I am running master as there are pins I require for my setup. I have everything coming together and was going to do a simple video of the machine spot drilling, drill hole - then rigid tap. I thought emc would read ahead and pre-fetch the tool that was required. It didn't read ahead and acutally paused everything while it was finding the tool (like T583M06). So I thought I would just put the next tool (T) after the last M6. (see program below). There was no motion until the tool was found. So - in the program below - the machine paused everything while it was searching for tool 6153. Each time emc read the T number - all motion was paused until the tool was found. I will do some more experimenting to make sure I am not doing something stupid. :)
Thanks - Emc is an awesome piece of software. I cannot believe everything it does and it does it very well. thanks sam T6153 G0X0Y0S2000 (SPOTTING DRILL) Z.05 M03 G01Z-.15F10 G0Z.1 m05 (CHUCKED DRILL) M06 T7182 G0X0Y0S2000 Z2.811m03 G83G98X0Y0Z1.761R2.761Q.1f10 G0z2.811m05 (tap drill) m06 T5137 G0X0Y0S1000 Z9.311m03 G83G98X0Y0Z8.261R9.261Q.1f10 G0Z9.311m05 (tapping) M06 T5136 G0X0Y0S60 Z4.571 M03 G33.1Z3.471K.125 M05 m06 G0G53Z24 G0G53X38Y36 m30 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Gaining the trust of online customers is vital for the success of any company that requires sensitive data to be transmitted over the Web.
