FAMILY OF PARTS (F.O.P.) MIGRATED TO ESPRIT SOLIDTURN

This CNC machining video posted on YouTube 11/07/2018 is of a high volume core product component offered by OEMs, distributors and value added resellers in the Food, Beverage, Diary and Pharmaceutical Industries.
It is the L14AM 1" TUBE 2" TRICLAMP BUTT WELD FERRULE manufactured to 3A and BPE standards. It was used as the BASELINE PART for a LATHE FERRULE, END CAP and ADAPTER FAMILY OF PARTS MACHINING PROCESS.
(Note simulation video is of the AUTOMATIC BUTT WELD FERRULE.
Also illustrated are photo images of the baseline part and the respective part nomenclature tabulation drawing, the part drawing, and the actual machine code manually programmed.in our 2006 job shop on a new Doosan Lynx lathe with a Fanuc 0iT control.
The raw material is 304 and 316L stainless steel purchased with certificates for tractability.
The first operation is machined from 2” diameter bar stock cut to 3 foot lengths using a spindle liner, serrated hard jaws and a bar puller.
The second operation is machined in bored soft jaws held with low chuck pressure.

Turn-key migration from Mazatrol & G-Code family-of-parts programs to Esprit CAM SolidTurn NC programs.
Using customer's proven models & dwg/dxf drawings, workholding, cutting tools & machining parameters.
All data loaded in customer's laptop computer with the proven cnc g-code programs and the Esprit software, dongle & post processors.
