    Tool Change Table Position

    I need help moving(locating) my table before tool change towards the right front of the machine using machine coordinates (away from the spindle). I have a DATC that moves the tool lower and eventually crashes to the parts itself. Is there a macro/command that i can use to call before M6? I want the Z to move to the highest location then move the XY location before making tool change. Thanks in Advance!!!

    Re: Tool Change Table Position

    You could just create a Subroutine to position the Machine and then execute the Tool change, And then get it back where you were with another subroutine if needed.
