4th axis work offset rotation

[mayday]

Fanuc 15m b control. any one know if it is possible with a code to enable the control

to calculate a new xyz point when rotating the 4th axis. the manual decribes this function

but when i try it it seams to get confused. sort of works like the g68 program rotate.

I’m not real familiar with the 15m, but I wrote a custom macro B program for a Fanuc 18I horizontal machine that would calculate a new X, Y, Z by entering the original X, Y, Z and R value of the angle that you are rotating to. This only works with 90-degree rotations. Note: That in mastercam you can set your post to output a G10 X, Y, Z line at tool change and null tool change, that will calculate a new XYZ point when rotating by using the tool/plane origin.
