While I would gladly debate (on the For side) the capability of our modern machines ability to preform both in-process and final inspection (post ISO-accepted calibration); to answer your question...

1) If he likes getting a great deal, he's getting about 19k in hardware and software for 6k installed if it WIPS from Haas direct.

2) If he likes G code, then he'll love VQC!

3) If he likes...

Just some FYI and clarification for all on this thread. All Haas VMC and HMC with WIPS have Renishaw Inspection Plus macros running in the background (O9000 series subs). The VQC interface accesses...

Nope....several companies used to make printers that you could hook direct, but not anymore. You'd need a legacy printer from about 15 years back.

Yes, we'll be happy to help as needed.

Easy....if you are using a Renishaw probe, then you will have Inspection Plus macro software. If thats the case, then just add a W1. or W2. on to the end of your probing cycle...like this:

G65...

LOL...yep, therein lies the great mystery that cause this company to be created....why do shops spend thousands on these devices and not use them? We are finally starting to change that. If you...

Haastec- yop, you are 100% correct! I just felt it was also important to clarify and to point out that with Renishaw I+ (operating in the background on Haas), you don't necessarly have to be able...

Yes...correct....S1=G54, S2=G55, S3=G56. S101 starts the extenced work offsets. Z1.395 is the radius of the cylinder he's working on. 2.790 is the diameter. If his work offset Z was set to zero...

Something else I thought I should mention...when your using an S word in a probing cycle, you have switched the intention of the software from asking it "what a feature dimension is", to telling it...

Working for center...fine. Your 9811's would then be Z1.395. Yes, you can use G0 or G1 whenever you like because your not actally burried in a macro cycle. Your program might look like this:
...

Yes, overall you are correct with your program. I am assuming that your Z0 is not the center of the part, rather the actual surface you are engraving on. If that is correct, then your program is...

The above recommendations are excellent and both will work with some specific editing on your part. Double a-ron is correct....this is very much just the tip of the iceberg. All Haas machines that...

Hey,

I'm sure you've found out eveything you want to know about this. If your ever interested in selling it, let me know. 406-250-3424.

Thanks for the responce! I've got the Fanuc DVD, but it's not much better to navigate than the old yellow books. Do you happen to have the I/O channel specs? 5 is Dataserver, 0 is serial, I think...

Hey,

Anyone know what the Fanuc 16i parameters are for the I/O Channel? Want to G10 the channel from Dataserver to Serial on the fly.

Hey there,

I ran accross this post from a few months back. Did you resolve your questions about the G68? If you did, great! If not, of if you have other probing questions we are as close to...

Yep, we have done that before, when we could get access. We just figued out a fix...instead of running open/close we went close/open and ran it through the realy twice. This slowed the signal down...

Hey Al,

Thanks for the quick reply. The control is a 1999 15M. We just tried runing through the finishing relays twice to slow the signal down, but no go. I have seen M codes that can work...

Kitamura HMC w/Fanuc control 1999. Trying to configure M code relays for M32/M33. Optional M code are all Finishing style. M32/M33 both open/close too quickly. Machine won't act on a m code dwell...
