Incremental Z Depths In Drilling - CNCzone.com-The Largest Machinist Community on the net!

Litnin · #1 05-04-2003, 09:19 PM

I've been trying to get my post (mastercam) to output incremental z depths in drilling cycles, but I can't seem to manage it.
The z depth has to be an inc. value from the R plane.
The control is a Hidenhien TNC430 iso. Which requires the z depth to be incremental.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thnx.

Litnin.

are you posting in iso or heid convaersational?

did you try cadcam's sugg. from the other board?

sorry after reading your post properly your posting in iso.
In m\c check top of stock to increamental,and drill deepths to increamental.Your geometry for the drilling positions will have to be drawn at the different z levels.

Thnx. I'll get it a try.
I'll give Cadcam's one a try too.
