[06:30:59] <t12> hum
[06:31:09] <t12> how have i fucked up if in grinding my lathe jaws
[06:31:12] <t12> the appear slightly conical
[06:31:27] <t12> they indicate very concentric
[06:32:59] <archivist> how did you support them during grinding
[06:33:07] <t12> backed them out into an id alum ring
[06:33:13] <t12> tight enough so that the ring was distorted
[06:33:42] <t12> however i did that on the tip of the jaws
[06:33:51] <Loetmichel> that was the error
[06:33:59] <t12> so maybe they all moved inwards if theres slop in the scroll?
[06:34:01] <Loetmichel> should have done that at the base
[06:34:03] <archivist> wrong way to mimic normal tightening forces and jaw rocking due to wear
[06:34:40] <t12> should i just move the clamp as close to the scroll as possible
[06:34:45] <t12> some other way to secure it?
[06:35:15] <archivist> I make 3 little spacers so I tighten the jaws onto them leaving the inner clear
[06:35:48] <t12> lemme picture
[06:36:10] <Loetmichel> even better would be to drill 3 holes in the jws on the outermost (deepest) step and than fir a ring to that with plain bolts and CLOSING the chuck to get it tight
[06:36:19] <Loetmichel> s/fir/fit
[06:36:31] <archivist> I close the chuck with my method
[06:36:46] <t12> https://www.dropbox.com/sc/0jlnt76hjpj67z1/EMEVKCQKlw
[06:36:47] <archivist> no drilling needed
[06:37:02] <Loetmichel> archivist: thats possible, too
[06:39:10] <mrsun> hmm, the force when tightening outwards isnt the preasure points of the jaws
[06:39:14] <mrsun> :P
[06:40:01] <t12> archivist: spacers that fit in the contact point between the edges of the jaws?
[06:40:08] <t12> s/point/plane
[06:40:29] <archivist> yes the side angle
[06:41:53] <t12> https://www.dropbox.com/sc/fojfu30z17o4jfz/ueHibTX7t1
[06:41:54] <t12> like that?
[06:42:10] <t12> do you have to get them matched in thickness or just use something soft that will distort enough?
[06:42:41] <archivist> I make matched
[06:43:24] <t12> ok i will try that
[06:43:28] <archivist> usually by working with 3 parts cut from the same bit of metal
[06:43:43] <t12> i think i'm only a few thou conical so i didnt mess up that bad
[06:43:44] <t12> heh
[06:45:33] <archivist> the conical amount shows wear in the jaws and chuck

[06:46:09] <t12> will that wear cause problems elsewhere
[06:46:24] <t12> like diffnt conical error at different diamaters or whatnot
[06:47:18] <archivist> it could show up as variable quality of grip and concentricity
[06:48:27] <archivist> look for signs of over tightening too
[06:48:46] <t12> what are those signs?
[06:48:53] <t12> i'm sure the chuck has been much abused over the years
[06:49:04] <t12> at some point do you just get a new chuck
[06:50:20] <archivist> 3 jaw chucks are never perfect, just learn to live with what you have
[06:51:51] <t12> is there a way to get around the additive error of chuck mount -> test bar -> tailstock alignment
[06:52:26] <archivist> just got firefox restarted, yes link that picture but maybe with larger bits like http://www.archivist.info/openoffice/t12.jpeg
[06:52:50] <t12> ok yeah
[06:52:51] <t12> that makes sense
[06:52:57] <t12> that will be straightforward to build
[06:54:18] <archivist> tailstock/headstock alignment is another can of worms
[06:57:01] <t12> yeah :(
[06:57:16] <t12> my understanding is that you align the tailstock axis with a testbar axis
[06:57:34] <t12> i guess you could cheat and align the tailstock to the spindle without chuck
[06:57:39] <t12> and eat the bed error?
[06:59:10] <archivist> t12, http://www.archivist.info/cnc/schlesinger/fig0019.jpg
[06:59:54] <archivist> I should scan some more of the methods from that book one day
[07:00:16] <t12> treat it like shaft alignment?
[07:01:15] <t12> i guess you can just hand adjust the test bar absurdly until it indicates concentric as possible where youre indicating?
[07:01:32] <archivist> there are two errors, which do you have?
[07:01:58] <t12> or turn down something arbitrary near the tailstock, dead center and indicate from there?
[07:02:15] <archivist> is the headstock axis in line with the bed as well as the tailtstock error
[07:02:19] -!- mhaberler has quit [Quit: mhaberler]
[07:02:26] <t12> unknown
[07:03:22] <t12> what's normally the reference axis in a lathe
[07:03:25] <t12> the bed's?
[07:03:37] <t12> spindles seems hardest to adjust?
[07:04:04] <archivist> well is the bed straight, worn or twisted, all have to be tested to get anywhere close
[07:04:28] <archivist> has the bed been levelled
[07:05:44] <t12> hum
[07:05:52] <t12> not worn (by eye)
[07:06:00] <t12> i need to check/adjust level
[07:06:36] <t12> straight, twisted would be indicate from apron to bed v's?
[07:07:22] <archivist> test bar in the morse taper and dti on the saddle should show some bed faults after you have levelled
[07:13:14] <t12> spindle taper? tailstock taper?
[07:13:28] <t12> thanks for all the help btw
[07:13:32] <t12> i clearly dont know what i'm doing :)
[07:14:01] <archivist> measuring a worn lathe can be fun
[07:14:13] <t12> its unclear how to interpert this lathe
[07:14:19] <t12> it's sat in a university so that means
[07:14:25] <t12> mostly unused, and when used likley badly
[07:14:27] <archivist> I wish I could afford the toys to do it properly
[07:15:07] <archivist> I know both my lathes in the garage are worn due to use
[07:15:10] -!- erictheise has quit [Quit: erictheise]
[07:18:24] <archivist> I can feel a ridge on the V on the southbend, probably 10 to 15 thou, has the saddle worn as much, therefore the saddle could be 20-30 thou below in the most worn part
[07:20:00] <t12> sounds like i need more tooling to really dial this in

