Title: OD facing wizard cuts a taper not parallel
Post by: berty on June 03, 2009, 04:42:35 AM
I am still in convertion and setting up stage with lathe and occasionally i use it in manual to do small jobs

I tried to use the OD facing wizard but the machine gave a perfect tapper cut the when tool approached next cut the depth of cut stayed the same

I think it must be an offset problem but I am at a loss where to look for it

Maybee some one knows the answer

Cheers Bert

Can you post the code that is getting put out please, I have used the wizard before and it worked fine but it was a long time ago.
