Thanks to those who tested V2.

It is available to download here: CNC Mate :: Engineering Calculator

I forgot to mention, I'm also looking for someone with Fanuc i Series controls interesting program transfer, preferably with multi path but not essential.

CNC Mate Version 2 is out soon.

New features include:

Metric/Imperial
Parameter Builder
Different Threads (Metric / UNC / PT etc)
Conversion Tool

Hello.

I wrote the software CNC Mate a while ago and i have since realised i missed somethings out.

So i have decided to rewrite it with all existing features and some new features. The main...

I'm not really 100% sure what you are trying to achieve, but if you are looking to extract data from a Fanuc CNC, look on this site. CNC Data LTD – CNC Data Collection and Monitoring Software | We...

Hello.

Does anyone have any technical information on a Heldt & Rossi Servo DX 808?

In particular we are looking for information regarding the potentiometer pots on the front.

Any information...

Hey.

A few old friends have mine have just put free Fanuc Focas data collection application on their site, pretty cool stuff. Good videos too.

CNC Data LTD – CNC Data Collection and Monitoring...

I have this software, it comes with a USB Sentinel security key, so unless you have the key, the software will not work.

No point downloading.

Fanuc Guy is right.

I don't know if you know how to program in VB or C#, if not find someone that does, use the Focas Libs to extract all the data you could imagine. Here is the data you can get...

It should be [SYS] {pmc} {>} {>} {>} {MONITOR}

Try setting K17.1 to a 1. It might cure it, but i can't remember. It enables editing etc of the PMC.

Yeah, it's pretty intense. It really depends on the student, the cleverer ones get through it all. It's aimed as a starting block. I have written all my own manuals with working examples in, so they...

It's three days, covering local, common and system variables. Calculations and Trig. PMC integration and macro interrupt etc. Then they do 4 projects.

The cost varies, in house its £875.00 80% of...

I run Macro B courses in the UK. Good fun.

Hi Dave.

I have made the changes you stated below, thanks for your feedback.

I can't uplaod the updated version at the moment, server is down, it will be up tomorrow.

The angle (right angle and oblique) calculator now handles inches.

I'm not in the office until monday morning where i have networked CNC rigs, if you haven't found an answer by then, repost on here to remind me and i'll find you the answer.

Hi Sinha, i might do something like that, but it is a while off yet due to lack of time. In the mean time i might create a CNC tutorial site, for NC programming, Macro B, PMC and maintenance. What do...

Hi Dave.

I might have made a mistake by not including inches from the start as i know in the U.S everything is inches. I am now going to add inch calculations. It will update the software...

Yeah try 5 or 9 (cant remember). I know when i extract data using focas the port settings are ignored, but if its wrong it's probably the cause.

I did think about it but there is way to much to cover, there are over 2500 pages in the fanuc manual. I am thinking about adding a PMC section to my software, along with a few other bits and bobs. I...

Has anyone downloaded yet?

I'm the same. i try to spend as little time as possible on theory, because you can see they get bored quickly and loose interest.
Hands on learning is the best way with CNC's. Plus you have to enjoy...

I think we have a lot in common Sinha. I was responsible for training in the UK. CNC College education in the UK is not so good either. Part of the HNC requirement is now CNC. Next thing i had a load...

I wrote cncmate as a project for a few requirements i had, mainly a quick way to edit and upload programs. Also the ASCII and Hex conversions too.

Nowadays i write PMC's, custom screens, macro b...

I worked at GE Fanuc until last Christmas, you find out all the weird and wonderful little things working there. More importantly you learn where to look.

Hi guys.

Looking for any feedback, improvements or suggestions you have on this software.

Thanks.

Did you put the ASCII sub call part in there that i told you about?

The CNC Mate is a valuable utility program...

Sinha's book is really good. I was going to write my own book, but he beat me too it ;)

There is some desktop software with a Macro B section CNC Mate - Engineering Calculator
