Another busy day, 4 new set ups today, Haas VF2 needed to be set up for another part of the assembly. Same jaws same stop and same zero, I need to set up 5 new tools. Set up and prove out and inspection took about 3 hours. Running 53 pieces they should be off machine tomorrow. Cycle time is 8 minutes including load time.

Katie set up the Haas Vf3 on operation 1 of J276, step jaws and an end stop and 8 tools, she did the set up in about an hour. Good work instructions make it much easier to repeat set ups.

It has 3 ODs an ID and ¾-16 external threads. Cycle time is about 15 minutes for the first operation. Set up took a couple of hours to prove out and inspect.
