This one goes through how to do "wrapping". th-cam.com/video/rwIBEGZC5mc/w-d-xo.html

Thanks for watching !

Hi nogoprecision. If you are talking about the XYZ coordinate arrows when you open a CS, it is automatic now. I believe Gibbs implemented this in around the 2022 version. There isn't anything to turn on or off, it is just there, unless you turn off the grid. Thanks for watching!

Volumill will always be changing feed rates based on what it conceives as chip load on the end mill. Example, a long straight cut could go your programmed feedrate, but a small arc at that feedrate would overstress the end mill and chip load, especially going into corners where is might snap off the tool. Hope this helps. You could change to just a Roughing process, where is using only one feedrate, but normally you have to slow down the feed rate if you don't want the end mill to break in corners. Thanks for watching.

You are correct that we can combine bodies as needed. This is just a sample on how to do it. It is YOUR choice on what you want to combine or keep as separate. Just an example. Calm down. Thanks for watching though.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials Calm down? People could see how to do it after the first 2 bodies. An additional 10+ minutes were wasted on parts that absolutely do not matter. There's so many things that could have been covered instead. I followed this tutorial to the letter which was a bit different than what I experienced on my end (V24.0.60) and there's still several things that don't work right. When I run the machine sim on a part. I set the POV lock correctly and make sure everything is set to visible yet the table and Y axis does not show up and no matter what options I choose the Z axis moves in and out on the Y axis (and correctly on the Z axis) The bodies ARE in the correct folders in the machine manager and the coordinates are setup correctly. Everything behaves fine in the Test Machine tab with the sliders.

@@Mochinist-bk6yj See link above to download the completed machine sim.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials I loaded your tutorial model and was getting the same result. So I started looking into why this was happening and found that in the document control under the machine tab that it was still set to the regular 3-axis mill rather than the correct sim machine. Changing that fix all the movement issues and everything behaves correctly now.

@@Mochinist-bk6yj Glad you got it working. Remember when you run Machine sim, you need to fill out the lower portion of the Document Control section. The numbers that go in there are from your origin of your part to the center of the table that was set up in the MDD. The Z would be from the bottom of your vise to your origin. This would be a positive number. This will move your part up.

Your are mistaken. The GenIII DMU50 has a B-axis travel of 145 deg. -35d +110.

I am being dead..We produce this kind of parts..on mill-turn..cuz very risky on milling machines....nakamura tome....machine dedicated for these parts....multitasking double spindles..lef right....finish op1...transfer in spindle 2...and finish.

@@Hanal503 Nakamura machines are very nice !

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials I know...We are using these machines...including automation....robo job.

See the answer I sent you 7 months ago. These are just examples of the different kind of toolpaths. I never said this is how you should cut it.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials We know that....but who see that...will say that this is the correct programming...but in final...it is not.

This was just an example of how you can control the tilting of the tool through a part. This was not a video on travel limits or undercutting. You could also put tilt lines on the opposite side to reverse the tool approach. Thanks for watching !

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials... the biggest problem.....in reality that example can not be machined....like this.

@@Hanal503 Actually this can be done very easily. See link...th-cam.com/video/v_kjJoYZ3ZA/w-d-xo.html

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials 😄😄😄 you make me smile.

Yes, you can. If you double-click on a operation, then go to the process it loaded, then right-click again and click on "Save Process list" which will open a window and ask you where you want to save it. You can rename this anything you like. It also saves the tool you used. Then when you start to create a new part, and maybe you want to use that same process, you can just right-click the process box and choose "Load Process List", which will load that same process and create the tool, then all you need to do is maybe adjust your depths, etc, and you are good to go. You can also set a folder to "always" look in that folder each time. Many customer create processes for specific tools and materials, then they can just load a process and all it good to go.

Yes, you are correct ! Thanks for watching.

Sorry, I do not. I have not made one. Doing a 5-axis simulation sim would take a very long time. Just like this one here, you can start with a 5-axis machine in Gibbs then clone it for your own machine, then start importing the models and start to "tweak" everything to work correctly, and then you would need to test the rotations, etc on a real machine to see if the rotations are all correct. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching. Once you learn Gibbs you will be much faster in using it.

Thank you for watching. Yes, Swiss machining can boggle my mind. It is a lot different than standard machining, but not too difficult to program in Gibbs.

That is for another video. If you want to know what the 33% is, it has a lot to do if you have a pocket and want to drill out the corners prior to machining the pocket. Again, that will be in another video. This one was just for drilling prior to using Volumill. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for letting me know. I will have to look into this further, and go over how the inter-ops works. Within the last few years Gibbs has put out what they call "Master" posts, that will have all the necessary inter-ops and other features in the MDD, and then is usually what they start with when creating a post for a customer. Thanks for watching.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials thanks for your response. I will say I have been seeing improvements to the post edits in the last year or two. Know when I get my post back, I get a document about stating the changes that have been made.

Yes, they started doing that this year so customers know what was changed/requested, whereas before we had to open up the guts of the post to read all the notes.@@cncmilljunkie

Yes, you are correct. Sorry. They added it a year or two ago. Maybe it's time to upgrade? Thanks for watching!

