  1. in that case this will get you what you want

     

    T20 M6 (select tool probe)

    G54 x-3.2 Y0

    G43 H20 Z3.5

    G65 P9832

    G65 P9810 Z.5  F10.      (PROTECTED MOVE ABOVE MATERIAL)

    G65 P9812 X5.8 R.2 Z-.5 S1 (PROBE AND SET X  DATUM IN CENTER OF YOUR MATERIAL)

    G65 P9810 Z3.5

    G65 P9833

     

    THIS CYCLE PROBES BOTH SIDES IN X AND SETS THE DATUM IN THE CENTER OF THE MATERIAL

  2. edit

    change the g40 line from x1. y.5 to x1. y1.

    i don't think the position you are leaving the tool in before the g40 line

    allows for any movement to cancel the cutter comp

    you would normally comp on at 90 degrees to the first x feed move

    and comp off 90 degrees to the last x feed move as it stands any value other than zero in the t1 diameter

    offset would force a -90 degree move when you try to comp off

  3. hi

    my compny are having problems finding a full 5 axis post for this machine the one we have works fine on 3 & 4 axis work but not 5 axis.

    the boss is running out of patience(been trying for 16months) & is thinking about dumping mastercam for delcam powermill as they do have a working post for mazak vtc800 30sr machines .i would prefer to stick with mastercam i anyone using mastercam to successfully progam these machinesfor 5 axis work
