We have a 1052VII millac milling machine with a tsudakoma trunnion using C as rotary and A as, what i call the cradle. The "A" axis rotates about the "Y" axis, so it is sitting in our machine 90 degrees from normal. The post swamps the axis. We have been trying our best to run a full 5 axis program on our machine since day one, which was over a year ago. We bought a simulator to be sure our programs don't crash unexpectedly. we found out about 2 months ago the software that runs the trunnion is out of date. which like it is, makes the trunnion run slower. This was causing a problem using inverse time. We made the call to Okuma and they made a request to Okuma Japan for updated software, two months later and we now have updated our trunnion software. The part i was trying to program, before the trunnion problem, I resumed trying to program after the update. when we make a program and run the simulator, everything looks great. When i post the program and take it to the machine in starts 180 degrees different than the simulator shows. the way the program is now in the machine it will crash into the part, it's doing moves it doesn't show on the simulator. We have tested program after program from our reseller. The programs they send us test fine, so I am thinking i am missing a setting or something so it will stop the crazy motion it's doing. I would appreciate any help. I can send a file if i need to. it will have to be through dropbox. My email is [email protected] thanks for any help. JEff
