Doosan Lynx 2100 LSY
Category : New Stuff
This week had loads of fun on Doosan Lynx 2100 LSY. Seems to be a very well thought out machine oh and they don’t skimp on the extras.
Not the simplest of machines to operate but once you get over it’s little quirks let’s face it we all have them.
I mean I keep scratching my bollocks but as long as its not in public or in front of the wife I usually get away with it.
This machine has one turret and two spindles both spindles have a rotary C axis. The Doosan Lynx 2100 LSY has a Y axis the clues in the title.
Most impressive of all is the 24 station turret which means you can be more tooled up than Arnold Schwarzenegger on his birthday.
There are half stations so you can get special holders that cover two stations.
The other option is to space the tools out like a twelve station turret.
I mean these tools are like elephants in a fuckin lift meaning you don’t have much clearance.
You need to look out for the tool below if you do decide to cram more tools in. If you know what it’s like to run out of tool stations then you won’t mind compromising a bit.
Congratulations Mr and Mrs Doosan on the Doosan Lynx 2100 LSY, it might be a compromise but it works well.
Fanuc Speed Amnesia
Why can’t a Fanuc control remember the speed.
Age old problem, you try to start the spindle in manual and it sits there fuckin laughing at you. So you have to go into MDI and start the spindle or just give it a speed before you can manually start any of the two spindles.
Speed amnesia so bloody annoying, come on girls give us a break. Logically if you have to start the spindle in MDI is there really any point of a manual spindle on off button. Mmmmm.
Icons I hate Icons
I can never remember what all the buttons are on these machines. What chance has someone who’s only experience of working a machine was in Costas
Anyway I have a labelling machine so I stuck em everywhere. Does it really cost that much money to have different button on a machine for an English speaking country than say a French one?
I could sell Doosan my labelling machine, maybe that’s the solution.