[07:38:43] <archivist> there are other tapers,
[07:40:26] <t12> it is indeed 4 1/2

[14:20:16] <Aero-Tec> hello
[14:20:31] <Aero-Tec> I seem to have a problem with setting tool table
[14:20:51] <Aero-Tec> what is the trick to getting it right?
[14:21:28] <Aero-Tec> I do touch off and select tool table, but it is not entered right
[14:21:48] <Aero-Tec> not sure why
[14:21:50] <cradek> explain
[14:22:16] <Aero-Tec> I use tool 1 as the main reference tool
[14:22:47] <Aero-Tec> so I zero tool one and then load the next tool
[14:22:55] <cradek> wait
[14:23:01] <cradek> what do you mean you zero tool one
[14:23:04] <Aero-Tec> do tool change
[14:23:07] <cradek> what exactly are you doing
[14:23:23] <Aero-Tec> I have no home switches
[14:23:58] <Aero-Tec> so I do a test cut with tool 1 and use that to set zero for the machine
[14:24:08] -!- Thetawaves_ [Thetawaves_!~Thetawave@7-139-42-72.gci.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[14:24:33] <Aero-Tec> well the user off sets
[14:24:42] <Aero-Tec> or part offsets
[14:25:33] <Aero-Tec> when that is set I then load the new tool and do a touch off with new tool and select tool table
[14:26:08] <Aero-Tec> seams to me there is also some other thing I have to do or set for this to work right
[14:26:21] <cradek> I do not understand exactly what you do when you "use that to set zero for the machine"
[14:26:38] <cradek> you're not being precise enough for us to understand and tell what you're doing
[14:26:43] <Aero-Tec> been awhile, not sure if memory is recalling things the right way
[14:26:57] <cradek> ok you're not sure what you did?
[14:27:18] <Aero-Tec> when I turn the machine on
[14:27:20] <cradek> maybe go back and try again and make careful notes of what buttons you push, what numbers you enter, etc. --- then someone else can try it and see what's going wrong
[14:28:33] <Aero-Tec> I load some scrap stock
[14:29:33] <Aero-Tec> I do a light cut in both x and z and enter the measurements in the touch off box
[14:30:10] <Aero-Tec> using tool 1.......z is easy, it is 0 all the time
[14:30:43] <cradek> do you home before you do this?
[14:30:55] <Aero-Tec> but x has to be measured and the number entered into the touch off box
[14:31:00] <Aero-Tec> yes
[14:31:21] <Aero-Tec> but home is some random place
[14:32:17] <Aero-Tec> when I have set user off set
[14:32:23] <cradek> what kind of machine is it? do you have encoder index?
[14:32:47] <Aero-Tec> I then use that to set the new tools up
[14:32:52] <Aero-Tec> lathe
[14:33:13] <Aero-Tec> what is encoder index?
[14:33:24] <cradek> do you have encoders? or is it steppers?
[14:33:35] <Aero-Tec> I have a spindle index
[14:33:49] <Aero-Tec> servo with emcoders
[14:33:56] <Aero-Tec> no index
[14:34:04] <cradek> your encoders don't have index channels?
[14:34:11] <Aero-Tec> no
[14:34:36] <cradek> darn. with index you could have perfect homing, even without switches
[14:34:39] <Aero-Tec> the spindle is only index
[14:34:54] <Aero-Tec> how?
[14:35:10] <Aero-Tec> I am wanting to get new incoders
[14:35:29] <cradek> index-only homing: jog to some reference marks and issue home from there, it just seeks the index
[14:35:30] <Aero-Tec> need to update for more inputs
[14:35:44] <Aero-Tec> cool
[14:35:45] <cradek> I use that on a rotary table
[14:36:04] <cradek> no easy way to put a switch, but there's an index pulse every few degrees
[14:36:04] <Aero-Tec> so you get close and it does the reat
[14:36:23] <Aero-Tec> rest
[14:36:32] <cradek> yes you just have to position it between two known index positions
[14:37:15] <cradek> even without index, I suggest you make reference marks and home to them by jogging there manually. Then you can have the protection of soft limits, and all your saved offsets will be close
[14:37:25] <Aero-Tec> if you used index and switch you would be perfect
[14:37:59] <cradek> sure, a switch makes homing easier because you don't have to manually position the machine, but you can get perfect (to one encoder pulse) homing without switches
[14:38:33] <cradek> if you can mark your screws too somehow, a sort of "manual index" you can get pretty reproducable homing, all manually
[14:38:48] <JT-Shop> Aero-Tec: have you seen this? http://gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/g-code/index.html
[14:38:49] <cradek> I've done this on a machine with handwheels
[14:39:15] <Aero-Tec> so if I wanted touch off to be referenced to a user offset and not home how would I do that
[14:39:23] <Aero-Tec> that could be the problem
[14:40:28] <cradek> Aero-Tec: well you can do what you want, but I suspect you are making a mistake when you do it.
[14:41:13] <cradek> you can set tool offset of tool 1 to all zero, and use that to touch off to G54, and then with G54 active touch off to tool table the rest of the tools
[14:41:15] <Aero-Tec> for right now I have little choice
[14:41:17] <R2E4> hi cradek
[14:41:51] <Aero-Tec> G54?
[14:42:05] <Aero-Tec> will have to look that up
[14:43:09] <Aero-Tec> Verify that Machine > Touch off to fixture is selected.
[14:43:13] <cradek> when you use the touch off window BE VERY CAREFUL that you are sending your offsets to the right place
[14:43:21] <Aero-Tec> I think that is the missing thing
[14:43:38] <cradek> you want tool 1's offsets to be all zero, and the rest of the tools will have offsets that represent how much different from tool 1 they are
[14:43:40] <Loetmichel> *grrr* i deleted one G00z2.0 to much -> workpiece -> trash /*grrr*
[14:44:50] <Aero-Tec> I hate when that happens

