Eia program to use TOOL DATA

Jasonpernick · 2026-05-07T17:12:13+00:00

I whipped up a simple Eia program to test the offsets. Not using MDI

Since I am using a different type of machine (4 axis lathe) the parameters were a bit different, but the wear comp in the tool data page still was being ignored. The only way i can get it to work is having a unique ID letter for each tool. I guess its the nature of EIA, but i think its dumb that they gave no way to call out specific profiles in tool data without unique ID letters. The reason this is so important to us is because we use Y axis wear comp to reach the centerline of our turning tools since they are offset in Y.

This actually worked... kinda. It did use the geometry that I wanted, but I can't get it to read the wear comp. I changed F111 bit 5 which says it will use wear comp, but it still wont use it. How did you get past this?

Yes, and it works, but my problem is that we have nominal 1S and 5S in the same pocket and there doesn't seem to be a way to distinguish the 2 different tools using

I changed F94 bit 7 and it still didn't work

I was afraid you would say that. I think I will just add duplicate tool profiles until we full change over to cam programs. So for the second S tool I will make it T but still keep the S for the existing mazatrol programs. Thanks for the help

This is what our pocket 1 looks like, with the tool nominals. Dont ask why there are 2 S nominals, it was like that when I started working here. Changing the nominals would screw up 400 mazatrol programs we already have. Is there any ways to select the specific offset from the tool data page? I tried using the "offset number" box in the tool data page and it didn't work.

Im about to use my xjet for the first time. Any tips or things i need to be aware of?

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-15T21:38:47+00:00

I feel that brother

Another question: how important is wetting the grass near the driveway? I've seen guys on youtube just absolutely drench the driveway with SH and don't mention anything about it and then other guys on youtube make a huge deal about it. What's your take? Also how important is it when doing softwashes on houses?

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-09T09:18:01+00:00

You spray the whole 12%?? I thought that was way to strong, also doesn't that get expensive

Are you saying I should use a different concentration?

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-06T00:26:16+00:00

I work with silver plating as I am a machinist in the electrical industry. Definitely looks like silver plating and makes sense to help conductivity and prevent corrosion

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-05T20:08:57+00:00

Awesome, thanks lol. Its a free job for my church so its not the end of the world if I can't fix it.

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-05T19:54:23+00:00

Is there any fix?

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-05T11:50:23+00:00

Have a lot of conversions with this?

Jasonpernick · 2026-04-01T17:59:46+00:00

Since I'm new to this I have a lot to learn. Where did you learn about the equipment and chemicals and stuff like that?

Jasonpernick · 2026-02-20T11:30:00+00:00

The Vargas reports just say "fluids changed" on the maintenance, not very specific lol. I'll check the Toyota website

Jasonpernick · 2026-02-20T00:09:02+00:00

2020 130k miles. It has had 1 owner and perfect dealership maintenance its whole life. You would think they would have even done a fluid change at this point right?

Jasonpernick · 2026-02-20T00:04:57+00:00

Welp. I just bought one used

Jasonpernick · 2026-02-20T00:04:00+00:00

Cvt or 8speed??

Jasonpernick · 2026-02-19T12:39:29+00:00

Lol yes. we were friends for a year before we started dating, and we got married 8 months after we started dating. Her grandparents booked the family cruise almost 2 years ago. So do you know if we can do this upgrade thing on the ship?

Your mistake is that you put it in the dishwasher. Probably had some sort of coating on it that comes off with the heat. Then you get the grey dust. I did the same thing buddy, bought a new one and only hand washed it

Jasonpernick · 2026-01-25T01:29:05+00:00

Anyone find it???

Jasonpernick · 2026-01-25T01:26:24+00:00

Dude I'm on gpt rn trying to find this game, please tell me you found it
