I go to set up some parts this morning, machine hasn't run in a couple weeks, but this is a repeat job, have run it several times before with the same program. Tool #2 is a 1/2" end mill to profile the end of two square bars, it comes down, does my .02" lead in arc and then stops on the second arc saying "error 505: Radius too small to span given points".
I always dump my program after a run, right back into my shop computer and re-save right over the top of the old program, so I'm sure to have any modifications I might have made during the run. I've even double checked the program to the office computer, which is the one before I ran the parts, this portion of the program is the same (I have modified feed rates and some points in the "running version"). I wrote down all the points and did the math, all the numbers jive, the I's and J's make sense.... I can't figure out why the machine (Partner 4, Centurion 5, by the way) would have any problems with the program.
Any suggestions as to why the machine wouldn't like a program it has run before succesfully?
Segment of the program that does this end where it is faulting out, it continues down to the other end of the parts, but I can't get past the second arc in the first pass, line #1030 (I do the profile three times, once at Z-.375, once at Z-.75 and a final spring cut at Z-.76....
