The first thing I did was talk to Fanuc when Amada could not help me and that was a no go. I never thought about Rob but he has been great for us so I will try him. The hard drive is being cloned as we speak but if I'm too late and the drive can't be fixed my only other option is to find one I...
We have an Amada FO4020NT where the hard drive is starting to fail. Amada in CA can't help us so I'm reaching out to see if someone can make me a copy if I send them a new hard drive. I work for Innova ind. in Fergus Falls Mn my work number is 218-739-3226 EX 209. Thanks
I'm looking for someone who updated there nesting software from Ap100 Alfcam4. I've been using this program for 17 years and would like to find one for home so I can do my personal stuff.
We use Predator software Inc. We purchased Sigmanest many years ago and while it was being setup we had 3 people quit in the middle of the setup so we never did get it working.
I've been doing our own for 20 years because they seem too stay clean longer but you need the proper soap, isopropyl alcohol and Texwipe. I just did 3 lasers on Saturday but cleaning them is one thing now you have to do the alignment and that can be scary until you do it for some time.
Here's the code for the slot .5 x 1.5 so if you need more cut in the X just change the P and for the Y change the K. I also attached some of my training pages on the G98 line it will show how the first part is always a...
We do this all the time with ours and it works our great. One problem you have is heat issues so what I did to reduce the sheet warping was to make several programs all with G98 lines. I made a program that would cut every 4th hole in the x and y. Take the same program and move it to cut the...
We do all that so how to do it will never be a problem. I was just curious if you have people remove the laser scale when they make the parts or if they ask you to remove the scale when you make them.
When you did the program did you do it if it was 1/2 steel so the M102 line looks like M102(HRS0.500) and than change the material thickness on the cut condition page to 1.00? Because we set up a wood condition that every time we cut a sheet the head would retract and never come down next thing...
You can change the G50 to M97 at the bottom of the program this will run the program over and over. Now if you have 2 beds in order to get them to shuttle at the top of the program add a M707 under the G130.

Look at the focus on condition 2. We used this material to etch a tube so in order for us to remember where the focus was we copy it to condition 2. One of the first things I teach them is the only focus line that is used is the first so use the others so you can keep track of your changes...
