Thanks for the responses. I have decided to program like Al suggested on the first end, touch the part to the tool. Then do something like mrainey and Al suggested for the second end. I won't bore jaws for this run, since it is only 10 parts, but instead will just use a gage block to space the part from the face. I will do another set of tool offsets and run the 2nd end as a seperate secondary operation.
Does anyone know of a manual for CNC Programming that is written in a way that is understandable? The Fanuc Manual will leave you "mumbling" to yourself in an unrecognizable language! |
