Y axis allignment

racen857 · Oct 9, 2012

Is there a parameter that you can adjust your tools for the Y axis without changing the turret. Most of my tools are on the same Y axis centerline a few are from .004 - .007 off. When I put a y offset in the tool data the machine alarms out after it uses the tool because when the machine returns to the tool change possition it only homes X, Z not Y.

Any help?

Machine is a mazak quick turn nexus 250-II MSY

I have one Y axis machine that doesn't have nearly enough Y- clearance to the way covers.
As a rule - I always send Y+1.000 at "tool change" and then back to Y0 for the cut.

It doesn't solve my covers issue, but it does slow down the time to re-order at least ....\

(not a Mazak)

Thats a nice feature. A mazak won't do a tool change unless it is at Y.000.

Thanks

It does not seem to be in the N parameters, but thanks anyway.
