Mazak QT-15 with T2 progaming radius on end of bar

davestearman · Jul 30, 2018

Working with a QT-15 with T2 controller and I need to machine a radius on the end/face of a bar.

Can anyone tell me how to program this using this controller. Manuals are not the greatest at explaining such processes.

Thanks

There are a few ways to do it. A quick easy way would look like this:

1) EDG process to face the saw-cut end.
2) BAR_OUT where End X is your finish diameter.
Starting Corner: (press the leftmost softkey "corner R") and type in your corner radius, press input.

Hopefully that makes sense.
If you don't want to turn the OD, just program the end-x of the BAR_OUT process to be about .005" larger than your bar.
