mpmaster post for fadal

[Elmer Fudd]

I'm doing a new post (X5) for a fadal format 2 and I am trying to get the rigid tap cycle to post a .2 on the spindle speed.

My version 9 post has it but I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks for any help that I get.

[Bryan Johnson]

below is an example.

 

p_rigid1 # prepare for rigid tap

if fadal_format = 1, tap_mode = 1 #Force Rigid tap

if opcode$ = 3 & nextdc$ = 3,

[

if (tap_prompt = 0) & (tap_flag = 0), q1

tap_flag = 1

if (tap_mode = 1) & (fadal_format = 2), #prepare for rigid tap format 2 only

[

if tap_dir = 1, "G74.2", e$

else, n$, "G84.2", e$

]

]

 

add the call to p_rigid1 at "psof$" and "ptlchg$" as shown below

......

n$, *sgcode, *sgabsinc, pwcs, pfxout, pfyout, pfcout, p_spindle, e$

p_rigid1

n$, "G43", p_tlngno, pfzout, p_next_tool, scoolant, e$

........

 

 

ptap$ #Canned Tap Cycle - G84/G74

pdrlcommonb

tap_pitch = (1 / n_tap_thds$)

if tap_mode = 1, # Rigid Tap

[

if fadal_format = 1,

[

n$, *tap_speed1, "G80", e$

n$, p_tapg, !drlgsel, *sgdrlref, pfxout, pfyout, pfzout, pcout, prdrlout, *tap_speed1, *tap_pitch, !feed, e$

]

else, n$, p_tapg, !drlgsel, *sgdrlref, pfxout, pfyout, pfzout, pcout, prdrlout, p_tap_speed, *feed, e$

]

else, pbld, n$, *sgdrill, *sgdrlref, pfxout, pfyout, pfzout, pcout, prdrlout, *feed, e$

pcom_movea

 

p_tapg

if tap_dir = 1, "G74.1"

else, "G84.1"

Thanks Bryan but I don't see anything with a "s + .2" like my old post has. I have my reseller working on it. Hopefully he can help me out.
