    Incorporating a pallet change into a program

    I don't have much experience programing a CNC mill. I have a Takumi (yes I know) with a Fanuc 18m controller. I want to make a program that after the end of the cycle rotates the pallets and machines the same part as side A. I am just running production on the mill, drilling holes. Nothing special. I just don't know how to call program, run the program and the rotate the pallets after the program is finished.

    Any help is very much appreciated. Thanks.

    Re: Incorporating a pallet change into a program

    Many ways, you could set up a sub program where you program the part then call the sub program in different angles on the pallet. Depending on machine maybe you have B instead of C.
    F.eks
    O1
    PROGRAM
    M99

    O2
    C0
    M98P1
    C180.
    M98P1
    M30

    M98 is calling sub program, M99 is in end of sub to jump back to main program.
    P is program number
    This should be explained pretty well in you fanuc programming manual.
    You can maybe do sub program in program
    Where Q is N

    O1
    C0
    M98Q100
    C180.
    M98Q100
    M30

    N100
    PROGRAM
    M99
