    For those old machines, you need to setup transmit delay of 10 to 50 ms per line, if you want to use tape to run programs, or it will overfill buffer.

    Lol just go to a couple shops on the East Coast. One of the companies I work with are still using Bandits for control on production machines, as well as several machines from the 80s just like this one (Hardinge, Fadal, etc.). A lot of companies still use their original CNC machines, right next to their brand new Haas and DMG Moris and such. That being said, it is really cool to see old machines renovated and used. They are still great for producing all sorts of parts.

    I owned and ran several of these for 20 years. When you first power up and send the machine home, zero out xyz on the universal position page by hitting x then the org button, y org then z org. Then pick up your part zero and those will be your g54 numbers. It’s easier on those machines to set tool lengths from z home position. Send z home, make sure your g54 has 0 in the z position, then hit the measurement button to turn the green light on. Bring your tool to the top of the part, then on the offset page cursor to the correct tool number and hit the write button, it will overwrite the offset with the length from machine zero and send the z axis home.

    What a trip down memory lane! I remember setting up HP Unix workstations for the CAD guys, and then building a cheap beige box PC with Linux and multi-port serial cards to do the drip-feeds to all the CNC gear in a shop. While these old controllers might go faster than 9600 baud, they may not be reliable above that speed. Since G-code has no checksums, serial line noise cannot be detected by the receiver and in worst case, can lead to a machine crash ... so going faster is not worth the risk.

    Yasnacs are notoriously picky about rs 232 cummunications. They dont like being run above 4800 baud. You load the programs from edit. O-9999 will allow you to download one or multiple programs. You set parameter 6005 to the height of your touch off block. Fixture offsets are in the setting numbers, you set the fixture offset from MDI with G10. These are not ancient machines, they just are not smart phones. The ,manuals explain the operation of the control very well. That Matsurra will still be making parts when a Haas has become a beer can....Those machines have POWER, you program them differently, you use bigger cutters and take big cuts. They can be programmed using adaptive clearing strategies, but they run out of memory quick, 128k was max, most had 32k. That will push a 4" face mill 3/8 deep thru 4140 without wincing, and it will do it quietly. Using macro and smart programming will go a long way. It aint all about speed, anyone can use a cam system, not everyone did the time to be a toolmaker. Thats a beast, hardly ancient.

When a firm that owned one of the others d3cid3d to upgrade, my boss bought their old CNC centre for a spare. The control board on the original machine packed-up, so they rigged up the 2nd machine to discover the board on that was also faul5y. Their solution eas to 0ay a specialist controls company to fit a new control system to the old machine. It cost them £25,000 but gave them the ability to load a drawing straight from their CAD program and run it. The control company end3d-up buying the spare machine and doing the same to it.

    I Used one like this when I was an apprentice, crazy powerfull one of our machines ran into its hard stop and pulled out X axis ballscrew spindelnut. We ran these machines with EdgeCam, so it´s not a problem running long programes. The most annoying thing with them is the way the Z offset is made. it´s Z 0 on the table and you type the distance from the table to the top of the work. And you can´t see the absolute Z value for the tool in the spindel.

    Yup, we have two CT40 holders that we use on our machine (the rest are BT40), just need to use a shorter stud in order to pull the holder fully in to contact with the taper. And yes you need to load them manually, while the plastic holder in the tool changer does catch them somewhat it is definitely not secure to use it that way.

IMO never measure an endmill unless you do regrinds which I also think no one should do. Drills are the only thing I ever find myself needing to measure.

    im 30 seconds into the video, so (being an old cnc machinist) my guess is you will need to learn a lot of the original code from the old machine, like tool change, offsets, possibly spindle start\ speed\ feed etc, and incorprorate that around the f360 tool path codes.

    I'm running fusion 360 into a mid 1990's FANUC M12. With 3d parts I got a lot of shudder from 9600baud not transferring the data fast enough. I went through the post and took out all the N numbers, the leading and trailing zeros and made it only output addresses that are changed in that line. Basically, reduced the amount of data being transferred. The other thing I did, because I'm running wood only in that machine, is I made it only output three places after the decimal instead of four. I had to go into the parameters of the machine and increase the allowable arc errors for it to run, but I got it to work. You can see it working for a few seconds here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/moucrbOHibK7nto.html

They drip fed 6 machines from a single computer on navy pier... the machines you are try to drip feed to were doing it when they were new. I don't see what difference your "modern code" makes. You're not doing anything special or new. thank you for your videos, I do enjoy them.
