5 AXIS MOTIONMASTER WITH FAGOR CONTROLL

[jerms]

I WAS LOOKING FOR SOME HELP SETTING UP THE POST/ MACHINE CONTROL DEF. FOR "X" I AM TRYING TO PROGRAM A 5 AXIS. BUT THE C AXIS JUST SEEMS TO GO IN CONTINUOS FIGURE 8 LOOPS. I HAVE THE CORRECT TO PIVOT LENGTH A AXIS WORK FINE WHEN CREATING SWARF CUTS. ANY INFO WOULD BE GREAT

 

 

THANKS

Motion Masters can be set up with one of two possible C axis orientations in its parameters.

One is 90 deg from the other. This could cause eradict behavoir of C.

 

What post/mach def are you using? There are several motion master posts available. If you need help tweaking your at the right place, if you need a post check with your dealer.

IT WAS UPDATED FROM V9.1, CALLED MMASTER.MMD

THERE ARE ALSO 2 MORE CALLED MMASTER-LEFT AND RIGHT .

I AM NEW HERE AND THE PREVIOUS GUY WAS "LET GO" BECAUSE HE COULD'NT GET THE MACHINE TO RUN. SO I AM IN A BIND.....

I KEEP GETTING "Warning - This cut may need a C axis UNWIND"

I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THE TRAVEL LIMITS SET UP IN THE C.D. PAGE ARE INCORRECT

 

THANKS AGAIN FOR ANY HELP

Jerms,

 

Have you tried contacting your reseller for assistance?

If the post was created for V9, I would not expect it uses any of the rotary setting from the machine or control def.
