Horn's engineering team is incredible. They have helped me with some odd grind reliefs created by some inexperienced engineer. (necking tools). The relief could have been done with off the shelf tooling, but my engineering team was too intimidated to question the dimensions.

@madogheli6372 8 месяцев назад

Hi Ronnie, good job but you missed something fundamental on the tool geometry. Problem with plunging tool they get dull pretty fast base on material used, and you will start to have build up edge who will affect your tool performance, dimensions and surface finish. That’s the time when you will need to reshap your tool, but your tool was not design with constant geometry so you can’t resharp from the top without affecting the geometry. Basically you need to calculate your rake angle that your tool profile stay consistent so you can regrind it from the top. We use to do that all time on Escomatic tool..😅 But that probably a topic for your next video…😉👍🏻 Stay 💪🏼 Boom !

Funny to see this. 20 Years ago I did an apprenticeship on 30+ Year old mechanical multi spindle lathes using form tools. Typical part time: 6 to 10 seconds. So the Idea has been around for a while... And we also did the chip breaking thing. We just grinded some groves into the curves controlling the tools...

Is there EDM training on creating the relief angle? Is it just a matter of shrinking the bottom tool path (U/V) of the wire EDM to create the relief?

@sl_st 8 месяцев назад

It seems to me that it is possible not to project each line and arches separately, but simply to use a Boolean operation. After subtracting your part from the cutting insert, you will get all the contours automatically. This will speed up the process of creating a contour by about ten times. And you love speed and simplicity ;)

That is why I don't Know much about the new Tec.

@jackmclane1826 8 месяцев назад

It is awesome tech. In what range of production volume is this the way to go? Because I'm not sure how big the window between very fast conventional lathes and the multirotor revolver lathes is for this. The tooling is for sure very expensive in comparison. The problem that I see is: The machine is aready very special as the spindle power for such an operation and the cutting forces are SICK. May it be twice as fast as a very fast standard lathe setup. With standard quick change tooling, you can certainly use higher cutting speeds, as inserts are much cheaper than these tools, which prevents this to pull ahead very far. And then if you use a specialized machine with custom tooling, why not going full beans with a revolver lathe that probably still beats this by a solid factor - again with cheap (in comparison) standard tooling? Don't get me wrong, I like the shots that you presented here A LOT!

@ipadize 8 месяцев назад

Are you sure? That sound like it will essentially revolve cut the body from the tool, and it will have no relief and not be a 2d shape

Why did the part look so wobbly when you were cutting it, that can't be good. Not trying to be an a hole, you guys are amazing keep up the great content.

@traitretrudeau2367 8 месяцев назад

Because the pressure is insane and the variation of depths with a rake angle make that the cutting edge isnt on center anymore and the part is trying to climb over the tool.

@greeneyesfromohio4103 8 месяцев назад

Random question guys…. At my shop we have a Mazak with a spindle problem we think…after machining a plain block of aluminum with a 4 inch end mill and we check it up and down with an indicator on the Z it’ll be 0 at the bottom and by the time we get to the top it’s .010 off…..could the spindle be crooked or what would cause this? The spindle did just get serviced because it wouldn’t change tools properly so we’re thinking they did something incorrectly when they made the repair?

@SteveColluns-hm2xx 8 месяцев назад

Sounds more like a gib issue. As your spindle travels in Z, if the gib is loose, it will cause a taper in your machined surface. Are you seeing any chatter on your machined surfaces? Put a 1” dia. solid end mill holder in the spindle. Then put a 1” dia bar stock in the holder and tighten it. Put an indicator base on your table and put the indicator needle on the holder. Grab the bar stock, push and pull in all directions and see if you have movement on the indicator. Make sure needle is on holder and not bar stock. Good luck

@Technocolor00 8 месяцев назад

How come chatter isnt an issue? I suggested doing something like this for some small thin domed parts to my manual machinist coworker instead of tons of small step over spiral cuts with a ball end mill on the 3 axis cnc (we dont have a cnc lathe) but he said chatter would be way to much and the mill would be easier. (It wasnt, they kept bending in the chuck, I didnt get home till like 10 : / ) Was he right about that or did he just want to pass the parts onto me?

@SCh1m3ra 8 месяцев назад

For that really fine valley? I'd probably wager 100 parts. It could still be in print, but it'll probably start showing some wear. Probably 500 before something chips or snaps. If you really want to you could probably redress the carbide a couple times if you catch it before they break. Just have to keep an eye for the wear. Plunge a little extra deep to compensate for the draft angle. So they might be able to use those 4 inserts across a couple thousand parts. With careful eyes. With less careful eyes, probably be 500 before a few are toasted somehow.

@laszlobernath5344 8 месяцев назад

Hey guys did I see it correctly, did the shaft end wobbled at the plunging on the end?😳

@SCh1m3ra 8 месяцев назад

A little more finesse on the final plunge might be necessary, but it's not uncommon for this approach to cause a lot of side load and the part to subsequently give a wobble. It can be ironed out with some workholding or just a slightly easier approach on the final cut, if they're desperate to eliminate it. Some jobs don't absolutely need it.
