Integrex tapping on subspindle face

Recommended Posts

Hi,

it's not Mastercam related but i know there are Integrex gurus here who can help.

I'm trying to tap on subspindle face on an Integrex 200 MkIV(Matrix T32 mode) using G84.2 gcode. It works well on main spindle but on sub the tap feeds spinning in reverse and retracts spinning forward. 

With trials i found adding a M204 on G84.2 line seems to work for first hole but it won't for next holes. 

Anyone can post a working code of rigid tapping on sub face?

This is for our i-300ST:

G84   RIGHT HAND TAPPING [G98 G99] G84 [X,Y] R Z [P] F [J D H K]
      P(DWELL)
      J(1 = M04 AFTER DWELL,2 = M04 BEFORE DWELL,4 = M03 AFTER DWELL AT R-POINT)
      D(TAP LIFTING DISTANCE ABOVE R-POINT)
      H(0 OR OMMITTED = NON SYNCED, >0 = SYNCED)
      K(DISTANCE FROM R-POINT TO STARTING POINT)

G84.2 SYNCED TAPPING [G98 G99] G84.2 [X,Y] R Z F.03125 FOR TAPPING IN MAIN ALSO
      90° IN MAIN AND SUB

G84.3 SYNCED TAPPING [G98 G99] G84.3 [X,Y] R Z F.03125 FOR FACE TAPPING IN SUB

Thanks Tim.

It looks like I need this G84.3 to work. I found it on EIA manual but i tried and it doesn't work on my machine (illegal Gcode alarm).

Perhaps it's an option which needs some sort of activation. I guess i will need to investigate with Mazak.
