shut down and restarted to see if homing would help but the X servo is oscillating Is there anything I should check as far as tuning. What other diagnostics are available? I noticed that an autotune was run - I am not sure ...

Re: NPT Threads in Intercon - Workflow
I will assume the new threads can be saved for future use. I’m using an ER11 A60 insert that doesn’t make a full profile. What type of insert would be required to create the minor diameter as programmed. Thanks for the info on reducing minor diameter.

Re: NPT Threads in Intercon - Workflow
I decided to start with a simpler test. Assume tool offsets are set correctly... My test gage is a nut - not ideal but I'm just experimenting. I need to learn to use thread wires... I cut M6x1 threads and had the proper OD, per micrometer, but the nut did not fit. I adjusted tool wear, several times...

NPT + Threads in Intercon - Workflow
I have just started investigating Intercon for the lathe and wanted to know a bit more about cutting NPT threads. For standard threads my workflow is FACE - TURN - THREADS. As I enter the threads I note the Major Diameter and go back to modify the turning op to match. With NPT threads I am not clear...

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
I would like to understand spindle orientation and how to achieve it. Is it based on a spindle encoder? I read that M19 is the code are there is a Pxx after to define the angle. I tried it and no go.
I'm assuming the orientation is to activate the spindle lock but are there other uses?

Re: Hardinge CHNC4 Retrofit
Know you got me wondering...I thought my encoders were near the motors...and they are but in line with the ball screws. Todays milestone was to program a part in Fusion and post it to the Hardinge. Like all first time adventures there were things that needed adjusting. The one big problem was with t...
