5 Axis CNC HEAD PORTING

[docstruthers]

with that kind of equipment you should just make your own damn heads. from scratch

I really don't care for Haas mills, particularly because they lack a lot in the way of rigidity (recirculating ball guides are to blame). For a little more a Milltronics machine with roller guides would be better- and have a PC-based control.

@douro20 I've been told Mori Seiki mills were better than Haas VMCs. Having said that, I run a Haas mill , no experience with Mori except for old chuckers. What's the deal?

@motel29

good god man. have you not seen the new mori seki lathes and mills?they are amazing, and tolerances along with tooling touch off is the among the best.

I love the haas control, but that is about it when it comes to high tolerances.

All the programming for our CNC head programs, is done with Mastercam X3. All modeling is also done in MastercamX3.

What CAM program did the G Code for this ?

[mmmmrcheeky]

what about 4 cyl and6cylinder heads...do you have enough rotation to clear the head to table

Kind of bizarre seeing a Five axis CNC working on a VW beetle head designed in the thirties:)
