5 axis issue Haas


Recommended Posts

Ok so now I feel dumb.  I am trying to program a Haas DT30 with a TRT100 5 axis rotary.  I have a simple facing toolpath which doesn't require any rotation.  Planes are set correct.  When I post code it is creating a 5 axis tool path.  Now I can select the generic fanuc post and it posts out fine.  I have narrowed it down to the post and I can not for the life of me figure out why it is doing this.  Anyone have this issue?  All other tool paths seem fine except for the facing.

improper plane usage in a 5 axis machine....is this a proven 5 axis post for your machine or a generic that is not proven?

You say you don't need 5 axis output but is your plane usage proper for outpuuting without motion....

A file and a description of your A0 B0 orientation would be helpful

I would be doing some very basic contours  on different planes so that correct orientations can be proven.....if you're trying to go to machine with a completely stock post I hope you're ready for what's to come....

I never put a 5 axis post onto work until I my angle are correct & proper.....

OK so I figured something else out now.  If I post out the code as a full program it goes crazy with rotation moves.  If I only post out one operation it is fine.....
