Posted this in the Haas forum but maybe someone here can add any insight...
It seems the Renishaw probing cycles included with our new UMC-500 do not include macro programs to probe & align the C axis, Having run other 5 axis machines with Fanuc and Mazak controls, that cycle was part of the 9818 macro. By specifying a "K" value, that would determine the probing axis. I do have a message sent to our local HFO but haven't heard back yet. Not sure why Haas wouldn't include this, especially with a 5 axis machine.. If anyone has any information they could share it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
