Our company has a Doosan PUMA 240 MSB with C axis , live tooling, sub spindle and Fanuc 18i-tb control
We have a Post from Inhouse I have some trouble of getting to work correctly with live milling in c axis mode.
i have trouble with M88 and M90 clamping when face milling, it is in wrong place, it activates M88 in G0 and
the machine errors out.
When manually edit the program we get it to work, but it would be nice to get the code right for the machine and
do other stuff instead of hand edit.
I have received a suggestion for solution from my reseller, but it did not put the M88 right where i wanted it and since our current post is from Inhouse and have a locked psb
file we suspect it is something inside there we need to change, i got a code snippet that inserts as a sub
mtlchg
subout$ = 1
pbld, n$, pclampbrake, e$
subout$ = 0
and some more code to use as a workaround, but it did not place the M88 and M90 where it supposed too.
M88 can not be active in G0 Mode.
So,
My reseller suggested I start over with a new post file, and suggested mplmaster instead of using the Inhouse encrypted post file.
What i wonder in all this is:
If starting again from X2018, would you recommend MPLMASTER or MPLFAN as your choice?
this is not a post request, just hoping for guidance to choose right from the start, hopefully.
