Title: Fast movement, probing and retracting, probing again
Post by: sungyeolyang on August 14, 2022, 08:43:54 AM

hello

I found a new problem while processing probing
Change tool manually, do G31 probing each time.

  If the length of the tool is adjusted to the long case, it does not take much time to reach the touch plate.


If I'm using a short tool, if I feed it low with g31 code up to the touchplate, it takes a long time.

As usual, move the touch plate quickly to touch and
Move back again, slowly touch the touch plate and
I want to complete probing

Any ideas?

What is your question?  That's standard operating procedure implemented in any number of probing macros.

sungyeolyang,

G31 has a feed rate in the script.
You can modify the script to do a fast then slow probe

from my experience  , we also think alot about that issue  ,then we make the movement in 3 steps
first go fast to the old value + 50mm as safety ,and now become the BUT
so many times customer forget to put value before run the first time ,or make other mistake ,and almost each time accident you need reaplace the tool sensor and the tool also break ,so we do high point level and customer need wait some few second
