Spindle not orientating after rigid tapping

When I do a tapping operation on my Haas DM-2 with Pre-NGC the spindle is not orientating at the end of the tapping, so this results in the spindle not being lined up correctly for the tool holder arm.

If I change parameter 133 to (0) off then it does orientate, but then I will have cross threading issues if thats turned off.

Here is a copy of my G-code that was created using the latest Haas PP for Fusion 360

I thought Haas always oriented the tool before a tool change no matter what.
You could try replacing M5 with M19.
 
I spoke with our Haas dealer today on this and it sounds like it may be a known issue ( not on every machine... but some of the machines ) ( possibly due to a glitch during the install of the software on the machine )

He had me do a test by adding a few lines of code at the end of the tapping operation in order to force the machine to run the spindle at low RPM for a split second.

After this was added the machines spindle oriented correctly.

Here are the two lines added at the end of the tapping operation.

S100 M3
G4 P500

So we are going to have the software reloaded on the machine as the permanent fix ( hopefully )
 
Depending on how old the software is and how experienced your tech is you -might - consider upgrading to a later version of classic control.

Hello...

My DM-2 is a 2016 with classic control.

My current software on the machine is VER M18.29B

I am not sure if this is the latest classic control version ?
 
It's a 2016 with classic control.

I checked and the repeat rigid tap is turned on.

Thanks,

Kent
