Ha, bet you thought this was spam? Still reading? Well, I’ve got a CNC converted lathe, and I found that on cross-slide operation I was getting very poor results when going at 60mm a minute, but 50mm and 70mm were fine. I figured it was just some odd resonance and resolved not to got at 60mm Ok, now I had to do a lot of leadscrew work and was wondering if there was anything similar. So I ran at various different speeds. Well, 100mm a minute, fine; most up to 500mm also, but 175???? Ouch. That sounds bad. Really bad. The machine was shaking like a loudspeaker cone. And all the swarf from every single inaccessible crook and granny of the lathe shook out and juddered over to a neat heap in the corner of the tray.
Sweet! Makes cleaning a snap!!! (All I’ve got to do now is figure out if that M6 grub screw was anything vital…) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Dive into the World of Parallel Programming The Go Parallel Website, sponsored by Intel and developed in partnership with Slashdot Media, is your hub for all things parallel software development, from weekly thought leadership blogs to news, videos, case studies, tutorials and more.
