General Mach Discussion / Re: Using Fanuc code with Mach3: problem...
« on: June 29, 2009, 02:33:57 AM »
Thanks vmax549: it is a 6 teeth Vardex insert. The code is correct. On a different milling center (but with Fanuc controller...) and the very same tool naturally it works fine.
Hood I've changed the G57 to G54: is acting the same!!! the first line of code - even startig the program right away, even referring all to home, even trying to do anything I coul possibly think - changes the origin from 0,0 in X & Y to somethig else whch seems to be a machine coordinates (sometimes). Naturally this blow up everything since it thinks to have the taper in one position which it in not!
I start from the center of the upper face of the taper referring it as X & Y 0 and having set Z with the right height.
The program mistake something the code since it chages them...
I've tried to input one single G code per line but nothing is changing.
I'll try a candidate release (or older if I cn find it) relese just in case.
But is there around a Fanuc translator just in case is somethng Mach3 doe'nt like from GCode written for Fanuc?
Thanx anyway guys.
