    Default Fanuc O-T(F) - Advice please!

    Hi Guys,

    Got myself a Colchester CNC350 running a Fanuc O-T(F) controller. Now need to learn how to programme it. We have the manuals that come with the machine, and are conversant with CNC milling programming and machining in general so hope to be able to get up to speed quite quickly. Any recommendations for reading material to help us 'self learn'? Bearing in mind we are new to G-code..

    Thanks in advance.

    You could also use the free G code simulator such as http://www.cncsimulator.com/

    Cheers Al. I had a quick look at the CNC Simulator website, looks promising - but does it do turning or just milling?
