Generic Haas SL 4X MT_Lathe g98 output for face drilling


Recommended Posts

Good morning All.

 

I need to make an edit to my Generic Haas SL 4X MT_Lathe post. For face drilling using live tooling I need to output a G98 into the code. Can someone point me in the direction of where I might add this to the post?

 

Thanks.

 

Matt.

Lathe posts that are capable of milling have 2 sections in the drilling section one section controls the lathe drilling cycles and the other section controls the milling section. How can you tell them a part you might ask pretty easy the lathe section does not repeat because you only drill one hole at a time with a tool in lathe where as with milling toolpaths you can drill more than one hole. The 1st section is the call area and the 2nd is the repeat for just basic code. Look there and you should see what you need. Might even be a switch in the post so might want to call you dealer In-House if they are and I know of the experts there can point you in the right direction.
