Adjust feed on arc move

Recommended Posts

Hi,

there is an option in Toolpath manager - properties - tool setting - "adjust feed on arc"

When i wrote there any number, my post generate feed on arc move to value that i filled in that column to all tools and operations.

But different tools have different feed. I think, that value represent percentage reduce/increase of tool feed (feed on arc=value*tool feed) Am I wrong or is it bad post? Thanks

I need this done also, I placed a 27 for my carbide; but for my 1/2 HSS it should be around 5 and the post placed a 27 for my HSS....a bit too fast. I found this post code in another thread maybe this can help.

 

code:

 # mr5$ "Arc Feedrate Factor" <-multiplies feed by this value

# mr6$ "Arc Threshold" <-if arc rad falls below this valuepcirout1

#Output to NC of circular interpolation

 

pcan1, pbld, n$, `sgfeed, sgplane, sgcode, sgabsinc, pccdia,pxout, pyout, pzout, pcout, parc,

[

if arcrad$,

[if arcrad$ <mr6$ & arcrad$ >-mr6$ & mr5$<>0,feed = feed*mr5$]

],

if feed <0.01,feed = 0.01

feed, strcantext, scoolant, e$
