Bobcad 31 Hurco lathe post radius problems

[TRussell]

I'm trying post code for a spherical radius using Bobcad 31, and I'm getting some pretty funny stuff. I figured out how to edit the post, but I'm not sure what the code is supposed to look like. The code that I'm posting cuts the ends of the sphere small.

One pic shows what I'm getting now, one pic shows my first try, where I got an almost segmented surface. I changed the CAD and CAM tolerances in the part setting menu, and that gave me a smooth surface, but the ends are small. I ran only the roughing operation, and that seems fine.

The last pic is what I need to end up with. Any help would be much appreciated.

Here's the code for the finish pass

Most likely an issue of BNC vs ISNC. Your machine is probably running one while the post is outputting for the other.

Thanks for responding goooose. I found something on the HURCO website and changed some settings. I'm going to try this again.

Well, I found the NC settings in the HURCO control,and tried them all.
It still didn't work. I may have to pay for support. I just assumed that the posts Bobcad have on their website worked.

Try posting with R instead of I/K. When I looked at the numbers the I/K's looked off compared to what I would expect for a Fanuc control. Note, assuming your geometry and toolpath have been created correctly here.

Holy shit! It looks like it will work posting R.

That worked gooose, thanks a lot. I'm out of my depth when it comes to setting up posts. Thank God it isn't necessary too often.
