thegeekgroup.org/ - Measuring offsets with a piece of paper is a thing of the past. Chris and KC (our Director of CNC) cover how to get extremely accurate tool offsets using the Haas VF-2's built-in programming and a Renishaw tool probe.

Was this the last video in the CNC series would of liked to of seen a video on the work probe your Video's are real easy to follow along and learn.

Jesus even Haas must be confusing spot and center drill... the picture said center but the text gets entered as spot after you select option 5 haha. Learned a lot from this video, thanks guys really appreciate it!

is there any tool setter for cnc lathe that can be used for automatic tool offset

Do you plan to make a video showing how to program the probe using macros stored on the mill?

Chris, How much does it cost to do the training and how long does it last?thanks.

Dear sir thank you so much for the information but by some source I have hear that the tool of of diameter below 12 is consider as non rotating tool while probing please make a video on it and explain in a brief about rotating and non rotating tool

It's THAT easy. Thank Renishaw for that I'm sure you need to know the old fashioned way too right?... Right?!

Rotating the tool while measuring the diameter also compensates for tool run out. :-)

The problems with that is your stylus sphere now becomes an ellipse. That makes 3D probing inaccurate. Another thing is, how do you know which side it touches? You don't. The touch is instantaneous. One time you probe it would be touching on one side of the OD. The next time you touch, on the other side. If your probe is only .001" off center you could get up to .002" difference in probing accuracy.

Chris, Chris, CHRIS! Why the Mohawk? You are one of the LAST people I would expect to do that. Are you having some kind of identity crisis? :)

RonN448 If you watch the Captain's Blog series (Chris' personal video blog) you will note that he's had a mohawk off-and-on for decades. The last time was circa 2009. It's just a thing that appears from time to time, especially in the heat of summer.

thegeekgroup Awesome. Thumps up for the mohawk.

@RonN448 9 жыл бұрын

thegeekgroup Thank you for the explanation! I almost never check the blog, and I'm pretty sure that I was not subscribed to The Geek Group in 2009, so that's got to be the reason I never saw him sporting a Mohawk. Thanks, again!

This tool setter would not be able to measure the tool data for some boring bars, would it? At least, it is not able to, automatically.

+Stephan Fong i've never done it on a haas vmc, but on our "mori seiki" cnc hmc you tell the tool offset page that it is a single insert cutter or like on this haas, single flute, and approx diameter. it works just fine. note that our set ups that require boring bars the majority of the material has been hogged out already, the b-bar only does the semi finish, then adjusted by hand, you can reprobe at this stage but i find it redundant, as the machine is still just going to the center of the hole, then we run the finish pass. i know on one aluminium manifold that we do, 750mm x 1500mm has multiple bores, we use two b/bars one set at semi/finish size, and one at finish, no adjustments are made, but we use tool wear detection, once either tool is out of tolerance, the machine alarms out, we get two 8hr shifts normally before we have this problem. as they are both only taking 0.5mm cuts on diameter. also use the work probe to check for ovality ,tapper and tolerance accuracy. have a good bro = )
