I use mpmaster.pst horizontal

before each tool change I have : G30 G91 Z0

but I need G30 G91 X0 Y0 as well.

like this:

G30 G91 Z0

G30 G91 X0 Y0

M6

How to call tool before M6? I mean like this:

T1

M6

not like this: T1 M6

mpmaster.pst

horizontal machine

Do you know g code editor for mac os?

The calculations for the rotary axis in the post are based on the setup in mastercam. Are you programming as a horizontal or a vertical machine (ie is the top toolplane B0 or is the front toolplane B0)?

 

For horizontal machines, the default setting is to program using the front toolplane as B0, the right plane as B90, back as B180 and the left as B270 (depending on the direction of rotation). Make sure you have oriented your part correctly for horizontal machining.

 

The error you are getting is because the toolplane you are using in an operation has it's Y-axis not oriented in the correct direction.

 

If you are programming as a horizontal machine, the toolplanes Y-axis must align with the world Z-axis (the Z-axis of the WCS plane). In this case you can get the correct toolplane by rotating the front toolplane about it's Y-axis.

 

If you are programming as a vertical, then the Y-axis needs to always align with the world Y-axis (the Y-axis of the WCS plane). To get the correct toolplane orientation, you can create your planes by rotating the top toolplane about it's Y-axis.

 

Bottom line, make sure the Y-axis is oriented in the same direction for all tool planes you are using.

Im using free post and machine definition :Mpmaster - Master G-Code Post - Version X5

I attached example.

21085.MCX-5

Im trying to use postprocessor for horizontal machine center with mastercam x5. When im posting my operations i have this error:

Error- select machine achievable toolplane with y-axis along machine y - set and repost

Whats wrong?

When do you want this to happen? There's a few possibilities...

I need this before rotate to any angles and after tool change.

for example:

M6(DRILL 10)

G0 G90 B90.

G0 G90 G54 X0 Y0 S900 M3

G43 Z50. H1

G81 G99 Z-10. R5.F100

G80

G30 G91 Z0

G0 G90 B180.

G0 G90 G54 X0 Y0 S900 M3

G43 Z50. H1

G81 G99 Z-10. R5.F100

G80

G30 G91 Z0

G30 G91 X0 Y0

Horizontal machining center.

How to make like this:

G30 G91 Z0

G0 G90 B0

G0 G90 G54 X0 Y0 S2000 M3

Mastercam always doing like this:G0 G90 G54 X0 Y0 B0 S2000 M3

I need retract pallet to referents point (Z) and rotate pallet.

I`m looking for a post processor forMoriSeiki NH5000. Mastercam X3 or X5. Thanks.
