    Drilling an tapping into the Royal collet system was an awesome "hack" I wouldn't have thought of. Very cool and could easily help out a ton when in a bind. May look into doing something similar for the system we're using on our Mazak QuickTurn 6 if we decide to keep it.

      Thank you for the comment. I would be happy to help with integration of this concept into your machine but I am not familiar with that setup. It is definitely nice to not need to rely on outside companies when you are in a bind, especially for something as simple as holding a new bar diameter or OP2 geometry. Plus, nothing is more accurate than machining your work holding in place. It eliminates any tolerance stack up that comes from the machine and chuck. Let me know if I can help with anything, thanks again.

    Im a lathe programmer/operator of 30 years and and still enjoy it. Where i work we have 2 machines just like your Doosan and we tried telling the owner who bought the company with little to no machining experience...90% of our work is for the oilfield and we machine most inconel, duplex,and stainless with little carbon parts.What im getting at is both 2600's have the B axis sub spindle that we never use because it dosent have enough horsepower like the main spindle and if trying to rough out inconel the spindle will literally stop while in the cut...We tried telling them before purchasing tje machines that a tailstock would be the way to go not a sub spindle...That's the only complaint i have with the 2600's....good luck with your business and have fun learning the lathes.

      @@cncmach6779 thanks for the comment. According to Doosan the main spindle has 25 hp and the sub spindle has 10 hp. I have not been able to stall it but I’m not surprised since we’re typically doing light finishing work with the sub. Even with exotic materials, I am curious what type of tool path can stall it and if the setup can be adjusted to allow it to work. A tail stock would have come in handy a few times for longer parts and I am still researching for a way to use a spring loaded live center in the sub. I know Royal sells them but they aren’t cheap.

    • @powermoveengineering

      That is awesome! Glad to have inspired something. Having easy access to an EDM must be nice. My original idea with making the collet pads was to make them from a single piece of round and then cut them apart using a slitting saw. But setting it up and finding the right tool didn’t seem worth it at the time so we just made them individually on the mill from some 2”x2” bar that we had leftover. Thanks for the comment and let me know how it goes!

  • @williamsamaro180
    @williamsamaro180 Před 6 měsíci +2

    Consider running the cutoff holder with the "flush side" toward the sub spindle, then pulling the part with the sub and staging the next part in the main during the transfer. This will give you the clearance on the main side and get you as close as needed on the sub side.
    Your part stick out on the main side will control the cutoff holder clearance when the parts are shorter and it's an issue.

It’s really hard to justify the cost of the collets unless you know you’re going to make hundreds or thousands of parts using it. Op2 geometry is usually oddball sizes so I think that’s where this system can really help in a bind. Thanks for the comment

    I have been very intrigued to see more people with the Lynx 2600SY machines. I got a quote for one of these back in 2022, and was surprised to see that your pricing was pretty comparable to what it was back then (although I do not think the dealer was giving me any sort of new customer discount). The 2600 makes so much more sense if you can afford it over the 2100 simply for having the BMT55 turret as well as more clearance, I think the 2600 has about a $50k premium over the 2100 if I remember. I have become a bit of a Mazak guy myself, but there are some limitations and things on their machines that really make me want to beat my head into a wall from time to time, so maybe going forward I will revisit the Lynx 2600SY when a new spindle is needed. Nice work!

    • @powermoveengineering
      @powermoveengineering  Před 6 měsíci

      My buddy got a 2100 one year before I purchased this machine and after seeing how cramped the turret became (especially for sub work), I knew I wanted the next size up. I don’t have any experience with Mazak but from what I understand the quality is top-notch and the mazatrol control can be a game changer for some. I personally don’t like programming at any machine and prefer posting completely finished code from a desktop, so I am happy with this setup.

    Really glad to see this video. I bought a 2012 Puma 2100SY last year and I have a bit of a love/hate with it. It's really an incredible machine. My frustrations are mainly in how it's been hard to make it work for me in the context of my business. I mostly do milled parts. Everything I do is lower quantity. So it's hard to take advantage of the best parts of the machine. Meanwhile the older fanuc control is annoying and the manuals are fairly useless. I have also found the live tooling to be really incapable of nice surface finishes. Maybe all of my live tool holders are just worn? I think it might be more about the nature of live milling.

It is certainly possible to justify the cost of slowly accruing Royal collets for your common production bar stock diameters, but the Op2 oddball sizes and shapes is where it really starts to make sense to have a cheap machinable option.

    If you wanted stronger workholding for the QG-80 if the soft jaws are getting beat up they also have a s-20 and s-30 adapter for the QG80 size. That would significantly save on costs as the pads are ~$120. Although now you're paying a significant cost up front to royal to get the adapter. Our two Nakamura lathes both have QG-65 on the main and sub and I cringe every time I buy collet or in some cases two because our shop decides to buy bastard material sizes. Factor in a extended spindle liner (in our case) for that bastard size and you're in nearly $1000 before you've cut a chip.

    Did you drill and tap the collet face or thread mill them? Can you explain how you made the segments, mill lathe or both?

    • @powermoveengineering
      @powermoveengineering  Před 6 měsíci +1

      For the 3" collet we clamped onto a piece of 3" cold rolled steel and then used a carbide drill and 4-40 thread mill. In order to accurately do this we needed to set a C-axis offset that would properly clock the collet. To set this offset we ended up indicating a vise parallel that was in contact with the pins of the Royal fixture shown in the video. It worked well but a degree or two of inaccuracy might be okay in this case. For the jaw segments, we make them in two operations on the mill using a big T-slot cutter so that the second operation is simply facing unused material on the back side. I tried to think of a way to make them more efficiently on the lathe but separating a single piece of round bar into 6 equal segments would be difficult from a tooling perspective. Hope this helps.

    Hi, please can I ask a quick question. We need to make some small cog parts which are similar in form to your throwing-star fidget spinners. Presumably you part these off and then finish the back side in a 2nd milling operation? I'm guessing you can't pass these off the sub-spindle and finish in a single operation because they are so thin?

    • @powermoveengineering
      @powermoveengineering  Před 5 měsíci

      We designed those parts to have no features on the backside so that they do not require a second operation. We use a “backside chamfer tool” to break all edges before parting off. However I do think it would be possible to pass these off to the sub spindle if needed. Would just need to make custom soft jaws to match the outer profile. We actually end up surface grinding the back side to make the knife edges sharp and improve the look. I can offer advice if you send me more info about the parts you need to make.

      The Y-axis motion shown at 8:34 in this video runs perpendicular to the X-axis. However this machine (and others similar to it) actually put the linear rails and ball screws at a 30deg angle rather than 90deg for rigidity and packaging reasons. The controller compensates for this and does all the math on the back end. So when you move the Y-axis only, it actually uses two different motors and calculates a sine function to put the tools where the g-code says.

Bench-top machines are very useful tools but it’s unrealistic to think that they’re competitive in the modern world. I would keep them as supplementary tools for quick and small tasks since they are great to have around a shop. What is preventing you from renting a 1000 square foot space and putting an air compressor and a decent mill in it? I would’ve worked out of a home garage if it was ever an option for me. Set up an S-corp, basic website, and get advice from a CPA. Everyone is so opinionated on taking out loans but I believe they are simply a requirement. Machines are much better investments than something like a car.. Just my two cents! Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks for the comment
