HAAS...good machines, but sorry coolant pumps. And they give you the options to buy a 1000psi TSC that no needs and high pressure flood coolant that is a joke compare to other cnc brand.

How much the itemss

Great video 👍Love the raw footage without music too. I work on an extrusion blow moulder but I've learned a good number of things from your videos

I don't know anything about EDM. With this slow removal rate, would it be advantageous to rough the rib slots with a slitting saw on the mill and then use the EDM to finish them?

11:20 How did you manage to machine the 20 degree and 18 degree angles with a 3-axis machine on the block? And why does it have to be made of steel and not the same material as the 7075 aluminum mold?

There's a large market willing to pay for Alps keyboard switch replicas and keycaps and you're making silly toys for no money.

Awesome But When you’re hitting it you’re not driving a nail home Tap Tap Look for problems Sorry Not sorry ❤

Very cool, thanks for sharing. Any idea how much material depth is removed per plunge?

Do you use any simulation software for mold flow or shrinkage?

where should to take zero for z axis ??

you are going to pay for all that lifing and pulling when you get old . I know for a fact. just fyi

Where's the build list buddy?

Macchina impostata malissimo. Faccio questo lavoro da 11 anni e lavorare in mm è davvero scomodo e poco preciso, sicuramente meglio lavorare in ccm. Stessa cosa vale per le velocità di chiusura ed apertura dello stampo, meglio lavorare in mm/s. Quando si fa il seput con dei parametri cosi approssimativi come te il processo di stampaggio è pessimo. Po lo stampo fissato in quel modo non si può vedere

If the operator manages to figure this out , suggest you make a mold of her and replicate fast for export , then retire. 👌

This process is too complicated and it is too easy to make a mistake. I hope your operator is someone who is very careful. 90% of the workers that I have met in my life would probably ruin your mold within a week, half within a day. I find it more profitable to work in my shop solo.

Sorry but there is a primitive system.

We machine this kind of part in the company on 4X ...horizontal on hexagon pallet ...48 pcs....We also may machine on octagon pallet.

Waooo my dream job Can I please join you

DME makes a pneumatic coupler for center knock outs. they are a bit pricey but it will save you lots of swearing. also bump the nozzle back and forth a couple times to get the stuck sprue loose.

Shakespeare 😏the wacking of the sprew.😅

Thanks for the very detailed and instructive video. I have one question regarding the xml files and where to find them? I have a Wago Ethercat Fieldbus coupler connected to my Beckhoff EK1100 and on this Wago (750-354) I have a bunch of I/O modules connected to it. I have 8-channel DO and DI (750-430 & 750-530) but I can't find the xml driver files for thoose modules on the Wago website, it's nowhere to be found on any datasheet. Do you know where I can get them please?

to make it easier to set the position why not mount the dti by the dove tail on top of it so the dial sit horizontally?

I laughed way too hard at 26:58. Love the videos! There is not enough mold making / injection molding content on the internet.

Oh my ! Didn't know such things could happen to an alluminium mold ! Quite impressive, but i do think the clamping of the injection unit might be too strong (because i already used alluminium mold for high quantity of parts on a 160T hydraulic, the clamping of the injection unit was manual, so i could set it myself to low clamp and i never encountered the same problem you're facing in this video. I'm now using electric presses like you do with your 200T (Haitian if i'm not mistaken), and the clamping being automated goes directly to full clamp (But it is only a theory, i did not try to verify this particular point about the automatic clamp on electric). Hope there's a way to set to lower clamp your injection unit !

Would be greate to see new shop tour video, with robots in action! I checked, last one is 2 years old.

What milling machine do you have ?

Looks like System 3R pallet attached to an Erowa holder? I LOVE IT!!! I ran an EDM department for 10 years.

Great tip to avoid having to drill cooling channels! I'll put it in my sleeve for the future. I think Quinn at Blondihacks would have anneald the copper to make it softer during the install. Could be worth trying. Keep up the good work!

Haha, great! Even yesterday I remembered that you have spoken about cooling with screwable plates in one of the last videos - and there is the solution :-) What about conducting paste (I use a copper filled one for heating plates for some other projects) for the milled channel? Or isn't it necessary?

Why wouldn’t you just bolt the insulator plates to the mold. I would be afraid that that ejector rod would snap when running. Then finally why wouldn’t you torque those toe clamps in.

Bro look like Spider man, Peter Parker 👍👍👍

You take off the strap and crane before u close B half of mold....i make sure all 4 bolts are in bedore i take crane away just a safety with me but to each it own...also u dont use a level as well..

setup molds

didnt know you had a UMC

Who need’s fingers!

Great design injection molding 100/110🌷🌹

Take the carriage back before trying to remove a sprue

I need this job please share your location.. 3yr experience in manufacturing sector..

excellent video series

I started my apprenticeship as a mold repair guy. Before my school was done I had gotten laid off. That sent me into a job shop machinist environment. Now I am back in the mold shop and these videos are really helping me get back up to speed.

When I hired a similar sized machine to remove the old concrete floor in our barn, I also hired a hydraulic breaker attachment which made quick work of breaking up the concrete.

Nice! is that a VMX 30 ?

Do you have any videos on sliders or lifters? Other than the one that used hydraulic/pneumatic cylinders to assist?

I'm still learning a ton from your videos. Thank you for bringing us along.

This process is so interesting. The machining skill level is intriguing and outstanding! Thanks for sharing!!!

I find the ejection system more reliable and free moving if you added 4 bushes locked between the ejection plates to run on 4 dowls locked through the back of moving half back plate, then the push backs then can be slightly under diameter along with all the head of the ejector pin, very slightly floating between the plates. For what it takes, it's worth it.

Thanks again for taking us along in the process! It's all very interesting to me as I never did have opportunity to work around a mold shop.

Awesome. Sub and like.

So much I've seen wrong, can't watch anymore! you sir be safe, and you need to clean your shop. I have fired employees for leaving less of a mess! And for gods sake, get a safety panel over that control panel with all the exposed wires!

Why not use a locking coupler on ejector rod?
