Thanks! It's the standard Tormach post, so you probably have it already. If not, I'm happy to send it to you.
I appear to have the all posts version, as it has a lot of posts included. I've only tried the Tormach and Duality posts so far, but I assume that the others are functional.
I have a couple of major changes.
I want some headers at the beginning of the file.
Code:
%
O0000
(PROGRAM NAME)
(DATE: 11/01/11 TIME: 19:19) It would be nice if this would fill itself in.
(PROGRAMMED BY: FRED)
(MACHINE: TORMACH 1100 MILL)
(MATERIAL TYPE: )
(BLANK SIZE: )
(ORIGIN: )
(NOTES: )
And I would like to alter the way Sprut generates the tool list. I'm used to a specific format that my old job's MasterCAM post generated. It would be nice to keep things consistent.
Code:
(******START TOOLING LIST******)
( T20 1/4 FLAT ENDMILL | FLUTES: 3 )
( T53 ENGRAVING TOOL | 0.020" TIP, 15 DEGREE | FLUTES: 1 )
( T35 3/8 INCH CHAMFER MILL | FLUTES: 2 )
(*******END TOOLING LIST*******)
I'd like to also find and alter the way each operation ends. An M01 followed by a few line breaks for clarity would help a lot.
Then at the end of the file, I'd to add these two lines right before the M30.
Code:
N8720 G91 G28 Z0.
N8730 G90 G59 P20 X0. Y0. A0.
That's a lot to do, so please don't feel obligated to do it all. If you could just show me where in the post I should put these changes, I can probably figure out how to do it through trial and error.
Sincerely,
Frederic
