Hello,
I'm writing a postprocessor for one of our companies, for a Puma mill/turn, with Fanuc 18i-TB. We have a Kiaturn, with Fanuc Oi-TB. I was assuming the code would be the same, but I'm getting feedback from the operator of this machine that says otherwise. This is an example of code for our machine:
G76P00060Q10R10
G76X.1277Z-.508I0K.0182D.0075F.0313
This is what he's saying it should be:
G76P000060Q10R.001
G76X.1257Z-.5I0.P192Q80F.03125
It's not the slight differences in value of the parameters I'm worried about, but the fact that they're different addresses. I'm not used to seeing R.001 on the first line; thought it needed to be R10.
I'm used to seeing D on 2nd line for depth of cut, K for thread height. I'm seeing P & Q on this line.
He's reporting getting an alarm when running the first example.
What gives? I thought that a later model Fanuc would have the same G76 coding.
