StarSV32 Toolnose compensation on Turret

[TommiL]

I can't figure out how to get my toolnose compensation working when milling with the turret. So i would appreciate if someone with experience with SV32 could give me a program example. I have been trying a lot of things. But I'm getting an fault when activating toolnose compensation.

PS: Sorry for my english. It's a long time since I've used it last.

for toll comp in a Turn/Mill machine you must befamilliar with the differance of a Lathe and Mills Both Horizontals and Verticals. Because this is what you have 3 machines in 1.

you have to change you "PLANE SELECTION" G17 G18 G19 depending if you are turning, milling on the face, or milling on the diameter.

I've been using G17, and been milling in B and Y?

what is program lines like? one line before you turn on comp. the line you turn on comp and line befor you shut off and line you shut off comp.., also what is error message?

[TommiL]

It is a "long" time since I've had the error. So I don't remember the error.
I had to use another solution. At the moment I'm doing it this way.

G1 Yx. Fx
G17 G2 Bx Y-x. Rx Fx
G17 G2 Bx Yx. Rx. Fx

That is how i recall it. But it would be a lot easier if I could just regulate the R-value in my offset instead of my program.

The error says something about the original plane selection. I'm not by the machine until monday night, so i can't give the exact error message.

Don't you have a suggestion for an example that are supposed to work with Fanuc16i?
