Hello forum,
I was hoping to get a little advise on how to program a part. I have a job that needs altering and I’m having trouble and of course, getting a little frazzled at the same time.
Im working on a Haas TM1 2007 cnc
To keep it simple: I have to machine 2 7/16 radius' on a small piece of sheet metal. Making a rectangle shape into an oblong shape.
Basically the tool path I must create will look like the parenthesis. (________________)
I used the haas circular calculator but it give me an error saying Invalid I,K,J in G02 G03.
I entered the center points of the radius, the start and end points and I programmed it to start at the 270 degrees and end at the 90 degree. The second cut was from 90 to 270. Errors
The center points of the radius in absolute positioning is x–7.4865,y-3.119 for the right side cut ----------> ) And x-9.1575, y-3.119 for the left cut. (
I believe I have all of the information necessary to perform the two cuts, I guess im having trouble with the g codes. Could it be a G90 VS G54 conflict?
I just couldn’t get this going today at work, yes I am rather out of practice but I was hoping someone here could give me some advise on the programming nuances. I just know it something simple. If anybody has any advise or pointers it would be much appreciated.
Thank You in Advance
DUCK

But realized my mistake and got it going when I was fresh the next day.
