SPINDLE DOESNT START AT G97 S600 M3

[Jedi]

WHENEVER IT GETS TO THIS PART IN TH PROGRAM IT STOPS AND WAIS FOR ME TO PUSH START AGAIN ??? ANY IDEAS PLEASE.

[Boots]

Have you tried putting the M3 on its' own line right after the speed call ?

[tobyaxis]

Post the program here. Also consider that if the spindle is going CCW for the previous tool it might stop before going CW. Granted this is a speculation. Also is there an M1 (Optional Stop) or an M0 (Program Stop) anywhere before the spindle stops??

M30 (DOESNT RESET PROGRAM )
IF I PUT THE M03 AT THE G96 IT STOPS AT THAT LINE

This is pretty ODD to say the least. Have you contacted HAAS about this?? I would give them a call to see if they have an easy fix for you.

You could place the M3 alone in a sequence block to see if it that will work.

I wonder if anyone else gas experienced this??

Do you need the G97 to turn off "Constant Surface Speed " since it has not been turned on earlier in the program with a G96? This is how the top of our programs look.

I was taught:
First turn on spindle:
G97S400M13(with coolant)
Position in X and maybe Z to immediately affect RPM with the next lines:
G50S1800 (RPM Limitation in CSS)
G96S900 (CSS value)
Now go face...

Of course that was Fanuc. This is Haas.

Jedi,

There is nothing wrong with that code, it should run fine if that is a duplication of what's in the machine.
I have an 07 that ran fine for 1 year +/- then started doing odd things. It would run the program several blocks of information, and the highlighter on the monitor would be lagging behind several blocks of information. Also had other oddities without explanation. Had them come out and install a updated version of the control software, and that fixed the newly formed glitches. ( Had the foresight to call the problem in before the warranty ran out so it was a free service call.) If you have an old program for another job, load it and see if it functions the same, or plug same info in MDI and see if you get the same results. If so, I would suspect you have a software issue.

Regards
Paul

What happens if you remove the G00 from the tool change line? Also what is setting 42 set to?

I am really curious about setting 42 (M00 after tool change) - I think this could be it.

How does this get changed without someone doing it manually??

It doesn't. People turn it on and then forget about it or someone else turns it on and does not tell anyone.
