    Activate G54-G59 on Fanuc 32i- MODEL B

    Hello, I have a problem on the CNC machine, with the controller Fanuc 32i-MODEL B, and the manual says it has a 'Work' page, where is the G54, G55, etc, but when I press Offset, appears only 'Work Shift' softkey. Someone could tell me how to activate this page? Thanks.

    It must be a single spindle lathe, or a swiss since it is a 32. You dont have G54~59.

    It would probably be a Fanuc option that you must purchase.

    So why do you think you need it? By it not being a included option should clue you into the fact that you are going "off the rez".

    A two axis lathe can do anything you would want from G54 with only workshift and g10. A swiss will likely have pmc and macro features from the MTB that will not work with G54.

    Hi Simce555,

    On my Fanuc-18T with robot and 2-side turning I use f.e. G10 P0 Z503.250 ( Workshift value ) at the start of the program,
    2nd side has a different f.e. G10 P0 Z505.345, this lathe doesn't have the G54-G59 aswell.
    You can try this in MDI-mode, f.e. G10 P0 Z100.
    At your Work-Shift page it has to show a value of Z100.
    Last call from G10 remains active until another G10 (value) is programmed.

    Regards,
    Heavy_Metal.

    I work at a company that produces grinders customers have a request for G54-G59 function. The company is just starting out with the Fanuc control unit i am currently writing a CNC program on a tight machine.So far, working with the Siemens control unit, Fanuc is being introduced next year.
    All the best

    If anyone has documentation for CNC programming on the Fanuc control system. I would be very grateful if he could forward it to me in the mail or post it to the forum. Thanks in advance.
