Hi Graham,

Thanks for replying, I managed to get going using a line you suggested to someone else the tool change line G43 M6 T1 H1 and it is working great. The only thing it won't do now is G41 and G42 so i have to re-write the program not a disaster I know but would be nice for when machining stuff spot on. I have attached a working program. Any coments on tool offset would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again Paul

G-Code, CAD, and CAM discussions / Mach 2 not working with G code produced by Turbo Cad/Cam

Hi There
I have a cnc mill running Mach 2 and am at my wits end trying to get it to run g-code produced by TurboCad/Cam. It loads in the file fine and produces a profile on screen. When you go to run the program it does the tool change gets to the G54 line and then sits there doing nothing. Has anyone used this set up with mach 2? Any help would be really appreciated
