Gentlemen,
Had to put a part back on a mazak 6800 horizontal with a fusion 640m control
and when it went to spotface two holes it went all the way through. Touched off the tool with the jack in the box tool setter and it moved maybe .00015 or so. The programmed depth of the tool was Z .710 so I went in the program and went to Z 1.125 and that was still to deep, ended up at Z 1.265 which is .555 different from the last time I ran it. So I think it's something in the tool file,tool data and/or tool offset that's screwing me. The part is programmed in G code format, which is the only way to fly. The part use to be programmed in mazatrol, but that sucked so I reprogrammed it in G code and took 17 minutes off the cycle time. So my question, is one of those three tool options messing with my depth? Thank You
Fanuc-Tool offset only, you don't need more.
