select rotary directions

[babolino]

hello all,

 

does anybody know how to select the desired direction on a table/table machine? The machine would overtravel the X axis (X100. Y0. Z0. C180.B-2)

 

If I could get this (X-100. Y0. Z0. C180. B2)it wouldn´t overtravel the X+ direction.

 

I played around with the Axis limit´s in fanuc gen 5x post, an it post good, but is there an easier way to change the directions of the rotary axis on the fly?

Sounds like you want to be looking in your machine definition and plane assignments, not your post

maybe, I really have no Idea how to do this. You know there are two solutions: x-100 c180 and B-2.

 

If I could make it to get x+100 C0 and B+2, that would be great.

 

both solutions would work but as I said before the first one overtravels the X+ direction on the machine.

 

any (good) ideas?

check the 'Misc values' in your operations. Integer 10 allows for biasing the secondary axis to the positive or negative.

and again S4A solves the prob.

 

thanks a lot!!!

 

that was exactly what I was looking for.
