Hey guys! My CAM software spat out a weak G01/G00 peck drilling cycle on my Tsugami B325 w/ Fanuc 32i control. I tried changing it to a G83 peck cycle and (it all happened so fast ) it looked like it just rapid-ed into the part, broke the drill, backed out, and carried on with the next tool path (of course the one time I don't carefully step through the program ) I am sure Morris Midwest will hook me up with the answer but I cannot sleep until I figure this out and won't get back in until Tuesday. I searched both the Fanuc and Tsugami pdf manuals for "G83" and "peck" and found NOTHING! Here's the code and [what I think it means]
M23 S2203 P2 G00 Z3.718 T0101; [cross live tool on, 2203 RPMS, Motor #2, rapid to Z3.718, tool 1 offset 1]
X0.7503; [rapid to X.7503 - part is previously turned to .690" diameter]
M312; [spindle speed arrival confirmation]
G98 G83 X-.8035 Q5000 R.750 F3.3; [Initial X retract, peck drilling cycle, target depth of X-.8035, .050" peck depth, retract plane of X.750, 3.3ipm]
G80 [cancel canned cycle]
M25; [cross live tool stop]
G00 X5.4331 W0.0 T0: [rapid to X5.4332 in T0 - this will center the cross slide]
The G98 line is the only thing I ADDED after removing a bunch of G01's and G00's so I imagine the problem is in there. Does anyone know what in tarnation I am doing wrong there? Does G83 maybe default to IPR? There's another G98 a few lines up so even though I think the one on the G83 line is activating initial X point retract we should still be in IPR mode from a few lines before the code I shared.
Thank you for your help!
