I'm trying to write a post for a Fanuc based machine with a 4th axis rotary table.
Currently the operators position their part relative to the pivot of the table. I would like to change that, if possible, and use RTCP so that the operator can just pick up the datum of the block (like using M128 on a Heidenhain controller).
Is this possible in Fanuc?
Also, they have requested that the tool move to the max Z and max Y positions before rotating. In Heidenhain I would just use M91 or M92 and use values that are relative to the machine. Is there a counterpart of this method in Fanuc language?
Thanks,
Dan
