Hey guys, hoping someone can help me out with a probing question. I seem to remember on an older Haas machine I ran (2010?) that on the edge find routines for the probe cycle they had a shift value you could put in. Anyone else remember that? Now I know I could pick up the edge and then manually type in +.01 or whatever, but I want the machine to do this as I am running production. So what I want to do is pick up my edge in X and then add .002" to that value, is there a way to do that? My code for an edge find looks like this -
G65 P9023 A5. S54. (this picks up in the X plus direction)
I just recently found , through this forum I believe, that I can add a Q value to that where Q= the distance to travel looking for the edge. Is there another variable I can add to have it move the workshift after it picks up the edge? My machine is a Haas UMC-750, 2014 model. I know the above code calls up a 9000 series program and runs a macro in the background, I would prefer not to mess with any of that. Thanks for reading guys, looking forward to any help I can get.
