Hi everybody, Im new to cnc zone.com so be gentle.
Has anybody noticed that when using the helix option when milling a bore. That when you process the code it puts the cutter comp at the end of the operation. We have a HAAS VF6 and an ancient mazak with mazatrol and the software does the same thing with both of them. So if your milling a 2.25" bore and your using a 2" cutter and you have a .5" line move or the last move before the operation is greater than the difference between cutter and finished hole youu will have one hell of a wreck at the end of the op.
P.S Im too lazy to manually put the code in the right place.
