Hello;
I am looking for a few sample programs using the c-axis feature for the lathe.
The equipment I will be using is Yama seiki ga-2000 series
with a fanuc Oi TB controller
I am looking for milling,drilling and tapping examples.
I am also wondering about the difference in using either the c or h for controlling the chuck rotation?
my email is

Thank you
:D You would be better off looking at your manuals for prog examples as each machine maker seems to use different codes for activating live tooling
other than this drill tapping and basic milling are the same as turning G01 for feed you feed per rev or meters per min. you are just dealing with X, Z in a slightly different way.
C usually is absolute degrees H is incremental move.
ST
Thats the problem I am having the maker did not include any examples.
The m codes are ,
m18 c-axis cancel
m19 c-axis on
m29 rigid tapping
m73 revolve tool forward
m74 reverse
m75 stop
H and c as you mentioned
What G-codes are involved other than g97,g98
Thanks
G87 AND G88 are drilling and tapping with the -X- axis on the od of a part
Thank you King,
Got any sample programs?
don't know if this will work for you but this is from a fanuc control
q has to be reapeted on every line
r is an incremental value from x start point
remember x is diametrical and y is radial
substitute G88 for the tap. g88 is already rigid tap mode

This is a recent Drill and Tap program I used on our Leadwell CNC with Fanuc OiTB Control. We don't have B-Axis to cross-mill and can only Mill, Drill and Tap on the centerline in the Z direction only. Remember when milling, your finish depth will be in diameter. I tried to add notes where possible. I hope this helps.

Hi CNC king ,I know it's a long shot as this post I'm replying to is really old but I have to mill this shape (external profile) and am proper stuck using c axis face milling ,I'm working a cmz turn mill 32i fanuc controls ,Quote:

If you can't see the attachment then maybe you can forward an email address and I can send it to you ,I'm on my own in the workshop so under quite a bit of pressure to sort this.
Many thanks

To determine if your control has the Polar Interpolation function, create a short program as follows:
G112 (or G12.1)
M00
G113 (or G13.)
M30
If the control accepts G112 (or G12.1) without raising a p/s 010 alarm, then your control has the option. If no alarm results, run the above program to the end to ensure Polar Interpolation is cancelled with G113 (or G13.1). If a p/s 010 alarm results, go no further and delete the program, as in this case it will have been confirmed that the control does not have the Polar Interpolation option.

Where are you now guys! you've been talking about c axis 20 years ago! after 20 years I'm again searching for that content. you are very great. hope to see this message in health!