Here is a link to the .mac file. It does look like there are options to use mm instead of inch, but you can take a look and modify if needed. www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/ia7lud1jrho8y3o0bl85q/h?rlkey=t0d0ea2h044v7qqn9b6bawe1v&dl=0

Thanks for quick reply. It's this file that comes with the macro so it's the one I'm already working with. I am not a programmer but as I understand it, the macro takes information from the mill part and checks if it is INCH or MM, and recalculates the values to INCH if it is MM to calculate where the part should be placed in the vise. My question is more about whether it is possible to enter the three editable values at the top in MM instead of INCH. If anyone knows if this is possible, please let me know what needs to be changed, thanks.@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials

I solved it! If anyone else who doesn't use INCH wants to do the same, then only delete all *25.4 in the MAC file (9 occurrences). Then the three values at the top must be written in MM. 😃

Glad you got it working !@@JonasBohden

I haven't done one for a lathe yet, but working on it. Thanks for watching !

You are correct, but my example is only for a 3-axis mill, not a 4th axis mill. Thanks for watching!

You need to make sure you choose a 4-axis vertical mill when programming. If you choose a 3-axis mill you will not be able to program the 4th axis.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials thank got it working

Thanks for watching !

Sorry, I do not have permission to send Haas digital files. Best if you contact Haas and see if they can provide you one. Their files used to be free to download from them, but not sure if that has changed.

It's free through HAAS, but I had to email support and ask for the model for my machine. Just make sure to ask for a solid model file. They originally sent me an STL mesh file which will not work. They resent me a .step file and that worked fine.

@@Mochinist-bk6yj Thanks, that's good to know! Thanks for watching.

If you are using the machine I set up, make sure your Machine is a 3-axis vertical mill, then import the model. If the last time you used Gibbs, and had it set to a horizontal mill, or something else Gibbs will import the model into that machine. Always start a new bland file, choose a 3-axis vertical mill, then import the machine model. Hope this helps.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials thank u for all the effort that u made in those vedios we would like to see more vedios like this

Another coming on Friday.

This video is one that shows how to machine on main using a SLUG, then transferring to the sub-spindle. If you are machining from a billet, then parting off, then transfer to the sub-spindle, the use of the Utilities process changes a bit. I might do another video in how to program using a long bar. As far as your 5-axis post, the post department sets up the MDD in accordance on how the customer wants to program. I normally like to program from COR (center of rotation), which works very well. Some programmers like to program from the table top, but depending on how the customer wants to program will be how the MDD is set up. Also A and B axis sometimes have limits. You can always have the post department change the MDD to how you want to program 5-axis parts. You would need to be on Maintenance, as Gibbs does send out posts for older versions. If you are on Maintenance, then there will be a post charge normally, then you would have aprox 6 months to have them make any other changes at no-charge. Hope this helps.

Thanks for watching

I might work on that next.

​@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorialsawesome 👍👍👍👍👍👍

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials Maybe you can show us how to make the HAAS UMC machine

I am working a simulation, but probably not a UMC to start with, as those get really complicated. @@deals2sale

Normally you use MTG (move tool group) to get the turret out of the way before bringing the sub-spindle forward to get the part. Also if per say you brought up the sub spindle, then parted the bar, you don't want the turret to move back in Z, otherwise you might crash into the sub spindle, you just want the turret to retract in X before the sub-spindle goes home. Shift part. Many times your part is too long to make the cut holding with just the main spindle because of vibration, etc, so you cut some of the part, then grab with the sub, pull out some, then keep machining the rest of the part. That is where you use Shift Part.

I am waiting for a reply from Gibbs to see if they moved the file, or it is no longer avialable. Should hear back soon. I have the file, but I can't link directly, as that might violate Haas rights.

It looks like Gibbs stopped the Machine Sim models availability for Haas machines. You can though download the models directly from Haas, but you would need to adapt Machine Sim to the model. There are Gibbs tutorials on how to do that. Here is the link from Haas to get the models. th-cam.com/video/PbqsWSmYnFs/w-d-xo.html

Normally MDD's and VMM's are supplied by Gibbs post department. Note though that not all cnc's need a mdd and vmm. Once you have a machine that has say high-pressure coolant, air-blow, or other accessories that require special M-codes, etc, then you would get a MDD. Since the NLX3000 does not have a sub-spindle, you would not need a vmm. If it has a programmable tailstock you can request to have the tailstock part of the post, but normally you don't need it on a tailstock, as you have to manually set the tailstock distances anyway, then it's just one line of code to activate the tailstock (M25, M26). The cmx1100v is a 3-axis vertical with/without a 4th axis. That would not need a vmm either. Maybe a MDD if you have specific options. If you just received the post processors, you have time to test and then you can request some post changes if you need to add some specific options (hp coolant, air-blow, etc). Then the post department will probably put them in a specific MDD for you. Note: Some GibbsCAM resellers do their own posts, but for the most part Gibbs post department does them. Hope this helps.

Not sure what is going on with your part. You should be able to click INSIDE of the arrow to change directions. You might want to check your video card specs under Device Manager, then go to the video card mfg to get an update. I have seen issues with older video card drivers. Most video card mfg's update their drivers every few months. Also make sure your Windows updates have been updated.

@@GibbsCAMVideoTutorials Looks like i solved it , your suggestions did nothing by the way (Nothing is old , the software is shitty/picky about the hardware). Thanks for replying tho'
