Integrex Sub Spindle

[Peccator]

I have an application where I want to use the sub spindle on my Integrex 400-III S as a tailstock to hold my part to a mandrel on the main spindle. I am going to turn a center in the sub chuck and have a center drilled cap on the front of my part and I want to bring the sub spindle into position to put pressure for a five axis milling operation. The code I have from Mazak is this...

code:

---

G110 Z2

M508 (press mode on)

G98

G31

Z??? F5.

G111

M509 (press mode off)

M511 (spindle sync active)

M03

I saw some helpful code from here Transfer Code for Mazak Integrex

 

Could anyone elaborate on this?

 

Thanks,

Shane

Neanders Valley,

 

I might be able to help. What sort of elaboration are you looking for? An interpretation of the code snippit from above?

Brett,

The snippit from above is from Mazak. We can define what it all means. It just looks like there is some code missing . Just some clarity from anyone who has maybe been there done that is what I am looking for. We have tried to use Mazatrol to bring up the sub spindle but can't seem to make it work.

This is what I use for picking off a part, it can be used to do what you are asking also.
