 ===== About =====
-The Haas Super Mini Mill is a CNC milling machine. Parts can be modeled in SOLIDWORKS and then toolpaths are programmed through an HSM add-in that generates G-code for the machine to read. The Haas can read  G-code and .EGC files.

The Haas can read  G-code and .EGC files. ** Due to its complexity, we do not offer regular training for this tool.** If you just need it for a few parts, please use our [[https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeQZ5JnKzOf-UZA0yWZ1XwLGQjmtgyEOFxxHWpZWUUIa8OxcA/viewform|Job Submission Google Form]] and we will machine them for you. If you believe you have a strong need to use this tool, please contact the lab manager.

-===== Operating Procedures =====
-  - Program tool paths using a SOLIDWORKS add-in
-  - Put tools in tool holders
-  - Set tool offsets using tool probe
-  - Set fixture offset(s) with touch probe (usually G54)
-  - Load program
-  - Check that tool numbers in program match tools in machine
-  - Check that appropriate fixture offset is loaded
-  - Load stock in the machine
-  - Proof the part (test the program with air cuts). One easy way to do this is to add a height to the G54 Z value sufficient to make sure that all cuts will be above the top of the part surface.
-  - Use rapid and feed override at the beginning of the program to make sure that the initial Z axis moves are safe. You can also use single block mode
-  - Keep your hand close to the emergency stop in case the program doesn’t do what you expect.
-  - Reset G54 to the correct value.
-  - Run the program for the first time - follow the precautions in step 10 to make sure that nothing unexpected happens. You can adjust the feed rate override as needed.
