Mach 3 tools
« on: January 18, 2018, 12:34:02 AM »
I am trying to run a program the will face the part drill the part and cut it off, on the simulator the program works. When I run it the tools never change and the G83 peck drilling operation just gets skipped over. I am new to cnc programing and need some help.
Running my program Mach3 does not recognize the tool numbers. I have tried T1 T0101 writing M6 before the line on the line and on the next line. When it come to the line with the tool change the tool box never changes from zero and my offsets are not recognized.

Hi,
on the Config/General Config page just checked that the tool change is not ignored.
