My shop runs all Mazaks and we have 1 Mazak Variaxis J600. Normally we program it in Mazatrol, but I am trying some software to program it in g-code. The biggest problem is no one in the shop knows g-code. The issue I am asking here is how to use g54.2 to index. The machine is not capable of 5 axis movement but we still can't get it to index correctly. It will index to the correct angle but the tool doesn't track to the correct place. Would anyone be able to help us and guide us through to making good parts?

We are running Mastercam with our Mazak Variaxis and I think our post is set up wrong. Each time we run a part, we have to repost the program. my operators are telling me that if the tooling isnt set up exactly the same as the previous time we ran the part then the program has to be reposted. Does anyone know if this is true and/or if the problem can be overcome?
