Listen "Trunnion Troubles --- Ep. 74"
Episode Synopsis
The podcast segment features AJ and Harrison discussing their recent experiences with machining and 5-axis work. Harrison shares his struggles with setting up a 5-axis machine, particularly with calibration and tramming. He mentions a program he obtained that significantly helped him dial in the machine, making the process much easier and faster. Harrison talks about the increasing demand for 5-axis work and his preference for it over 3-axis work, despite some initial challenges. They also discuss the limitations of their current machine (Haas VF-3 with a trunnion) and speculate about future machine upgrades, considering brands like Doosan and DMG Mori. Overall, they express optimism about the potential for increased efficiency and profitability once they have their machines fully dialed in.
