Komo-FANUC post with G52

[james_r]

Hello,

 

I am using MasterCAM ver. 9 to program a VR408 KOMO Router with the Fanuc OMC controller. Unfortunately, the post processor I have does not use G52 for multiple part programs. I would like to know if a customized post exist for this controller and router for MasterCAM, and where I might find it. Thank you for any help may be able to provide.

South Bay of what?

 

Might be a knucklehead question, but I'm sure there are many "South Bay" areas (we have one). If the guys out here know where you are they may be able to suggest who to talk to in your area, as I'm sure "contact your reseller" can't be far behind...

Sorry,

I'm in the San Francisco Bay Area. I am talking to my dealer, he is very helpful and is

looking into the question as well. I was just hoping if anyone already figured it out, it could

save us both time and money.

Where did you get the post you are currently using? Contact your Komo reseller, Komo has a post written by CNC Software. Whether or not is uses the G52 I am not sure.

 

good luck

james_r,

 

I have a post I customized for out two Komo routers w/ Fanuc controllers. I use a G54 offset, but at one time I was set up to switch from between the two spindles and/or the twin beds. If I remember how to interperate the model number correctly, you have a single table. How many spindles?

 

I would be glad to share the post with you if you want..

ps: Are you located in the South Bay - Daly City to Redwood City for the Michigan crowd? My family and I were playing 'tourist' in the The City last Sunday.

kathy,

Thanks for your reply. We have a single table

with a single spindle. If you wouldn't mind, I would really like to try your post. Have you ever used G52? We do a lot of plastic, so it's kind of nice for jumping around your program when part 65/100 decides to free itself from the

vacuum.

I'm in the South Bay-Santa Clara. The city is fun I was just up there this past weekend, it was freezing. It must have been a nice break from the heat over there.

Also: Thanks Roger, I emailed Komo, they didn't respond. I think I'll give them a call.

james,

 

e-mail me direct and I'll send you the files.. We don't use the G52, but it shouldn't be hard to incorporate. You might like other things in the post that we do!
