alright another one to work out... tap feedrate by IPR


Recommended Posts

So I have gotten along pretty good with the MAZAK post converted from the HAAS post. 

 

Another problem ( hopefully last ) the MAZAK reads tapping feedrate in IPR and the HAAS in IPM. changing either the feedrate or RPM of the tap changes the other accordingly. How do I unlock this feedrate thing? 

I have in the past made a *feed and *feeds in the post because we had 2 FADAL machines, one that took IPM and the other IPR. so I just didi a calculation in the post to toggle, that way in the operations box, both programmed the same. I assume I don't have to go through all that trouble for this. 

 

Again, greatly appreciate your help

Dan

I prefer to set mine up like so...

ptap$            #Canned Tap Cycle
      pdrlcommonb
       pitch = 1 / n_tap_thds$    #added 7/2/07  ADDED Peck Tapping option -09/05/2018,
          result = newfs(17, feed)  # Set for tapping Feedrate format
      pcan1, pbld, n$, *sgdrlref, *sgdrill, pxout, pyout, pfzout, pcout, [if peck1$ > 0, *peck1$],
        prdrlout, *pitch, !feed, strcantext, e$  # changed  from *feed  to *pitch, !feed  7/2/07
      pcom_movea
