Program Rotation On 15m Control

[diggityds]

My Question Is If There Is A Way To Rotate Pgms On A Fanuc 15m Control Makino. We Have A Custom Dnc System That Rotates Pgms Easily And We Usually Only Rotate In 90 Degree Incraments, But It Can't Handle I Or J Codes That Are Cam Posts Out For Contouring. It Handles Only Simple Drilling Cycles. I Would Like To Program A Part And Have The Operator Be Able To Rotate To However He Sets Up The Stock. We Have Different Size Machinery So Depending On The Stock Size Sometimes They Have To Change The Setup Differently Then How I Program It, Then I Would Have To Repost The Pgm With The Correct Rotation Wich Eats Up Into My Already Busy Programming Time. Any Suggestions Would Be Helpfull. Thanks

I know that CimcoEditor, NcEdit, Predator... has the future to rotate the part what every angle you want. But if you don't want to spend many money and your set up only rotate 90deg. You can do it with Microsoft words, Excel, or any software that is simular.

If your controller can do coordinated rotation and scaling just do it at the machine G68

15M on a makino.....

I'm with Lakeside here. Use a G68 for program rotation at the machine. Then you could go to any rotation angle....
