Title: step block and G81 not retracting out of hole before X and Y move, breaks drill
Post by: fixittt on May 02, 2017, 01:44:33 PM
From a client of mine running UC100 and version .062

This may be just a G81 system glitch (Drilling canned cycle), but I found
you can't use single step block when drilling holes.

It sort of turns the G81 to a G1. So the drill comes down and then it tries to move to the next hole
without it retracting.
It's s small drill bit so it just breaks


Anyone have any ideas?
