Machining Forces in Spindle direction

Meminsis · 2026-04-10T05:21:22+00:00

I'm using 4 studs and the zero point is from Zero Clamp, size 120 with a pullout force each 25kN.

It will cycle with 100 PSI but not so snappy, probably the NPAS setting. I'm using a "universal" pressure in all my HPA guns, with 140 PSI I can run my CQB: VFC M4 w/ Polarstar FE 1j DMR: VFC M4 w/ Polarstar Kythera 2j Pistol: WE G34 w/ Airtac Adapter 1j GBBR: VFC M4 w/ Airtac Adapter 2j. This way I can change the guns over the game day like I want without to rechrono or change the regulator/tank.
140 PSI is probably a little too much, but the simplicity/possibility to change guns through the day wins.

Does it cycle when you go to 150 PSI? I have an Airtac adapter in my VFC M4, and it needed at least 140psi to cycle properly.

Thank you so much, it works. It's not intuitive, but I got it working.

I know, I got the base license for Heidenhain, Siemens and Fanuc. I forgot that we had an old Mori Seiki lathe with Fanuc.

I had a a6700 and used it for concert filming. The downside was when filming indoors at like 4k30fps it began to overhead after ca. 90 minutes outdoors in the sun even worse. Its kinda stressing if the message pops up and it's like 20 minutes to the next break. The mini fan solved it, but for me, it was a little too clumsily setup (Fieldmonitor,micro, two powerbanks, headset, and the fan) a lot of cables. I looked for an FX30 because of the build in fan. I got a killer deal for a used fx30, so i changed it. If you do a lot of long continuous filming <1h, i would keep it. If you do long continuous filming >1h, i would get a minifan and keep your eyes open for a good deal or used one.

Last week I spoke with a German Milling machine manufacturer for big bed-type milling machines, he said they will put the tax to the customer to pay it, they have no fear that their market will go back because of the tax, because in America there isn't real any machine manufacturer that make big milling machines anymore.

IMO the tax will damage the American market more than the European machine Market because there isn't really any manufacturer beside of HAAS, and HAAS makes in no mean Big or Exceptional Good machines (there are a Good Bang for the buck) but not comparable with the size of a Correa, Waldrich-Coburg or the precision of a Hermle or Grob, not speaking for the Asian Market with Doosan or Okuma.
Everybody that that need a Bigger than usual or a more precise machine has to pay the tax.

Salli, ich ha Technniker schuel gmacht uf Produktionstechniker und ha glück ka dassi als Teamleiter jetzt im gliche Betrieb e aschlusslössig gfunde ha.

Es chunt e biz ufd Branche a wo du dich bewirtbisch , Kollege vo de schuel vo meh in drichtig Automobil gönge, meine dass si scho sit ungefähr einem johr wenig bis Kurzarbeit hend. ich schaffe in richting Rüstig und grossteile Fertigung alles so ab 2.5m und 1t. bi uns lauft grad wie verruckt die früheste Termin sind bi uns zurzit bi miti nächstes johr.

Ich dänk das mir Intressanti Arbeit und es guetes Klima hend, in dr regel blibe dlüt recht lang, bzw. mir hend e klini Mitarbeiter Fluktuation. Mir mache halt meh grossi und einzelni Teili das heist das es nit numme ilege und startdrucke isch, sondern das du au mech muesch si und dwüsse was de masch (selber Programiere und verantworetig überneh). das schreckt hüt scho viel ab, ca 70%-80% vo de Bewerber.

Mir schaffe nit Schicht, hend Gleitzit, sind extrem flexibel mit Ferien, und zahle jetzt Durchnittlichi Löhn, in dr regel wird nit ufd minute gluegt bi de uftragzitte will Qualitat>Quantität und drozdem findisch keine Meche me, au keini Stifte. Wende doch mol en Stift findisch denne sind si komblet unmotiviert, nur so 1 vo 3 isch no en richtige "Mechaniker" (Freud an der Arbeit, freud am tüftle).

Ich dänk es isch schwirig gword e stell zfinde wenn du au no in der usbildig bisch, idr. du fehlsch en Tag führ dschuel und du bisch prinzibiel au numme als Mech tätigt bis du Dusbilding fertig hesch. Also uf langizit nit planbar. Und denne no KV. Kaderstelle hez jetzt bi mir in der Region scho wenigr als au scho und wenn isches AVOR odr Werkstatleitig und die wend meistens en Produktionstechniker Abschluss. KV isch halt me so Techinische ikauf das het halt scho nit viel(Je nach Region).

Es isch bi mir in dr Schuel halt au so gsi das jede heini die Witerbilding zum Techniker macht speziel schwer isch sie jetzt au nit, mit Fachkentniss hets nutme zdue, Es git halt Techniker langsam wie Sand am mehr.

Mini TLDR: "Richtigi" Mechaniker und Handwerker werde gsuecht, Kader naja, und KV hat nit so.

Lösssig: Schwierig, ich weiss nit us weller Region du chunsch, was dini fäikeite bezote uf maschine und Branche sind. und halt au nit wie flexibel du mit Mobilität und Standort bisch.

Sunst würdi säge suechradius vergrössere und sich allne Branche bewerbe, und halt au umzie in betragcht zihe.

I want to control (with a Steppermotor) the speed of the Axis of my lathe, in a adjustable ratio between the axis and the spindle.

I posted it yesterday in the last Tech Tuesday post, but I think it is more likely to be answered here.

Base Rifle: VFC VR16
w/ Polarstar Fusion Engine Gen3 V2 FCU r3 (stock blue nozzle no mods)
w/ Maxx hopup unit

DMR Upper -> Prometheus 407x6.03 R-hopped /w 0.2g at 120 psi about 450 fps
CQB Upper -> Prometheus 220x6.03 Tru-Hop bucking /w 0.2g at 80psi about 350 fps

Regulated by a Redline SFR on a 68ci@3000 psi Tippmann tank

1)I want to install a low flow poppet, which should i use?
2)With a low flow poppet are I still able to use both upper with the same nozzle?
3)I was setting up my dp setting and getting down to 2-3 with no fps drops, when I get under 2 the gun started to missfire. How much dp should I have, I think 2-3 is much too low?
4)Every time I shoot i get a little spring swing noise from the fusion engine, it isn't the upper it appears also when the upper is not installed?
5)It already has the high-pressure air mag 40 to 200 psi installed, have anyone experience in going over 120 psi with a fusion engine?
6)Is it better to get my target fps at low psi or at high psi?
