4 axis wire on mits problem

[Millertime]

ok I wrote a program using 4th axis on x5 using direct 4th axis setting.My geometry is a 1.00 hole on 1 deg with a 1/4 key protruding out about a 1/4 inch that has no draft.I chained the top

contour and bottom countour plugged in the numbers program looks good.But alarms out the machine (p1083 uv cir.err mode of setting block not straight line move.The program will run if i use the 4axis setting and not direct 4 axis setting.I just dont like all the line moves and facet look to the part.

 

Any Ideas?

Try manually breaking the circle at 180 degrees and try it again. I'm assuming you have sync turned on.

yes i do have sync turned on and the circle is broken in 2 places at 180 and 90 my start point is at 90 were I have a wire start hole.

Most older machines and many new machines can not use direct 4th axis...

I'm a little confused on your issue but..my Mits Machines do not run arc's in 4 axis
