Tried the autodesk generic post for Fadal and it worked well....
Not sure where I got the other one from, but thanks to all those for the input!!

Ah yes..I see it.
Going to try a different post, the original Fadal from Autodesk.
Thanks for the help!!

Doug

Oh? I was using another post from a fusion 360 chat. Called CNC88HS Fadal / 1444_CNC88HS

I will try with the Fadal.cps post.

You ran it on your machine with no issues? After T17 when it goes...

Hi all

Wonder if anyone has a good post processor for the Fadal88HS?

I've messed around with the clearance height and retract heights but after the initial tool change the second and following...

Hi

Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction. I'm looking for a brake cable (foot pedal) for a Kohema 860 manual lathe. This lathe is basically a Mazak 860 that Korean heavy...

Hi

Just wondering if anyone out there has done any PLC programming or set up their machine so a 'A' axis command will not be issued until either a slight delay for brake to come off or something...

So after much messing around, loaded mach on another computer and set it up without some plug ins and it is working as it should....will try removing some plugins like ajax and kflop and see if it...

seems like its a issue with the C10 BOB but cannot verify yet.

So I added another drive Y axis, now when I do g00 y-22 both x and y axis moves at same time. (jogging) Motor outputs shows step and direction as 9 & 8 for x and 5 & 4 for Y...any ideas?

did you get this working? I'm having same issue

Hi

Working on a new plasma table project and running into issues getting servo to move when using step command. Servo will run all day back and forth using jog commands but when I switch it to...

Just curious as I have my machine with the full kit installed and amp, also have the dummy plug installed but I was still getting a error message when the A axis wasn't actually connected. That is...

what happens if you don't have this plug in when you are not using 4th?

Hi

Having a issue with Jog key. Not sure if it's a board problem or dirty contacts on keypad, hopefully someone has had some previous experience?

When doing certain functions, like setting...

Issue resolved, replaced all axis boards with -4's and machine boots up much faster and faults gone.

Hi Brad

The only issue with that code is when you have a tool with a positive length compensation, when the G49 comes off the tool wants to go down to the zero guage line eg. if i use my Haimer 3D...

Sorry for late reply, this work thing keeps getting in the way...I haven't really gotten a chance to run it yet but by the posting it looks fantastic.

The generic fadal post that is bundled with...

Awesome, thanks Ben I'll give it a whirl later today!!

[QUOTE=Bm150;1506796]Changed end of file and put a0 back in as your last post.
no problems!

Lines 130-150 is the safe start - i have switched it off so you can compare and decide what is best?...

Ok, so I posted a program using it and ran into a issue with the machine ending lines. It does a strange move on line 1350, X and Y go off on a tour for some reason.
I moved line 1340 to 1351 and...

Okay I'll give it a whirl! Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

yes the tool change seems to be good like that.

Line 470 I mean.

Line 830 should have Z removed I think.
Line 860 and 870 can be combined to save a move

Tool change in line 470 i'm not sure if we want to cancel the work offset. Let me check it

The X0 Y0 is not required I forgot to remove.

Usually Imperial yes.

As long as there is a G53 Z0 before the E0 statement, otherwise it moves all three axis's simultaneously to the E0 position

if the ending code goes like this I have no unnecessary moves at the CS position

G53 Z0
X0 Y0
H0 Z0 E0
M30

As well the machine cancels compensation at the cold start E0 position

Sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean. The machine cold starts at 16" above the table, this is also the Z tool change position. From a tool change command the Z goes up another 4" grabs a tool off...

If I put E0 in it tries to go up past the cs (tool change postion) with the H0
If I remove the H0 or E0 from that line it is ok and stays at tool change or cs position

Nope sorry spoke to soon, I was using a tool with a negative compensation. If I use positive compensation it drives down same as H0

I would think it should be cancelled as I'm not sure of the repercussions down the line if it isn't. You are correct that usually the M6 would remove unless?
