Daniel,

 

Contact your reseller there are Okuma posts that work or are at least close enough to start

Dan,

 

There is a generic 4 axis Okuma post from CNC that works OK. Just remember to edit out the G53 Z0 death move from pretrect before using.

 

Also in-house have a nice Okuma MPmaster post

 

If ya want to edit ya fanuc post you will need to change

Work coord - G15 H?

Tool length - G56 H?

Drill cycles planes G71 Z?

Drill cycle returns M53

The Home position move G53 Z etc

 

and add This as well

The V9 MPOKUMA works well, except for the G53 Z0 move, which should've been fixed by CNC Software by now [though it might not be]; I based my Okuma VMC post on that and made on minor edits to format the code the way I wanted. I put an IF statement before my tool changes in ptlchg to eliminate the "wrong T command" alarm if you're calling up the same tool that is in the spindle that looks like this:

 

sav_absinc = absinc

oper_num = t

"N", no_spc, *oper_num, e # (cdm)

ptoolcomment # Moved from below (cdm)

comment # Moved from below (cdm)

if stagetool >= zero, # Added for proper first-tool output, was *t, "M06" only (cdm)

[

pbld, n, *sgcode, "G17", "G40", "G53", "G80", *sgabsinc, "G94", e

pbld, n, "G30", "P1", e

"IF[VATOL EQ ", *oper_num, no_spc, "]NS", no_spc, *oper_num, e # (cdm)

pbld, n, *t, "M06", e

]

"NS", no_spc, *oper_num, e # (cdm)

if mi1 <= one, #Work coordinate system

[

absinc = one

pfbld, n, sgabsinc, *sg28ref, "Z0.", e

pfbld, n, *sg28ref, "X0.", "Y0.", e

pfbld, n, "G92", *xh, *yh, *zh, e

absinc = sav_absinc

]

else, pwcs

pcom_moveb

c_mmlt #Multiple tool subprogram call

# ptoolcomment

# comment

pcan

pindex

if mi1 > one, absinc = zero

pcan1, pbld, n, sgcode, sgabsinc, pfxout, pfyout, pfcout, e # Removed * from sgcode, sgabsinc (cdm)

pbld, n, *speed, *spindle, pgear, next_tool, strcantext, e

pbld, n, "G56", *tlngno, pfzout, scoolant, e

absinc = sav_absinc

pcom_movea

toolchng = zero

c_msng #Single tool subprogram call

 

you may need to define and format some of the variables used to get it to work, but I can't really remember what I built and what was already there.
