Tutorial on how to create machine model?

Hi,
I want to learn to create machine model. What I have in mind is Mazak H800. It is a 4 axis horizontal mazak machine. May be because it is an old machine I can't find it in show room. Would someone help me out?

Thanks

Open in the Library folder:

4_axis_mill_b_table_template_inch.vcproject

It is a template preset for this type of machine.

Change the control file:

Configuration > Control > Open...
Select: maz640m.ctl

Change the machine:
Configuration > Machine > Open...
Select: mazh500.mch   (Mazak H500)

Save the project file.

This should be a good start. The machine is a smaller version of yours. You can modify the initial position of the axes and the size of the table to match yours.

In the Help, you can also refer to the sessions 102 and 104
