I now have a working 5-axis table-table EMC2 controlled machine and have cut my first 7-bladed impeller (turbo-charger type with slanted and curved blades). However, I have to provide GCODE for all 7 blades since G54 type offsets do not seem to work for the C-axis, whereas they seem to work for x-, y- and z-axes (in WORLD mode).
It would be nicer to index 51.43 deg around C-axis and then repeat the code for one blade 7 times. The C-axis is mounted on the A-axis which is mounted on the X, Y and Z axes in that order. Does anyone have an explanation for this behaviour? -- Rudy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Write once. Port to many.
