Y_max$ value

[BehindYou]

Greetings  everyone.

Related with y_max$ and y_min$  (lathe)

Why the C-Axis value is stored in the above mentioned variables?

Example output

(=========================================================)
(  | Max_Z position = +10.000 mm | )
(  | Min_Z position = -26.000 mm | )
(  | Min_Y position = -109.771 mm | )
(  | Max_Y position = +109.771 mm | )
 
(=======================================================)
(  | Rapid Time = 4 sec | )
(  | Feed Time = 41 sec | )
(=======================================================)
(  | Total Time = 45 sec | )
(=======================================================)

I have the feeling this is relative to what you are trying to accomplish....

It is directly from the MPLFAN post

Quote

#Y axis output and machining over part center:
# Output Y axis motion by setting 'Rotary axis/Y axis' in the NC
# parameter page.  This requires a valid Axis Combination in your machine defintion.
# y_axis_mch is set from the axis combination.
# Set 'Rotary axis/Y axis' in a machine with no Y axis (y_axis_mch = 0)
# to force linear/circular position moves in the XZ plane (g18).
# This allows machining over the part center.
#Caution: The machining must stay in the XZ plane at a Y fixed value
# when y_axis_mch = zero because no C (other than the Tplane) or
# Y positions are output!!!  This occurs when selecting C_axis/Cross
# Contour without 'y_axis_mch'.  Use Mill toolpaths for cross profiling.

Greetings @JParis

I wish I had this info in my post
Thank you so much for pointing  this out

After few changes not it works flawlessly

      if rotary_type$ = 0 | rotary_type$ = 3,
        [
        b1_ymax  = y_max$
        b1_ymin  = y_min$
        ] 
Now only when I have y selected or no axis selected (while using mill operations)  buffer will fill min/max variables

Once again thank you @JParis

Kind regards
