1. Doosan Fanuc I Series Manual

Howdy yall, my company has just purchased a used Doosan Lynx 220 CNC lathe with a Fanuc 0i-tb lathe control. It has been 10+ years since i have operated a fanuc machine and i have never used a fanuc lathe. I have spent most of my time on a HAAS mill and Lathe. I am trying to get the basics figured out on how to run this bad boy.

I can power it up, but the homing procedure is foreign to me and I aint sure i got it right. That is just step 1 of my many problems.

Does anyone have any kind of Quick startup guide that i may have to use? I appreciate any help that yall can provide. Thanks, Frank. Other than what's already been mentioned about getting a manual I don't know of any quick start up guide. Turn on the main switch around back, push the green on the upper right hand side of the control panel, wait until it boots up and the crt screen comes up, then hit the other green button, hydraulics will come on, push the jog button then move the turret down and to the left(X- Z-) about 3', then hit the zero return button, then hit the X+ jog, the X will automatically zero return, then hit Z+ jog button and the Z should do the same. Then you should be off to the races.

Basically NC machines operate on the same basic concept regardless of the make. Most all the shit you did to run that haas lathe you'll do to run this one, just a different sequence to doing same the task. Ok, that is what i thought i was supposed to do, i just couldnt find where the x and z axis were 0. I saw that the x and z axis were at their limit switches but it never showed, or more i dont know where to find that it was homed out. Ya i know that this is some what similar to the HAAS, but i am just a bit shaky with the Fanuc control. I am using CAM software, Autodesk Inventor HSM, to program it.

I can program it all day long, just need a few pointers to get headed in the right direction. Now i gotta figure out tool setting (manual and Q seter), part setting, program loading, and even how to use the bar feeder. Any insights, id be appreciative.

I read and read and re-read the manual, but it was a bit vague to me. Hopefully not with the rest of the opperations are a bit more clear than this. Thanks yall, Frank. Put up a couple good quality pictures of the control panel, Q-setter and the turret.

Does it have a USB drive by the crt screen? Or you plan on drip feeding via RS232? I'm not at work to say but do you see anything about the Q-setter on the control panel? 2018 yamaha yz125 owners manual.

If not try pulling the Q-setter down by hand? Once down just hand wheel close to the setter the put the machine in rapid mode (machine is limited to slooooow rapids with the setter down) jog over and touch the setter until the light comes on, then jog away and repeat for the other axis and all tools. This sets your geometry offsets except tool radius and tool tip. Then you have G54 thru G59 for part zero locations and that's about it?.Please jog away from the setter first to be sure it is indeed in very slow mode!. Brent. I give you props for coming here to ask for help, but at the same time this is what your shit boss hopes you will do. Seriously, they bought a used machine.so either you said you could do it and can't run it.or they bought it because they are naive and expect you to run it or anyone else because the salesman said it was 'so easy'.

I have seen this so many times and it pisses me off. Most operators don't even fathom what the machine is CAPABLE of doing.let alone the company. There is always a learning curve.I get that. Is there no one else that ran Fanuc at your shop? Wish you the best, sincerely. Put up a couple good quality pictures of the control panel, Q-setter and the turret.

BrentI will get some pictures uploaded when i get a chance. I am gonna be using RS232. Wish i could use Ethernet, but that is probably not possible. It has a button for the Q setter, but i dont think that it is the automatic q setter, but any way it will be MUCH NICER than my HAAS TL-1 lathe, but not as far as the control goes(in my own opinion, some in experience is in that statement as well).

I have a good idea of what i can do with this machine, but i am always figuring new things out every day. Just having a q setter, tool turret, bar feeder and a hydraulic computer controlled chuck will be much more advanced than my TL-1 that was over due for advancing upon for some time now. I am not to ashamed for asking questions. At worse i assume (ya i know what happens when you ASSuME) i wont get an answer back, usually happens on many other forums, still new here. I appreciate yalls help and rapid response. Thank yall very much!
