cutter depth

[Kevin O]

The shop foreman asked if I could add the max. cutting depth for tool paths. I couldn't find a way to include these in the setup sheets, so

other then manually checking the depths and writing them down I can't any alternatives.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

 

Thanks in advance

if your using MPmaster.pst , Yes it will output in the program for you

 

 

output_z : yes #Output Z Min and Z Max values (yes or no)

[Hardmill]

Mpmaster outputs prog and tool min. and max depths.

 

(PROG MIN DEPTH = Z2.5)

(PROG MAX DEPTH = Z-.344)

G00 G17 G20 G40 G80 G90

(T1 = MIN DEPTH = Z1.)

(T1 = MAX DEPTH = Z-.344)

G00 G90 X1.84648 Y.52801

( 3MM ENDMILL .2 RAD)

G05 P10000

Z-.339

G01 Z-.344 F40.

Not unless it's based on the MPMaster Post.

I'm not at all experienced with posts. how would I be able to tell if the hurco post is based on the mpmaster post?
