At first I hated that connector thing, and I will admit I didn't have a chance to use Gibbs for very long, ibuse Mastercam everyday, and what I really like about gibs was some of the toolpath...
I would like to know if you ever got this to work?? I am very interested in this cause I get a lot of huge plates that are close to impossible to move once on the table, I get them close with stop...
Gary thanks for the reply, the next day my batteries for the spindle probe came in, and you were right on target, when I probed Z surface, all the tool lengths were correct, up until this point I had...
We have a haas vf-9 it has a renishaw ts27r tool probe, I was not there when probe was installed, and other cnc guy got fired so its just me, anyways I have used a probe on other machines, and the...
do you always have to extend the open side of the pocket so the cutter will come completely off?
what format is the stock displayed

PS LC,[-46,0],[47,12]

can someone tell me how this works? i am guessing that it is metric, this is just...
I changed the tool format to T xxxxxx and then it would take the G41/42, so i got that figured out
Ok fordav11 so you are saying i don't really have to use the G41/42 as long as i have the TNR filled out on the offset page at the machine? it seems to be working ok with just straight G code no...
i believe i figured it out today, once i took out the tool comp G42 and G41 it seemed to work, a little background on what im doing, i am trying to go off of the former programmers code, and i...
The alarm i get is 2286-11, it makes no sense to me, cause i can hack the program up and parts of it will work fine, even with almost the exact same positioning,
it must have been an option because none of our machines have it, it would be awesome if they did! for some reason i keep getting a plus axis over variable alarm on the XA, i will post some code...
I was wondering if anyone could walk me through the steps of setting my work zero points X and Z, and also offsetting tools, i have a tool setter but it seems to be stuck, so i would like to do it...
Thanks for all the advise guys, MCR-B II, what is IGF? i have been working out the bugs with my post processor, we are running bobcam, i believe i finally have a good program, i will know tomorrow...
Hi, i was wondering if someone with okuma dual turret machines can give me an example of the G code they run, i walked into this position where i have about 15 lathes mostly osp 7000l's but a few are...
What about people who just purchased V26? mine is only 4 weeks old, and i would love to update,
im running bobcad V26, I was just wondering why the show/hide workpiece button was not active? does simulation not allow this for lathe parts? Thanks for the help
lenny09, that wont change the problem, you have to edit the post processor, line 249 output X as diameter or radius, once i changed that i was good to go!!
I have to give praise to Alan at bobcad, if anyone else has this problem, it is in the post, there is a section, to output in Rad or diameter
well it is a lathe im working on, okuma osp-200-lr to be exact, and yes 2 is the radius of 4, but the code should out put in diameter i would assume, the machine is going by diameter, so if i would...
When bobcad post's the code, it is in radius mode, ex 4.0 diameter part, bobcad will post out x2.0 instead of x4.0, where do i change this setting? is it in the post? or is it changed in bobcad...
its not really a big deal, and we dont dnc from predator anyway, older machines have dnc boxes right at the machines, or the newer ones can just load files from the network via ethernet, i was just...
we just got v26, we have 16 okuma lathes most with bar feeders and dual turrets, previously everything was programmed by hand, now we are have bobcam, i have used bobcam on a regular single turret...
i did contact support, they had me download and install v24, to get that to work, it didnt work so i called back and spoke with cody today, and i guess you only get syntax highlighting if i pay more...
there are some holes that go into the face, but thats about it for mill work , its a bronze bushing of some sort, with OD and ID grooves, and its being ran on a okuma lathe with dual turrets, which i...
in predator editor, isnt there a color option under format? usually it will turn your Z moves red? i do not have that option, anyone else ever have that problem? i just noticed that when predator is...
i was wondering if someone could help me out with grooves, i have tried diffrent tool comp settings but nothing seems to to cut it correctly, i have attached the file any help would be much...
i was wondering if anyone has any issues with grooving in v26, if i have comp on g41 it will kinda work, i have a groove with a .01 rad on each side, it will cut the left side, but wont cut the rad...
