Machine: Doosan DNM650
Control: FANUC Oi-D
Is there a setting to limit the machine travel? I want to put a large part on the machine where it would be possible to hit the guards or back of the machine if traveling too far. I can do all my machining without hitting anything but want a foolproof method of making sure the machine will not allow movements past a certain point. I feel this should be able to be done with a control setting somewhere. Does this ability exist and where? I suppose some limit switch could be rigged up to the e-stop as a mechanical method, but I am hoping there is a method for setting in the control.
