mmouse like function with the Mouse wheel when hovering over color,level,view,attributes,wcs etc. Also to be able to hold ctrl and scroll thru the levels and have it turn on only the geometry on that level.
-
Its Modal until M30 or G64 is called. G0 wont cancel G61.1.

quote: #100=100+1. IF[#100 EQ #101]GOTO600 GOTO N010 N600 M30 Should be GOTO10 (not GOTO N010) You may not have Macro B available. It is an option.

Not trying to be a smarta#@ but, your sure block skip is on?
-
I am not sure whats going on with that. I never seen that before. Maybe its the look ahead? Try and put some empty lines in between?

2 more ideas. Try G65P0002L10 or; O0002(CAP X 6) (7/8 BAR)(3.00) G10P0Z16.750 #100=0(RESET COUNTER) WHILE[#1LE6]DO1 M98 P0001 G10P0W.450 #1=[#1+1] END1 N0707(BAR PULLER) G00 G40 G99 M05 M09 T0700 X3. Z-.625 T0707 G01 G98 X0. F300. M16 G04 U.5 W2.750 F100. M15 G04 U.5 X3. F300. G00 G99 X8.0 Z6. T0700 /M30 M99%

Try M98P2L10 instead?

UNJ have a controlled root radius.

c- axis lathe post modification help
tryon replied to Mike Gates from Barefoot CNC's topic in Industrial Forum
Was this a simple fix? I could use this fix also. -
#3006 works like an M00 but the machine will stop and the display will change to the operator message screen with your comment. It doesnt turn off the spindle or the coolant like an M00 though. At least on our Hardinges it wont.

did it involve a solid? i have noticed that i am not able to undo many things involving a solid X MR2

quote: Create, arc, tangent 2 enities (full circle), just like the options that you have with creating an arc tangent to 3 enities. create circle edge point, tangent button(4th from left), click 2 entities.

there is a setting in the configuration, cad setting, uncheck update c plane t-plane and reset tplane.
-
I think this wouldd be a good option for the control definition.

i Updated a version 9 post and now when i post a program i get about 15 seconds of a window telling me about all these variables being reinitialized before it finishes posting. ex. reinitializing "arctype$ from 1 to 0" type of things. Any ideas how i screwed this one up? All the other posts that i updated do not do this. thanks

I think G91 is silly on a mill and wish U,V, and W could be used instead. oh well not really a big deal anymore with cam though. jmho

What i have done for our sub-spindle Lathe is make Macro subs for operations that require syncing. So for example a cutoff w/transfer to the subspindle(cutoff/transfer, subspindle pull out and machine). If i am doing subspindle work then after my last main spindle tool i turn a Misc integer on and i get a G65 macro call with all the correct settings figured out by the post. Then make a new WCS on the back of the part and program the sub-spindle. This is for a single turret sub-spindle Hardinge Quest.

if there is not alot of holes you might be able to put L0 or K0 on the positions you already drilled. It will move to the holes but not drill them if L0 or K0 is on the line,.

THe only thing about procomm that i like is that it stays open and you can see it recieving the dprnt's in real time as they come. We dont have Dnc-max just the oem mastercam version of cimco that we use for normal dnc and program transfer, but you have to close out the window to see what has came over from the dprnts. So its not exactly real time.
-
i have been searching for a better solution for this also. We are using Procomm plus because it stays open, and displays the Dprnt's as they get output. problem is is that its scrolled across the screen code: l i k e that. We have a 3 machine mazak fms set up and sometimes the machines will sit if the operators dont notice that a machine isnt running because a tool life or something has come up on the far machines. We put a laptop up near the load station so they can see it.

"It makes the code messy and it should be all neat and one continuous move." I am in a shop where we all program our own jobs, and sometimes i will get a job set up and programmed and then have to hand it off. We have 9 guys here capable of programming and only 2 of us use mastercam. Well some of the guys complain that "mastercam adds all these extra moves". So i guess i dont like the extra lines because it will cause grown men to whine and i have to hear about it.
-
I dont like that either. It happens with extend countour in mill and you lead in and lead out in lathe also.
-
I believe if you call your subs with G65 you can go deeper than 4. You dont need to pass arguments with G65 it just allows you to. I dont think i have ever went past 4 myself.
-
I wonder if you could model it into your holder geometry??

There was a post a couple of weeks previous that mentioned the same problem. I didnt even know about Multi-line before reading about it. I tried it out in 9 and its a big timesaver for drawing lathe parts. I think X should work the same way.
