Fagor 8025M CONTROL help

[ktk11]

I need to know how to set my cutters using a 8025 Fagor 2 spindle vertical mill. Anybody use one of these controls?

We've got a Fagor 8025 on a lathe, but I'm sure its pretty similar.

Op Mode 5

T 1 . 1 for tool 1 offset 1, I'm not sure how this works with height and diameter offsets.

Cycle start.

T.meas F5 or 6 if this isn't flashing the controller will put your offset on the screen but will not remember it.

pick you axis,

X then tell it where it is (X 0.) then enter

X load (i think it comes up as F2)

and your done.

Hey Little Bubba, I am helping a guy with an EZ-Trak Bridgeport lathe and I'm trying to download a program from a flash drive via the USB port. It has a fagor controller on it. I'm not sure how to do this. I'm pushing the buttons trying to hit and miss but some knowledge from someone would be great help. Also how do you start the spindle do do some manual touch cuts. Thanks !
