« on: August 15, 2008, 07:57:46 AM »

Hello,
 Is there anything in the works for a optional finish pass for pocketing wizards?And also for Circle mill,Cut Rectangle.
Example...Option to have a Finish pass on sides and depth,or Sides & no fin depth,or viseversa.
Its on our "industrial" mill here and works very nice.
Thanks,
Troy

« on: August 13, 2008, 07:49:20 PM »

Hello, i need my mill to bring Z axis down after X and Y are in postion.
Below is example of a Bolt Circle Program by Mach NFS...

(Code by Newfangled Wizard, 8/13/2008)
(Program Posted for Aluminum )
G0 G49 G40.1 G17
G80 G50 G90 G98 
G20 (Inch)
(***** Circular Hole Pattern *****)
M6 T3
M03 S4000
M9
G00 G43 H3 Z0.2<(Need this removed)
G81(Need G99 added here for drill cycles) X2 Y0 Z-0.3 R0.1 F7.9
 X1.6235 Y0.7818
 X0.7775 Y0.9749
 X0.099 Y0.4339
 X0.099 Y-0.4339
 X0.7775 Y-0.9749
 X1.6235 Y-0.7818
G80
M5 M9
M30

As for milling operation i need Z to come down to ref position AFTER X & Y are in position.
Is there a way to have Mach do this automaticaly?Like with VB or Brain,I dont know.

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / Multi-Hole wizard Change?

« on: June 24, 2008, 11:21:26 AM »

Can you add a Z axis DRO to the Multi-Hole wizard,so if you have holes that need to go to a different depth.And maybe a Reference height for each hole?

Newfangled Solutions Mach3 Wizards / M1 option in NFS wizards

« on: June 24, 2008, 11:10:25 AM »

Hello Ron,
  Wondering if a M1 option could be added to wizards.So the machine would pause after its in position at every hole,or at start of a pocket,or any of the 2 D wizard operations.This would help MUCH when using a 2 axis mill.(X and Y axis).I would help in any testing thats needed.
