Everything was fine until I used Force Tool change option and the Coolant stopped outputting correctly, had to re debug and find the problem (it was posting "clean"). Īn example would be that I have just finished updating all my mill Posts to fresh MPMASTER bases to get the Productivity + codes and just generally clean thins up. Just be careful, your post is apparently giving you exactly what you want but you are "cheating" the system, which might not work under ALL circumstances so a problem or crash could just come out of the blue. It can save hours of work especially say converting a Vertical 4 Axis to a Horizontal 4 Axis machine. The reason is that if you were programmed incrementally you could achieve what you want simply by selecting the new WCS Z0 and regenerating. Just as a matter of interest most experienced MC users program in incremental (there are a few places where I use absolute in 3 axis ). It would be a fast and easy way to not have to edit all my toolpath cut depths.Īnd to answer your question, I am using Absolute in linking parameters. I just so happened the stumble across the AXYZ post processor doing exactly what I wanted to do by simply putting the WCS toolplane at 0.7" for Z. So now I have 100 old toolpaths that I would have to change all z depths to a positive amount for cuts. I always z zeroed off the top of the stock.
The old one, I never z zeroed off the spoilboard. The reason I am trying to do all this is because I am going from an old CNC to a new one. 7 and then machine Z-.25? Why not just set the WCS at Z.45? Don't make it more complicated than it needs to be. Now you can lie to the system and say I don't want to machine the geometry at a different Z level but this can be a slippery slope which is easy to loose track of. Are you using absolute or incremental on the linking page? Usually people will use a solid model or geometry arranged in the same way it is on the part. It is how you are setting up your toolpaths. I don't think this is a post processer issue.

How can I integrate the AXYZ post processor code into the Generic Fanuc 3X post processor that works with my CNC?Īttached is the AXYZ post processor (in TXT file) AXYZ GENERIC 3X GENERIC 3X The AXYZ post processor basically does all the math for me, and I can still use negative (-) z cut numbers in the linking parameters rather than positive numbers, which makes my life easier. With the AXYZ post processor, it will autom AXYZ GENERIC 3X atically output the gcode to actually cut at 0.45", though in the linking parameters, I actually have written a -0.25" depth of cut. The issue I then have with my normal Generic Fanuc 3X post processor is that it will obviously read a depth of cut of -0.25" when I put that number in the linking parameters. This way, I don't have to physically move the geometry up to the top of stock. I set the toolpath WCS tool plane to 0.7" above the toolpath geometry. All my geometry is laid out on the bottom of the stock. I set Z zero of my stock at the bottom corner (or spoilboard top). Specifically, I think it has to do with pmatrix_su, pshft_map, and pxyzcout. I know very little about editing post processors but I believe the post processor code I am looking for in the AXYZ post resides in " #Position Calculations " section. The features I would like to add are actually from a AXYZ Generic 3X post. I am trying to add some features into a Generic Fanuc 3X post processor.
