Tap Cycle G32 question

[MechLink]

Hi I have Mastercam 2018 at work and I was trying to program a tap cycle on a lathe
but the only option for it on the list is G32 and I am used to working with G84.
Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between G32 and G84?

The lathe is a Daewoo Lynx 210C
Controller is Fanuc Oi-T
My tap is on mounted with a spring loaded tapping head.

I am using the Default post for lathes on Mastercam
and I have tried several other posts but I haven't seen the option of the Tap G84 in the Cycle list.

Thanks.

What does it post out as? That is technically just a label in the drop down. You can change it to what ever you want in the control def text.

In the pdrill post blocks you can see what it will actually post and change the value. It may say sg32 or "G32" . You may need to alter more of the cycle depending what the control wants.

when it post the program its does so as G32

I guess I could just manual edit after it post it but I was going to see if there is some way to have it post correctly the first time.

Open the post and search5 for *ptap*

I couldn't find *ptap* when i search the post.
I did find *ltap* but I didn't see where to change it for G84.

I will just have to wait for my reseller to get back to me on the post.
I was just going to check here just in case it was something simple I was overlooking.

 

Thanks for the help

This is the tap G-code I came up with after doing some research.

The cycle works but the RPM goes to around 680 instead of staying at 85 and I am not sure why.

Can anyone tell me if there is an issue with the code?

The machine is a
Daewoo Lynx 210C Lathe
