Flat turning, polygon turning, Polygon milling, potatoe, potatho. It's for a customer... and you don't OWN me...I think you meant OWE, right? Kindly!

i am sorry, i was tired ... i think the difference between 'owe' and 'own' can be tolerated just kidding

and what is a polygon head ? and it comes with bearings ? please, can you show me such a tool ? i really don't know

Does someone know why on my LR15M OSP5020L when I run M221 command spindle and M-tool does not rotate in same direction ?? I need same direction for flat turning

[OkumaWiz]

The newer machines all have a parameter that can be switched so that the M-spindle rotation can be corrected. On your 5020 control I do not think it existed at that time. Double check the parameters for a M-spindle setting page.If that doesn't work, try to control by the M13/M14 commands with the M221.

Best regards,
