I am working on a Mazak VTC 300C II with Mazak Mazatrol Matrix Nexus cnc panel and i am a little bit noob at programming section and i urgently need some help if anyone from here can help me.
I have to make a program for the drawing i attached in this thread. i already asked the company programmers but they don't know how to do it and you guys are my only hope.
I also want to know what tool to use for making this.
I will be gracefull if anyone can help me.
The left, top and right faces are basic vise jobs The radius form would be a milling cutter ground to match the profile. The drills would require two fixtures or a rotary table to do the drilling ops.
You can also machine the surface with massive toolpath die mold ball nose machining. Also known as Kellering. Also done with models and hydraulic tracer mills. Makino prides themselves on great die mold cabilities. Machine needs a massive stream of coordinate data in really fine increments at incredible rates of processing and feedrate and spindle speed.
The curves are also possible with wire edm, a cnc cheese slicer in concept.
I don't know your level. Did not mean to be a know it all or under estimate your knowledge. Just trying to be a nice guy. And I want to exercise my cnc machine processing chops.
