Hello all, I tried searching for this since it has to be something brought up on the forums, but I couldn't find anything

I'm running the same part on different offsets. When the machine moves to the next offset to start the program over the Z-axis drops .100 between moves.


Here is a sample of my program:

N1 G00 G40 G80 G90
T01 M06 (3/8 3 FLUTE CRB EM)
M08
S3250 M03
G54 X.23 Y-2.1525
G43 Z.1 H01
G01 Z-.385 F50.
G41 D01 X.23 Y-1.8405 F30.

Blah blah blah

G01 X-.03 Y-1.6355
G03 X-.23 Y-1.8355 I0 J-.2 F30.
G40 G01 X-.23 Y-2.1475
G00 Z1.
G55 X.23 Y-2.1525
Z.1
G01 Z-.385 F50.
G41 D01 X.23 Y-1.8405 F30.


I have the Z-axis move "G00 Z1." to clear any clamps, but when the next line "G55 X.23 Y-2.1525" the Z drops .100 then while moving to the new offset it will raise back to 1in. I have no height comp on any of the offsets (AKA Z's are set to 0).


Any help would be great!!!


Thanks,

Hi Aero,

I'd write this way I don't know if it would make any difference to your problem, but I use work offsets all the time and I don't get the moves you are seeing.

G01 X-.03 Y-1.6355
G03 X-.23 Y-1.8355 I0 J-.2 F30.
G40 G01 X-.23 Y-2.1475
G00 Z1.
G55
G00 X.23 Y-2.1525
G00 Z.1
G01 Z-.385 F50.
G41 D01 X.23 Y-1.8405 F30

I tried that and got the same results

Attach your xml, your fixtures.dat, tools3.dat and your code and maybe the problem can be found.

OK here are the files, zipped.



Thanks for the help

Aero

I see you are using the DSPMC, possibly the issue relates to that?

I will talk to Rufi and see what he thinks.

Let us know either way please.
Hood

I will once I talk to Rufi.
