Mill to lathe does not compute! | |
I'm unfamiliar with setting offsets on our SL-30, but maybe I'm just a tard.... I'm machining a .125 wide x .083 deep face groove with 1/32 radii at the bottom corners, but forget that for now... my grooving tip is .094... I touch it to the probe, Z works fine, but touching the top or bottom of the probe, no matter, my X never ends up right. probe is properly set up, but the tool nose identifier is where I think my problem may be... I've tried using 2, 3, and even 7, touching the top of the probe then subtracting half the width... please enlighten me, oh enlightened ones... lol I'll probably be asking again when it comes to those radii, but I hope to get enough of the basic idea through this... many thanks
Mason
