16i fanuc High Speed Machining

[dprovost71]

We are doing some surface milling with our Twin Spindle vertical mill with a 16i fanuc control. We program a F20. and it slows to an F.3 in some areas...it never reaches the F20. We've tried a few G codes to enable in the book with no luck. I've gotten a few things from technical assistance from our seller with no success and it looks like I'll have to have a service call. Its been my experience its usually just changing a bit from 0 to a 1 in the parameters or visa versa. Any help would be appreciated.

This issues has been addressed pretty extensively.

 

If you're doing DNC ovr RS-232... that may be all you'll get. Just depends on the moves.

I think he is asking what the parameter is to turn on HSM.

We have tried that G code and thats an option I was told from the tech. We scheduled a service call.

I wish I had that book with all the parameters listed and what they do.

thanks for you help

If you don't have the option, theres not much you can do besides order the option. It's a little more involved than

just changing a bit from 0 to a 1 in the parameters or visa versa

. It hasn't been that easy for the better part of a decade,

Not going to find that here.
