I am trying to mill flats and engrave numbers on the OD of a part. I looked at a few other post on here but I think I am more confused now. Can this be done in Mazatrol or do I have to use G code? Also the engraving will be serial numbers so is there a way to start a count say at 0001 and go up one for each part
I have EIA enabled on this machine. Does Polar and cylindrical interpolation need to be turned on? This is my first real part on a CNC lathe or on MAzatrol.
Also the engraving will be serial numbers so is there a way to start a count say at 0001 and go up one for each part or will I need to program each one separately? Reading through info I have gathered I will need to create a macro for each number and have the program call that sub program
I am planning to take some classes on Mazatrol as soon as I get a chance.
