Pratt & Whitney Mill Drills Possible M-Codes

[tobyaxis]

Thsi question is way out there but I have to ask because the shop has no Manuals for these Machines.

Machine is a Pratt & Whitney Mill Drill 10 and 12 Tool Rotating Umbrellas CAT30 I think.

Control is a Fanuc 0M
Year is from 1990 to 1995.

All Possible Miscellanious Code possibilities.
The G-Codes seem to be basic but if there are any specials like G12/G13 I'd like to know.

M29S??? is for Rigid Tapping. Are there any others aside from M0 to M19?

Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
There is M8(coolant on)-M9(coolant off)-M19(orient spindle)-M2(program end)- M30(program end and rewind to start)- M5(turn off spindle)-M3(spindle cw)-M4(spindle ccw)-M0(program stop)-M01(optional stop-Note: you should have an optional stop soft key/button to do this). I use a combination of M-Codes if my tool changer gets hung up-M19,M81,M82,M83,M84,M85.This sequnce is like single blocking through a tool change. Hope some of these will help.

M19 is Spindle Origin for ATC, but what are the definitions for M81, M82, M83, M84, and M85?

[quadbob]

M81 brings tool in waiting down, and arm over to pick it
M82 brings the arm down with the tool
M83 swings the arm 180 to position under spindle
M84 brings the arm up to locate toll into spindle
M85 swings arm back to original postion
Don't forget that M19 must be first to orient spindle, before any of the other m-codes will work.

This machine doesn't change tools like that. There isn't an Arm for ATC. It is a Rotary Drum Type like this.

Unfortunately the M codes are machine specific, they are written by the MTB so you will need to get hold of someone who has the same machine or go to the manuf.
Fanuc will not have them.
BTW I sent you the Fanuc manuals.

Something to get you going on the rigid tapping.
I programmed one years ago.

Recieved them this morining AL. THANKS!!!!!!!

Wayne Thanks for the example program.

Thanks for your Insite too QuadBob.

What is weird about this with the understanding of M-Code Designations being Machine Tool Builder Specific, why did these fellow coworkers get on my case for not knowing the M29 Rigid Tapping Mode?

To be honest this is the first time I have ever seen it done this way. Usually when a machine has Rigid Tapping you just program your Canned Cycle and the Control does the rest. Very simple in most respects to Programming.

A Big Thanks to everyone for their help with this Programming Issue!!!!

Thanks Guys!!!!!!!

Tobyaxis,

I have a rigid peck tapping macro if you are interested. It is written in Macro A.

Sure that would be cool. I don't know much about Macros but have NC Plot V2 that will help. Can you post it here, or would you like me to send you a PM with my email address?

[WayneHill]

Here is the Macro A Code:

Thanks a lot Wayne. This will come in very handy.
I only have one question.
How do you apply the M29 Rigid Tapping Function?

Here is what Fanuc has for the 0M (thanks to AL_The_Man)
