Nice video - it makes me want a new machine. Accuracy and Precision (not the same thing) start here, with the install. Having a rigid floor, making sure that the machine is perfectly level, keeping the shop temperature and humidity to spec, gently bringing the machine to life, bringing out the beast from within. What a beautiful machine, can't wait to see what you'll do with it!
I do see from the video how you ran the power, it is a good practice to have the flexible conduit at the machine. Glad to see you are doing that, perhaps you can do a video about how to install a machine and some of the things you need to think about for layout and plumbing. Not directly machining related but a good thing for people who might be buying a machine to get an idea of all the extras you might not think about in advance. Charles
I fully agree here, i had a horrible time explaining to a customer about why a shop/factory needs a compressor Or why you can't just use 120 for a $980k machine (same guy) The surrounding equipment can be absolutely crucial and sometimes essential (like proper electricity or air)
They have already done that in previous Moving To Texas Videos, There Is a Video Solely on the Air System install and Coolant Supply 👍👍ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-NmNVPwwcP7A.html ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-mq7P0vGZEhk.html
Holy crap. Titan I have never seen so much cool and awesome machines all under one roof!! I have to say you have an awesome team and they enjoy working with you. So many people have people working FOR them and rarely WITH them. You my friend have been treating your employees right far as I can tell and your employees are Working With you! God bless you and your team
Yes! The BVM is a beast! BVM should stand for BEAST Vertical Machine. We shared a video cutting on our IG and the finish quality on the part is pristine.
I love new machine day too. Just today we signed a purchase agreement for a 2019 Doosan LYNX 2100 lathe with about 300 hours on it. On the cheap at that. Tons of great used iron out there right now. We've got some Star swisses on order but they're nearly 8 months out. Nice machine you are showing off but it's not where we're trying to go. Swiss is where the money is at for us. Low labor, high output. They're like printing presses.
Great video as always. Was wondering if you guys could do a video on probing. Like setting tools length and radius comps then tips and tricks with finding your part. I recently learned how to check for flatness with one and it blew my mind! Just wanting to see what more is out there!
Looks like an okuma look alike. I wish they would have used a chin style tool changer like okuma so you could load tools without running them through the spindle ...
The boys are ready to unpack the gifts from santa at 3:15 ...lol 😁🍻 Great machine ... Excellent channel...and camera man haha Grtz from the netherlands Johny geerts 😉
thats a tiny bridge type i setup programed and ran a 6 meter and an 8 meter SNK RB-6VM s for 4 years machined a few 48,000 lb parts on them very accurate machines btw
Titan's next machines need to be a really massive pig cooker and a retired Army mobile kitchen trailer. Get one that'll do five to ten pigs and hire a crew to come in starting Thursday night and sell/deliver Friday lunches to the rest of that industrial park you're in. Call it Titan-Q. With the kind of class the rest of your operation has, this can't help but be a success.
That's the same kind of X-axis layout the Makino machines I work with have. They aren't as rigid and powerful as this beast, though. Our Makinos are more like really accurate (+/- 0.0015 mm) finishing machines, which is also what we use them for.
Funny how it reminds me ( but not quite ) of a Prusa style 3d printer but a 1000X bigger makes me think the next evolution will be a massive CoreXY vertical milling
Can we see a true position test with this machine? Profile a part to the maximum travel of the machine, with some features, put a bunch of holes in it. And check and see on a cmm just how good it is over the entire movement!
Love it! Absolute beast of a machine, interesting seeing those beast-y rails and ball screws, and those massive bearing blocks. Interesting you're starting to show the parts that build up the machine, I encourage tenfold. I appreciate learning from the ground up, I think that's why I had to attempt to build my own CNC to give credit to the craft, and be humbled by how damn hard it is to make a CNC machine. Totally not planting seeds for a Titans desktop CNC.
You could use the metal frame housing as a VR room. Now there's an idea, a VR program to teach people how to make parts in VR. How cool would that be? Make it compatible with Oculus, HTC, Steam Deck and any other VR system that has a headset and controllers.
I'm in Canada, but we have about half as many machines as he has, or bill is about $1200 a month just for reference. Being in Texas, I wouldn't be surprised if he's under $2000 a month
TITAN HAS BIG MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACTS DEEP SEA ROVERS AND THE ROCKET PARTS THEY ARE MAKING!! CHECK OUT THE CNC PRINTER WITH TITANIUM WITH THE COOLING BUILT RIGHT IN THE PART !! AMAZING!! TO SAY THE LEAST!!?? *************** I WOULD LUV TO WORK WITH THAT MILLION DOLLAR CNC!!!!!!!!!!!!!******. GOULD DEFENSE ELECTRONICS!!! BEFORE THE MERGING OF MARTIN MARIETTA AND NORTHROP GRUMMAN!! MAGNETICS!! REPLACED SONAR PINGING!!?
how does DN solutions compare to DMG Mori or TAKAMAZ? Both these competitors told us of similar horror stories about Doosan. I've always been interested in getting one but upper management keeps drinking the coolaid. are there business cases that Doosan can provide proving they provide long lasting production machine tools?
The machines are 20-40% less expensive than some of the other top premier machines and provide a nice step up for those moving from Haas to a high level machine. We machine titanium, Inconel and most materials to tolerance. They are the best bang for the buck.
I mean, you get what you pay for and depends on your application. Any name brand machine can provide long term lasting production. If its tight tolerance like +/- .0005 then you obvioisly want to set up to a DMG or Okuma. If its +/- .001 the Doosan is capable. If its +/- .0000# then a Hermle and Kern is your answer. Kern > Hermle > Makino > DMG > Doosan > Mazak > Haas
No comparison.YASDA is in another league.Best you can achieve above YASDA is a SIP 5000 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-GkzdnDD8-1U.html
nice machine but I want to see the maximum crazy feed of this machine while cutting plastic aluminum and steel .we want to see the alien technology out of it! I wish to have the opportunity to ry the machine my self.
what is the difference between "bridge" and "gantry"?? It looks to me like the gantry machines we used to build???? In my last california shop we had a gantry machine that an "X" axis around 10-12 feet, maybe a little more!!!
A gantry mill moves the entire machine over the table. A bridge is more of a fixed position machine. Way more rigid than the gantry. 12 feet is just a baby when it comes to gantry mills. We got one that is around 25 feet. But we have a very old okuma that is a bridge mill that was a converted NC machine. It repeats numbers better than any machine in the shop. Not super fast but it is amazingly accurate.
Haha yeah if they're running the machines hard, got climate control to keep all that space a constant temp, big ol air compressor, and some other stuff. We've got 2 20-30 hp Haas mills and I think we spend more on our light than what the mills use haha. we're a job shop, rarely go over 10 hp on the spindle, and don't run the machines all day everyday. Depends on what they're running, may not use as much as you think.
I don't want to be that guy but I'm going to be. Safety glasses don't do you any good on top of your head or not on at all. Better get on that. Safety first lol. Otherwise awesome video!!
you are talking, as this machine is gona blow your mind. there are bigger faster, so are smaller faster. ......... ...temp compens etc...mori seiki y 1998 has it
They really lost their mind changing the name to DN Solutions. Seriously wtf. Thats pathetic name, meaningless, worthless and will be their demise. You will see !
