Index of horisontal...

[Guffie]

Hi Guys!

 

I have been fighting for some time with a trouble.. We got a Horisontal machine, which I started to make pgr. for, and now run into the problem with different angles of machining..

 

But no matter where I look in Mastercam, I can't find anywhere to describe which angle the cube is suppose to turn to...

 

I have made it with WCS and Unique zero point etc, but can't find this B-axis describtion..

 

Am I blind or it must be done manually when the pgr. is posted?...

 

Thanks for any help..

Different ways you can do this, but would normally create your Tool plane in the desired angle and then you post will give you the B-axis output, Front plane being zero degrees, Right plane 90 degrees, Back plane 180 and Left 270. So your post need to support 4-axis, like Mpmaster from Inhouse

Thanks for answer..

 

I just assummed that the post was made for this, because it's created for this machine..

I'll check with the creator of the post...

 

Btw, er du dansker?

Your post might already be all set, just wanted to throw it out there. What machine did you get?

Yep about as much as you can be, beside the great-grandmother part that immigrated from Poland

are you using named view after creating the WCS view this will out put the proper B rotation if the Post is setup for output of B and Not A. the MPmaster handles this well as i have been using for programming Horz Mazaks Matuuras and Toydodas latley

do you have a file you can share we can review how you are doing it?
