Has anyone experienced issues getting the cutter comp to work on Mazak lathes. The machine doesn't seem to be acknowledging the G41 or G42.

To clarify it is comping out in X but it's also comping in Z? It's been awhile since I've done any programming, but our programmer was curious if I could help.

In straight cutting or roughing/finishing cycles? Is the tool tip set to the right quadrant?

its the finishing pass in particular where he is trying to generate a corner break and the tool is set to the correct quadrant. I guess the programmer got rid of the comp and figures the operator can deburr the part rather than pull his hair out ha ha. Still curious what the issue is though.

I think he is using a CAM software and it's the sub spindle I believe.
