Subject:        [mfg-smartcam] A lathe G01 plunge in move is coded as a G02 move?




Iâve attached a .SH2 lathe file along with its coded file and its job setup file for a horizontal

lathe using a Fanuc 6T General Electric control. Early 80âs vintage stuff.

 

Hopefully the files will make it through.

If they do my question isâ

 

On T15 element 34 in the shape file I have the boring bar plunging in .004â per side.

 

This is the code that SC generates for that .004â  plunge in move.

 

N0460G01X4.909Z-1.0472

N0470( SEMI-FINISH ID TO 4.971 DIAMETER )

N0480Z-10.25

N0490G02X4.917Z-10.2652I0.031   Ãwhy do I get this?

N0500( NEXT MOVE BORES ID TO 4.9790 DIA )

N0510G01Z-11.19

 

Why does SC output a G02 move for the .004â plunge in move?

 

For manual editing at the machine control due to taper problems

it is easier, and a lot less error prone to have a G01 move like soâ

 

N0460G01X4.909Z-1.0472

N0470( SEMI-FINISH ID TO 4.971 DIAMETER )

N0480Z-10.25

N0490X4.917                 Ãthis line should be G01

N0500( NEXT MOVE BORES ID TO 4.9790 DIA )

N0510G01Z-11.19

 

Any reasons why this occurs?

I do not have V11.5 lathe so I cannot see whether or not it happens when

coding with that package.

 

I am using the center of the rad on the insert tip, not the virtual tip

because that is my customerâs request.
