Tombstone rotation problem

[connormac]

I have this part set where it is in the tombstone from the centerline of the tombstone. touched the tool off and offset is correct to centerline. I have 2 slots at a angle +33.53° and -33.53°. I rotated the tombstone 33.53 both directions. Just to check I rotated around X 90 degrees and the bottom of the slots I am milling are flat so know the rotation is correct. But for some reason it does not machine correctly. I checked the numbers they seem to be correct.

It verifies correctly. Its Friday!! If you what to see the part it is in X3-files on ftp site. "Kitamura rotation problem". Thanks for all the help.

i turned off rotary axis button on the first op and created a new top view for center of rotation and reselected all the planes(for index) and it looks good here is some of the code i posted with my kitamura HX500i post if you want i can send you the file back or code i have

when i created the new top view i rotated it 90 deg about x axis so z axis is up so MC knows what to rotate about

hope this helps you out

Thanks Tony. Your numbers look about the same as mine. I think when a previous op was done they got the angle holes off so no matter what, the pocket cannot be in the right place. thanks for looking.I will let you know what I find out. Looks like I might get to work this weekend on rework. I hate rework!

[Tony35]

your welcome

when i tried to post the ops it gave me a error select machine with y axis blah blah thats why i created a new top to see the code and it looked ok but if the angle was off from the previous op well then it wont line up

good luck

I tried to use the rotary axis button because my post was not putting in B0. It put in B0 after that but reversed angles. I need my post to put in rotation every time. got to work on that

connormac

in your post search for pheader and look for this line

(MPMASTER POST)

sav_rot_on_x = 1 #SET TO 1 FORCE B OUTPUT WITH NO INDEX

 

change it to 1 and it should force B output

 

give that a try

[Tony35]

connormac

did that work for you

[Jayson Kramer]

ok so you are programming from top and not from a Horz plane relative to front. is you post set for Vertical and not Horz?

[connormac]

Tony in that didn't work.

sav_rot_on_x = 1 #SET TO 1 FORCE B OUTPUT WITH NO INDEX

 

is not in my post.

Jay, yes we go from top and rotate around y axis. I'll have to check about what the post is set for. Our resaler sent it to us.

 

I do know if you go at least 90° then back to zero it will put in the B0. but anything less than 90° you have to put in B0. For now I just set up a misc int to have it put in B0 when I need it. I'm a danger to myself.

[Tony35]

i didnt know you were set as top (front)

i would get your reseller to get that posts tweaked in for ya

 

good luck
