G112 for lathe


Recommended Posts

Good morning, I have a Eurotech dual spindle 740 slly. I was doing some live milling on the sub with g112. Just cutting some flats at 0 and 180 deg.

I drew the tool path with a c-axis contour and it looked good but, after I posted it out it didn't work. It seems to use way to many c moves and the c and x are out of position.

I ended up doing long hand at the machine. Just about 3lines of code per pass-lead in,cu,t lead out-compared to 30 lines when I post. What I'm asking is, am I missing something in the toolpath or some option in the machine defintion ? I am using slant bed lathe with c& y axis.
