Help, proper EIA code for integrex

[rsbeadle]

Hello, long time no posts, but I'm back. I am having trouble getting our integrex 200 ST (two spindle, two turret) to run with the post I am editing. I was wondering if someone could send me a working EIA program with some turning and drilling and C-axis milling. I can edit the post to do what I want but I am not sure if I have the code correct. Anything would be helpful, but some upper and lower turret paths would be nice. Thanks in advance. Just reply here and I can cut and paste or preferably e-mail me at ([email protected]).

 

Thanks,

rsbeadle

Good to see you back. Every one of these machines are different. On the PC side of the control there should be a folder that contains all of the documentation. Look for the EIA programming manual and it will have a list of all the G and M codes. I would strongly suggest you contact In-House and get a trail post from them and see how much easier life is. Also I-CAM has done some great things with machine simulation, level exchange and other things that are very cool on the Integrex machines and using Mastercam to program them.

Thanks. I have all the documentation. I have the milling side working, but I am having trouble getting the post to output the correct retract value at B90 deg. The manual says that it is the incremental value from initial point, but I cant get it to work at B90 because we are using diameter mode for turning at B90 deg. I also think I have an issue with the order of the codes when using polar milling. I haven't tried it in a while so I will need to post it at work Monday and copy it to a reply here to show you what I mean. If I have some good code to compare it to I can re-arrange the post order to get it to work. I think I may need to change the mode to radius instead of diameter. Thanks again for any help.

I have an integrex 300 st and the inhouse post. I highly recommend it. If you are looking for specific examples let me know and I will post what I can on monday.