[15:01:54] <Aero-Tec> Verify that Machine > Touch off to fixture is selected.
[15:02:03] <Aero-Tec> I think that is the missing thing
[15:02:22] <Aero-Tec> will have to check and make sure it was set
[15:02:22] <cradek> I would not bet on it :-)
[15:03:06] <Aero-Tec> want to set tool offset of tool 1 to all zero, and use that to touch off to G54, and then with G54 active touch off to tool table the rest of the tools
[15:03:08] <cradek> in fact if you're not homing repeatably, I think you do NOT want to enable that
[15:03:44] <Aero-Tec> open to suggestions
[15:03:57] <cradek> I bet you have unwanted offsets on T1 and are not ending up with G54 set correctly
[15:04:32] <cradek> look at your tool table and see. maybe pastebin it to share here.
[15:04:35] <Aero-Tec> how would be the best way to one tool one to set the rest of the tools?
[15:05:02] <Aero-Tec> the tool table is good
[15:05:13] <Aero-Tec> just need to get the right numbers into it

[16:43:16] <cpresser> (with a 60-80W laser)
[16:43:18] <tjb1> It has etching, corners cut, holes
[16:43:22] <Tom_itx> so you get the estimate then change the order?
[16:43:50] <tjb1> No, I am saying the rough size of the piece.

[18:04:26] <Aero-Tec> looks like I did the tool table right
[18:04:44] <Aero-Tec> z working fine for z for tool 9
[18:05:12] <Aero-Tec> but for some strange reason the x is not right
[18:09:46] <Aero-Tec> when running a program EMC seems to be in dia mode
[18:10:41] <Aero-Tec> but in the MDI it seems to be in radius mode
[18:10:49] <Aero-Tec> is that posable?
[18:11:12] <Aero-Tec> no G7 in the Gcode

[18:13:48] <Aero-Tec> will see if that works

[18:54:30] <andypugh> Aero-Tec: cradek: You can get to 0.001" just by aligning scribed marks. So that can make a pretty good index. If you couldn't judge the alignment of two sribed marks to 0.001" then vernier calipers wouldn't work.
[18:57:14] <cradek> but vernier calipers don't really work to .001"... :-)
[18:57:22] <cradek> nevertheless, point taken
[18:57:36] <cradek> he should definitely home to marks, if for no other reason than to get soft limits
[18:57:45] <archivist> and you dont compare just two lines on a vernier
[18:58:01] <skunkworks> you make a 'best guess' ;)

[18:59:32] <archivist> I must take pictures of a "vernier" I have here, it is digital with pegs
[18:59:40] <andypugh> archivist: Oh, but you do. All a vernier does is give you a pair of lines to compare for every thou.
[19:00:23] <archivist> you look for the best in a bunch of lines
[19:01:03] <andypugh> Yes, so you pick the one that is exactly aligned out of the ones that aren't.
[19:01:09] <archivist> I have some verniers with magnifiers
