Here is a sample of our program:
M3S300;
G84 X0 Y0 R.1 Z-1. F23.;
Believe program should be written this way:
G94
M29S300
G84G99Z-1.R.1F23.
We have to use a thick tapping paste. I've always been able to use coolant from the mill.
Will need to edit these variables I believe as well:
5200 from 1 to 0 to allow M code for tapping.
5210 from 1 to 0 to activate allow M29 code.
5212 is set to 29. specifies a rigid tapping mode.
Should I really need to have to add tapping paste?
Using a floating head. Can i still use this for rigid tapping?
Also noticed that tap doesn't really come to a stop.
Tap reverses almost instantly.
Opinions? Right track?
