i couldn’t be further away from your industry, i study medicine, but i gotta say it’s awesome to hear you shout out technicians, or any less visible but highly impactful jobs. And to be frank, the same thing applies to healthcare to the same degree at the very least; emergency responders and their assistants, nurses, facility staff, technicians, assistants, secretaries, physiotherapists, psychotherapists, social workers, pharmacists/technicians, medical researches/teachers and their assistants, they all have one thing in common. They make the healthcare world go round. Without them, every single hospital, clinic or whatever else one may find themselves to desperately need, would grind to a total f**** halt in a heartbeat. Every single one of them are just as important to patient care as a competent and compassionate(!) physician and we all should appreciate them for what they are, especially knowing the cold and heartbreaking reality that they are the ones that are most likely to receive the brunt of anger and disrespect healthcare workers unfortunately have to experience, sometimes to the point of grievous bodily harm or worse.

Nice to get a shout-out. As an FSE for CNC machines, I can confirm that there's a lot of work you need to do lying on the floor. If you don't set the machine perfectly level then that deviation will translate to the rest of the machine in multiple ways. It's also not uncommon to need to give a component a calibrated kick for alignment.
Iv used the same method for alignment when I was a welder before I was a machinist, I had to make a 100 ft conveyor and frame perfectly straight on center, level within about .030, manually, with a metal wire, no laser, all manual, so I appreciate seeing this done in a different situation Donnie.
Hell yeah! Now we are talking! These are such amazing machines for small parts. I'm working with 6 of them at my shop and I got to tell you, man, those are a blast. Incredibly accurate and easy to set up as well. So excited to see Swiss Nano content coming to Titans of CNC soon!
Thought you were going to say that people are so excited they get speeding tickets on the way to your shop. Your excitement and enthusiasm is such a fantasic bennefit to Titans of CNC. Your on camera personality and humor is untoppable. How did you come to make this place your home. That would make a good episode all by itself. All of you guys in a video telling what led up to your employment here. It would easily make a good half-hour video. There's got to be some really good stories.
I'm an electrician and we use tons of wedge anchors (those things going in the ground). I suggest you get the proper tool for driving those anchors in, they had a thing called a set tool which has a sort of dimple to fit over the point of the anchor. If you use the actual drill bit to drive them in you're going to dull it faster. If you're doing it a handful of times I guess it's fine but not when you have to drive in a lot.
7:40 As a HAAS tech, the "I went too far, srotry of my freaking life" is very accurate and valid self talk lol Thanks for the shoutout brother, stay cutting, not crashing 😉
Thank you for sharing all your tips. I live in a place close to Moutier (city of Tornos) where most of workshop has Swiss Type NC lathe. However, nobody has make a video like you. You make all machining disciplines attractive through your videos. Congratulation !
I know this isn't about the CNC machining but I bought a dirt chip brushless ryobi drill and for the purpose of using it when I didn't want to thrash my good drills and equipment and now after abusing the damn thing for ever it still works fantastic, dropped off roofs, fell in water, left in the sun, run the absolute piss out of it and it still works just as good as the day I bought it and is half the price of everything else, so it definitely changed my look on ryobi for sure lol some of their stuff is no half bad.
Donnie, that looks like a super wicked machine. You are going to have so much fun with that one, you could probably make tiny landing gear for RC model planes with that thing. Looking forward to seeing it all setup and doing its first cuts.
I remember spending a week at LNS to see the different trades. It was very interesting. The thing that really made me laugh was a durability test where they jammed a loader with a steel bar. The sound the machine made trying to turn was deafening. I was told that this test had been going on for at least a week. This is where i used a lathe for the first time. I was even able to assemble a control panel. 18 yo me had lot of fun.
here in France we call this kind of turning lathe "décolleteuses", you can come to learn how it work here in technic valley of the Haute Savoie or in Switzerland near Geneva, where there are plenty of factories with these machines
Love this video - so fun! A new toy for Donnie. Kudos to the videography, as usual; top notch. Those overhead shots were great. And tell Chris congrats on the new addition to his family!
Massive Gratitude Guy's...and Grand Rising Cosmic American Star'$, YOU ARE YET RISING TO THE TOP..... This is why I Subscribed...yep Chicago is STILL WATCHING.
