I don't think that button works yet. It's on our 2 newer machines. It doesn't do anything.
I'm curious if you can write to the result list if it's a g10 line or m code
We use the inspection plus from pqi on our matsuuras. It offers a large amount of cycles you can use are easy to set the drill cycles for.
Out yasdas came with the probe system factory installed. The new one has the I gauge software which will check straightness and roundness.
My old place had a kitamura with a non random changer. There was always an empty spot with no pot. It would unhook and rotate the magazine while in the pot waiting position to the ejecting tools position.
I'm the maintenance menu you can unlatch the pot and it will drop down into the machine. I then reinstalled it backwards and sheared the arm off the pot. Luckily I just had to buy a pot and stick it back in.
It was a nice pallet changer. If something went wrong you could handle feed it back or estop it and push it untill the apc home position light lit up.
Gon is the yasnac lookahead.
Hon is for the Siemens and gets converted to g131 for fanuc
Parameter 1604 bit 0 will turn on aicc automatically on fanuc.
I hardly ever use it but I think I had to make a surface below the lower rail as a floor surface.
That's why I always use old school swarf. It's less twitchy
We bought a Makino ps95. It didn't even have aicc. Fanuc came down after we bought it afterwards and we bought the option. The professional p control seems nice but it's basically an oi control. Terrible blends even with large lead in radii and overlap.
Z axis creeps up as it warms. Machining blades you're dropping z while it's creeping up. Every time you drop zee an extra .0001 it bites you.
It ruined Makino for our company and we'll probably never buy another one.
So it started doing it again after I changed the tool so I looked in the control def and changed the minimum nc step and math function tolerance to .00001 and it seems to have fixed it.
I have a square with radii in the 4 corners. Tool path tolerance it .00001.
On all 4 sides the posted code is moving.00005 along each length. The geometry is straight I even drew new geometry if I annalize with six place decimals it's a straight line..
The post is set for 6 place decimal. Will adjusting the system tolerance help this?
They mail us the camplete usb in a separate package. We've gotten them before the machines
If that's really the case call them and ask them for a 30-day license to get you going
