    Hello!

    I hope that someone can help me!

    When I reference the C-axis
    G74 C0
    is obvious.

    Does the reference point of the spindle refer to the point where it stands at the moment?

    Or is it defined in a certain turning position?
    As in G18 in X and Z

    Example:
    I wrote G74 C0, later I reference it again. G74 C0.

    Is it then the same position as in the first call?

    Regards, lolo

    Hi lolo26!

    Yes, G74 always refers to a certain point. If it wasn’t so, that would be bad!!!

    Hello again

    I have one more problem with the C-axis.
    I want to have holes in plane surface. C-axis is chosen and diameter position of the holes is established.

    Problem:





    Details of the straight line, where exactly is actually C+0?

    +X or +Y and the turning direction.

    And what is about TRANSMIT? The same position?

    I need help!
    Regards, lolo

    Hello

    I’d say, in your case:

    C0 is in the X+ axis

    C43 and C260 or C-100 and the X value.

    Rotation direction of the spindle is clockwise.

    Y value isn’t considered.


    What about transmit – I don’t know…

    I would program it the following way:

    C=DC(43)

    and


    C=DC(260)

    Turn in the shortest way!

    To save time!