I don't know if you've heard of Escomatic (again a swiss brand), but they make even smaller automatic lathes using a technology that allows the tools to rotate around the material, thus completely eliminating the need for a feeder.
Escomatic used to make a 2mm max capacity machine. As you said, tools rotate, stock is coiled and passes through straightener before machining. Often, these clowns show their ignorance of machining. I'm sure they make money ways other than making parts.
It's funny seeing you say this is the smallest mill you have when it's still bigger than any of the mills in the dental lab i work in. Our smallest mill is a 4 axis wet mill capable of milling titanium dental implants and glass ceramic crowns and its like 12"x18"x18". Even our largest 5 axis wet mill is 6'x4'x3'
Filming inside that thing is going to be fun, not much room and the oil is going to be everywhere. I do look forward to seeing it working. Thanks for sharing. Charles
Also, the movements of the machine and the parts are so small that most moves don't even look like anything is happening. Only time I can tell mine is moving is when I move to the next tool. Cuts are so small you don't see much movement at all with the oil spray.
i got a story about drilling concrete. one time we were framing a house and anchoring down the walls. turns out the concrete was full of agate gravel. that stuff is hard to drill !!!
good lookin out, i didn't catch that initially. ngl, safety glasses and dust control are always good ideas but putting your fingers under a one-ton-ish piece of equipment hanging off a strap from a forklift seems straight up crazy.
These LNS Tryton feeders have an individual tube that holds one bar at a time and will advance to the next bar by rotating to the next barrel. The tube is pressurized with oil as a bearing to keep the thin, long bars from binding when the bar is turning. Because this bar feeder has oil in the individual tube that holds the bar to be aligned with the spindle, the proper method is to use the string since laser through the oil tube is not a good solution. Hope that makes sense.
A-10 WARTHOG canon. 🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅 Hi guys, your barfeader looks like the 7 barrel canon of the Fairchield A-10 WARTHOG ...............BRRRRRRRRRRRRTTTTTTTT...................🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅🔅
What will be the next machine? a full blown Waldrich Siegen perhaps, and maybe a Starrag Heckert, and a Droop and Rein and you can throw in a WFL Millturn for good measure. Oh and if you really want get a Kern as well .
Oh my lort the welds on that bar feeder height screw nut at 8-fifty lol... But... Serious question, which I'm not sure is a stupid question, never worked with a bar feeder before, does this thing spin the entire length of bar for the machining operations? Or does it snip it in between each operation? I've only ever seen in videos like this the part being parted off, more bar being fed in, and then the last butt of the bar stock getting discarded. Never seen individual snips of bar stock. I'm just having a hard time imagining the whole length of bar starting and stopping and twisting and slinging around in the feeder at 9-16k rpm through machining operations without galling itself up or work hardening/twisting, especially with tiny brass rods. How does that work?
true, that must have been the weirdest new machine day ever in that shop. Even the EDM and additive Department machines recently added, have been bigger.
I have been watching this show for a while now. Does anybody understand their business model now? They been racking multimillion dollar equipment in many different ways of manufacturing.

Does that kick come with NIST traceability?
I can't listen to this guy for more and a minute, was really interested in the CNC but not willing to pay this price.

That mad men : "no, I don't think i will"
Thanks for the shout-out to us service guys.
Been fixing machines for 10 years, my knees are feeling it lol
You can tell this guy's work is exact. He pulled that knife precisely towards his face.

Fan fact: "Tornos" is the Greek word for "lathe"

The Gatling bar feeder is nuts
Unboxing and installing CNC machines must be the one of the most satisfying jobs in the world.

Wow!! I got a little excited when I saw the splash screen with that nano size Swiss-a-fier. It’s still an amazingly small machine, but …
Its amazing how a badass sleeve cancels out chubby, pasty, nerdy! So cool!

Love these videos we drill stainless down to .0045 dia and after 40years of being a machinist I still love this stuff
Donnie's looking good, the man has a future in video for sure.
Idk why i am watching this .. i literally work with two of these every single day 😩😂😂 .. nice vid 🔥
Boom Donnie! Great tip on how to get the bar feeder aligned with the string!👏Looking forward to this making parts!
I can't wait to see this in action!
From the biggest Tornos machine to the smallest one BOOM 💥
Donnie is funny af 😂
man, this is just an ad for Tornos
