Hi all,
New to Forum. I've been a CAD/CAM machinist for around 20 years now, but have spent my whole time on Heidenhain controllers. I've recently bought myself a small Chinese VMC for my garage at home, and am having to learn G code programming quickly. The problem I'm having is the post is producing programs with the G43 H### line in it after a tool change, but has the first Z movement in the line as well, problem is sometimes it activates the height compensation, and sometimes it doesn't. It's difficult to understand, as I can restart the same program, and sometimes it will activate it.
I would have thought the G43 H## should be on a separate line before any Z movement?
Regards
Mario
